Frequently asked · Crypto Derivatives
What is the primary difference between spot trading and crypto derivatives?
Spot trading involves the direct purchase and ownership of the underlying cryptocurrency, whereas derivatives allow traders to speculate on price movements without owning the asset itself.
What are perpetual contracts?
Perpetual contracts are a type of derivative similar to futures but without an expiration date, allowing traders to hold positions indefinitely while tracking the spot market price.
Why do traders use leverage in crypto derivatives?
Leverage allows investors to control larger asset positions with a smaller amount of capital, though it increases the risk of liquidation if market conditions move against the position.
