Introduction:
The crypto industry is experiencing turbulence as regulatory challenges loom large. Recent accusations from the SEC against Coinbase and Binance for their failure to register as brokers have raised concerns within decentralized finance and the crypto markets. Over-the-Counter (OTC) securities, which refer to unrestricted securities traded directly between two parties outside of formalized exchanges, play a significant role in this landscape.
The Importance of OTC Securities:
OTC securities are traded through decentralized networks or electronic platforms, distinguishing them from stocks and bonds traded on major exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) or NASDAQ. Their unrestricted nature and direct trading between parties provide flexibility and unique opportunities in the market.
