Over-the-counter (OTC) refers to the process of how assets are traded within the cryptocurrency field without the use of a trading exchange such as Binance, Kraken, or Coinbase. Cryptocurrency assets traded over-the-counter are executed via a broker-dealer network instead of a centralized exchange.
When trading cryptocurrency on any exchange, execution, competitive pricing, and risk mitigation are paramount. Exchanges are frequently hacked, user funds misappropriated, and network issues can often stop you from being able to log in and trade during busy or volatile periods.
Beyond technology issues and the risk of having your funds stolen, making large order executions is almost impossible without having fill issues or large slippage. Even via the best API connection socket, you will suffer from high fees, order slippage, order execution issues, and fill issues (especially if you attempt to move large quantities manually or via an automated strategy).
