The Over the Counter (OTC) feature is used to execute larger trades directly with a counterparty without having to go through the public order books.
Through our OTC desk, traders will be able to access digital currency liquidity without affecting the exchange market price.
Two ways to take advantage of the OTC desk
1. Access instant liquidity through Bitfinex’s OTC desk
2. Trade directly with another Bitfinex user.
