How OTC Trading Prevents Slippage

If you have ever traded on a DEX and wondered why you got less than expected, you have met slippage. It is the silent killer of profit. You set your price, confirm your trade, and by the time it executes, you are suddenly getting fewer tokens than you planned.

That happens because DEXs use liquidity pools, not direct buyers and sellers. When you trade, you change the ratio of tokens in the pool, and that shift moves the price. The bigger your trade, the bigger the move. It is why large buys and sells cause those painful swings on the chart.

Slippage does not just hurt big traders. It hits everyone in the ecosystem. Buyers overpay, sellers get undercut, and projects suffer from constant volatility that scares away new investors. It is one of the core weaknesses of automated market makers.

OTC trading changes that completely. When trades happen peer-to-peer, there are no liquidity pools to disturb. The buyer and seller agree on a fixed price, and the deal executes directly between them. The market stays stable, and both sides know exactly what they are getting.

That is what makes deOTC so powerful. It brings OTC functionality to DeFi, using smart contracts to lock in fair trades that happen off-market with zero price impact. It means no slippage, no guessing, and no surprises.

Trading should be about precision and trust, not uncertainty. With deOTC, traders finally get that control back.
