Jitters
The term “jitters” is well known from a tweet posted by Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, the CEO of crypto exchange Binance. It means that the orders of trader A get stuck in the platform system, but the orders of traders B, C and D are not stuck, and the orders for the three of them get in front of trader A for priority processing. The traders B, C, and D in this scenario are called jiggers.
