A market taker is a person who fulfils a market order by accepting it. Liquidity takers are another name for market takers. Market takers take from the order book, to put it another way.
Market takers are regular people who conduct market transactions and purchase an asset at the asking price. These investors are betting that, in the short or long term, the new asset will increase the value of their portfolio.
Market makers and market takers are not in rivalry. It is a symbiotic system in which they both depend on one another to function. Both of them are necessary for the system to function because they each have specific functions to play.
