There’s often confusion around the real difference between a crypto exchange and a crypto OTC broker.

In this week’s education segment, I break it down clearly and simply — so you understand who uses what, and why it matters.

🔹 Public order books vs private negotiations
🔹 Transparent and market-driven price discovery vs pre-negotiated and not public pricing
🔹 Retail-focused platforms vs institutional execution
🔹 Small trades vs large block transactions
🔹 When privacy and customization become critical

If you're active in crypto — whether as a retail trader, founder, or institutional investor — understanding this distinction is essential.

Because how you execute a trade can matter just as much as what you’re trading.
