The spot market is a platform for "instant liquidity" of financial products. In the spot market, "liquidity" refers to the ability to exchange a financial product for cash. While this concept may seem straightforward, it is worth noting that some markets do not settle transactions instantly in cash.
In short, the spot market is a place where transactions are made "immediately". Since these transactions are settled instantly, the current market price of an asset is often referred to as the spot price.
