In 2024, the cryptocurrency market experienced a true boom in OTC trading. According to Finery Markets, the volume of OTC trades increased by +106% compared to 2023. And 2025 has not slowed down this trend. The reasons are clear:
✅ Large investors want to avoid impacting the market and attracting unnecessary attention.
Not long ago, I consulted with one of my clients. He wanted to purchase a significant amount of cryptocurrency but had one condition - no market impact. This coin was already in high demand, and any noticeable price jump could have triggered more buying, pushing the price up before my client completed the deal.
📍 So, we went OTC - direct trades between two parties, off the public order book.
🔹 Among the well-known platforms for such deals, we selected the WhiteBIT OTC trading platform and we executed the deal in just 4 minutes.
The platform allowed us to handle high liquidity seamlessly, attach transaction notes for clarity, and complete the trade without affecting the market price - a tiny 0.04% movement, almost negligible. Among the key advantages are the wide selection of fiat and cryptocurrencies, real quotes at up-to-date market prices, and live communication with a dedicated manager.
The client was satisfied, and the market remained stable. 🚀
🔹 We tested the same $XRP deal on Bitget OTC. The actual transaction was completed in just 10 minutes, however, as noted on their website, one of the steps involves making a fiat transfer or crypto deposit through the designated channel, which usually takes 1–3 business days.
Despite this, Bitget still proved a reliable option for large trades.
💡 OTC trading is a game-changer for large crypto transactions. Whether on WhiteBIT or Bitget, it allows you to move significant amounts of crypto quickly, discreetly, and without shaking the market.
