2. While the lack of trustworthy Liquidity Providers doesn’t follow XM’s strict risk management policy for investors’ benefit, XM must trade with the top quality and trustworthy liquidity providers as it is the company’s service policy.
3. XM is concerned about often widened spread and extremely high volatility that can lead to collapse of the market itself.

XM also mentioned about the difference of Cryptocurrency’s market prices among Crypto-exchanges.
