Crypto Market Making
Markets with low liquidity generally have wide bid-ask spreads in their order books, increasing the volatility of the asset. This makes it more difficult for traders to get a good price for their trades and have their orders filled. Simply stated, the liquidity of an asset is its availability for buyers and sellers to easily trade it at any given time. Market Making aims to:
- Increase market liquidity and order book depth
- Mitigate dramatic price swings
- Assist with fair price discovery
- Create more efficient bid-ask spreads in cryptocurrency exchange order books

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Where does crypto OTC trading happen?
OTC trading occurs directly between two parties, with one usually being a trading desk. It deals with larger volume transactions compared to exchanges.
2. When do you use crypto OTC trading instead of crypto exchanges?
Exchange-related risks are minimized when executing through an experienced trading desk. When trading large volumes, liquidity can be highly fragmented on exchanges. Market depth can be opaque, and understanding real liquidity in crypto markets takes time and experience. Trading large transaction amounts through one exchange can cause slippage, increasing the overall cost of the trade.
3. Why do Crypto OTC desks exist?
OTC crypto trading desks cater to traders looking to execute high-volume transactions unsuitable for exchanges. OTC desks offer a more tailored and bespoke trading service compared to exchanges.
