Why Market Making Matters to You

You might not think about it often, but every time you buy or sell a token, you're being affected by decisions you don’t see. The reason your trade goes through quickly, close to the current market price? That’s because of market makers.

They’re the ones keeping things moving, placing constant maker orders, so there’s always someone on the other side. They earn from the gap between their buying and selling prices, called the spread. It sounds simple, but it’s not. Most of them run complex algorithms called grids, that let them profit whether the market goes up or down.

That’s how they stay in the game without having to guess where things are heading.

Most market makers use tools the average trader can’t access. Fast, automated algorithms that give them an edge, and lock everyone else out. That’s why many have wanted a way in. Until $RFRM, there wasn’t one.

But with these high-end tools comes an issue. A lot of current market makers abuse their position. They strike unfair deals, manipulate prices, and hide behind closed systems. It’s all about profit, not transparency.

After looking deeply into this, we knew it was time to reform the market making scene. The decision over what influences the public should be in the hands of the public.

Reform changes that.

We’re building the first community-led market making DAO, powered by AI, aligned with its holders, and here to flip the system in favor of those affected by it.

How $RFRM Lets You Participate in Market Making

Most people never benefit from the tools or roles that shape financial markets. $RFRM changes that. It’s your way into a space that’s typically closed off, giving you a stake in how liquidity is provided, how markets are stabilized, and how value flows through Reform.

Revenue and buybacks

Reform as a market maker drives revenue throuhg various sources. Liquidity Provision on central exchanges and designated market making for projects are the main pillars of the revenue streams. However, all of Reform’s additional products contribute to the revenue as well.

When Reform earns revenue through market making, part of that income is used to buy back $RFRM from the open market. These buybacks reduce supply and apply consistent demand pressure, linking token value directly to Reform’s trading performance. As a holder, you’re connected to how the system performs at its core.

Reform’s revenue comes from three main sources: exchange rebates, designated market making (DMM) agreements, and LuigiBot’s activity. To manage ongoing operational costs while still reinforcing $RFRM, each quarter:

  • 65% of positive net revenue is allocated directly to $RFRM buybacks

  • 35% remains in the DAO Treasury to ensure the long-term growth of our ecosystem.

Governance and Voting Power

$eRFRM (earned by staking $RFRM) gives you real voting power. That means you help decide how treasury funds are used, how strategies shift, and what happens next. Any change the team wants to make, whether it’s adjusting the revenue split or reallocating funds, must go through a community vote, which $eRFRM holders decide the outcome of.

You’re not just holding a token, you’re helping shape the direction and strategy of a market maker.

Staking and Rewards

Reform isn’t here for the short term, we’re here to stay. The staking model is our way of rewarding those who believe in the long game, who show up early, and help build alongside us. If you’re aligned with that vision, staking isn’t just a reward mechanism, it’s a seat at the table.

Reform rewards long-term commitment through two options: Single-Sided Staking (SSS) or Liquidity Pool Staking (LPS). When you stake $RFRM directly or provide $RFRM/$ETH liquidity, you earn a share of daily rewards drawn from a fixed pool of 25 million tokens.

Each day, 0.05% of this pool is distributed to the stakers of $RFRM, meaning early participants earn more, while emissions decrease over time to support long-term sustainability. It’s a system designed to reward those who commit and contribute to Reform’s growth.

This is how $RFRM turns you into an active participant in the mechanics of market making. It puts the tools and the influence into your hands. Following the implementation of , a total of 472 million RFRM tokens were burned, significantly reducing inflation and altering the tokenomics of the ecosystem.
