-
What does Crypto OTC Trading Desk mean?
- OTC trading (meaning over the counter) is a business where two market participants transfer manually (privately peer-to-peer) from one wallet to another wallet after agreeing on the transfer conditions. These trades are taking place outside of the exchanges and exchanges order books.
-
Why do we need Crypto OTC Trading Desks?
- If you want to exchange high volumes of Fiat-to-Crypto or Crypto-to-Crypto it does not make sense to go via an on-chain order book of a Crypto exchange because you would move the order book heavily (several percentage points) and you would get an unpredictable and bad price for your trade. The liquidity for big (whale) trades is not enough at Crypto Exchanges. That is the reason why we see active Over-the-Counter trading with professional OTC Trading Desks.

-
Crypto OTC Trading fees
- The fees for Crypto OTC trading depend on different factors. There is no clear number to share because the services have different service tiers, the agreements can be negotiated individually. These factors are important:
-
B2B or B2C clients
-
Cryptocurrency (existing or upcoming token)
-
Volume
-
Number of transactions
-
Transfer arrangement
-
The fees for OTC Trading services vary from 0.1 % to 1 %.
-
Selecting a Crypto OTC Provider?
- Before selecting a Crypto OTC Trading service we recommend doing an intensive background check about the company. Three parts are important:
-
Jurisdiction of the OTC trading service (is it a trustworthy and highly regulated jurisdiction?)
-
The reputation of the OTC Trading service (Make an intensive background check, online and offline)
-
Licenses and Regulation (Is the Crypto OTC company regulated and has a license for trading services?)
- Moreover, you should check the reputation and quality of the OTC Trading service in your blockchain network.
