Q&A
What are CryptoGem Leveraged Tokens?
CryptoGem Leveraged Tokens are tradable assets in the CryptoGem spot market that leverage profits by going long/short on the underlying asset. For example, when price of BTC rises by 1%, the price of BTC3L will rise by 3% and the price of BTC3S will drop by 3%. Unlike margin trading or futures trading, no collateral or margin maintenance is required to hold leveraged tokens, and there are no liquidation risks. Note that leveraged tokens may experience high price volatility. Traders should be prudent with their investments.
Each CryptoGem Leveraged Token is a unit share of a leveraged fund. The fund manager ensures that the fund returns are based on a specific multiple of the underlying asset and that traders can gain that specific multiple of profits of the underlying asset. When the price volatility on the opposite side exceeds the threshold, a rebalancing mechanism is used to hedge risks to control the net loss.
When should I hold CryptoGem Leveraged Tokens?
The rebalancing mechanism makes CryptoGem Leveraged Tokens a good choice for one-sided market moves but a poor choice for fluctuating markets. When there is high volatility, there may be higher intraday losses. Traders should be cautious when investing.
