exit liquidity
The retail buyers smart money dumps their bags on.
Definitions
The unlucky late buyers who provide the cash for insiders, VCs or whales to cash out. If you're buying a token at the top while the team is selling, congratulations — you ARE the exit liquidity. The phrase is half technical (it's a real market-microstructure term) and half savage burn aimed at copers buying obvious tops.
The new buyers whose purchases provide the demand that lets earlier investors sell out at a profit, often leaving the latecomers holding losses as the price falls. To be 'someone's exit liquidity' is to be the bagholder they sold to.
