Strong Form Efficiency
Strong form efficiency is the most extreme level of market efficiency, asserting that asset prices reflect all information, both public and private. This includes insider information that is not available to the general public.
If a market were strong-form efficient, even those with non-public information would be unable to generate abnormal returns because that information would already be factored into the price. In practice, no market is considered strong-form efficient, as insider trading often leads to significant price movements before the information becomes public.
In the crypto ecosystem, this is a significant concern regarding the actions of project developers and large holders who may possess private knowledge of future events.
