DARK POOLS AND OTC: WHY ELON MUSK'S BILLION-DOLLAR PURCHASES DON'T PUMP CRYPTO INSTANTLY? 🏛️🤫
"Company X bought $2 billion worth of Bitcoin! But why didn't the chart even flinch at the moment of purchase?! We're being played!" No need to panic, it's just that big players aren't buying on the spot exchange.
• If a whale throws a $2 billion order into the regular order book, the price will shoot to the moon, and they'll end up buying the asset at 3 times the price. That's why OTC platforms (over-the-counter markets) and Dark Pools exist.
• They trade massive volumes directly with each other at a fixed price off-exchange. In the order book — silence. And only after weeks of accumulation does this volume start to gradually and technically push the market forward.
