Wholesale transactions in the context of digital assets refer to large-volume trades typically conducted between institutional investors, large enterprises, or market makers. These transactions often involve significant amounts of cryptocurrency or other virtual assets. They are distinct from retail trades due to their scale and impact on market liquidity. Wholesale transactions play a substantial role in price discovery and market stability.
