Off-exchange buying refers to the acquisition of digital assets directly between parties, outside of centralized cryptocurrency exchanges. These transactions often occur through over-the-counter (OTC) desks or private agreements, typically involving large block trades that could otherwise impact exchange market prices. This method allows for discreet and often more stable price execution for significant volumes.
Context
News reports frequently cite off-exchange buying as an indicator of institutional interest and significant capital allocation into digital assets. When large entities purchase cryptocurrencies off-exchange, it suggests a long-term holding strategy and can signal underlying demand not immediately visible on public order books. This activity is closely monitored for insights into market sentiment and potential future price movements.
