The month of February was a volatile month for the crypto currency market.

The downward trend in markets caused the number of active bots and open order volume to drop; however, miner activity swiftly rebounded. Our community's ability to weather and manage such challenging market conditions demonstrates the power and potential of decentralized market creation. Even in the midst of the most volatile markets, a large portion of our community continued to make markets and provide trading support for our various campaigns.

Filled order volume vs. reward pool
While liquidity mining does not compensate miners for filled order volume, the increased liquidity and order book depth created by miners does translate into increased trading efficiency and, consequently, additional trading volume. Trading volume is important for issuers since exchanges typically use traded volume as a benchmark to decide whether or not to maintain or remove token listings.

Note: Liquidity mining does not reward for filled order volume nor does it guarantee a certain amount of filled order volume. The above figures are based on historical data from currently running and historical liquidity mining campaigns.
