Over-the-counter (OTC) trades are facilitated by our professional trading experts and is for customers looking to buy or sell large amounts of crypto. Exchange trading is where a market order is placed on a public order book, where anyone can make smaller trades with instant settlement.

For most digital asset traders, trading on a transparent, reliable exchange like Independent Reserve will satisfy all trading needs. However, for large volume block trades ($50,000 and above), executing all at once on an exchange is likely to have a negative impact on the price the order gets filled at. This is what’s known as price slippage. OTC trading eliminates this risk.

Our OTC desk offers investors looking to make large transactions certain benefits such as a personalised service with increased privacy, price slippage reduction, access to deep liquidity, and market insights from our professional traders.

OTC orders are typically settled within a few business hours of the trade being placed. For certain deals we may need up to one business day. If you have specific requirements for settlement, we are happy to work with you to meet your needs.

You can buy and sell all major cryptocurrencies and stablecoins using our OTC desk, including:

• USDT (tether)
