According to BlockBeats, Market Maker as a Service (MaaS) is a comprehensive set of tools designed to enhance on-chain liquidity provision for protocol owners. MaaS provides sophisticated on-chain inventory management, efficient market maker position rebalancing, and advanced algorithmic trading tools.
MaaS is suitable for protocol owners at different stages of development, from pre-token launch to mature projects after launch. It provides customizable liquidity provision strategies, real-time market analysis and risk management tools.
On-chain market makers improve capital efficiency and market depth by pooling liquidity, but require more active management and complex risk management strategies.
Under MaaS, protocol owners deposit project tokens and ether or stablecoins into Aperture-hosted vaults, and assets can only be withdrawn by protocol owners. MaaS is responsible for dynamically maintaining market liquidity and provides enterprise-level flexibility by supporting maker and taker rebalancing strategies.
Algorithmic trading tools are part of the MaaS tool suite, and users can use TWAP or VWAP functions to acquire or liquidate assets through market makers or underwriters in AMM.
