The Algorand Foundation partnered with Flow Traders to provide 24/7 institutional liquidity for ALGO. The collaboration uses Flow Traders' global execution infrastructure to make ALGO more accessible to institutional counterparties and expand liquidity coverage within the Algorand ecosystem.

The Foundation stated that the partnership leverages Flow Traders' execution infrastructure, while the Algorand account specified that the arrangement covers liquidity around the clock, addressing the gap that can arise when institutional participants need continuous market access.
