What is the Kraken OTC Desk?
Kraken’s over-the-counter (OTC) desk offers a premium service that allows traders to execute orders off the open Kraken exchange. We offer deeper liquidity for tighter spreads as well as a more private, personalized service for institutional clients and high net-worth individuals needing to fill large orders of Frax Shares. Kraken’s OTC desk provides execution and settlement services that are discreet, secure and ultra-competitive.
About Frax Shares
Frax is a fractional-algorithmic stablecoin protocol encompassing a two token system. The Frax stablecoin (FRAX) combines crypto collateral and algorithmic mechanisms to remain pegged to the value of the dollar and the protocol is governed by a community of Frax Share (FXS) holders. FXS is used to propose and vote on changes to the protocol, such as adjustments to the fee structure, collateral pools and the collateral ratio.
