Why do many feel 'deceived' in Futures even though it's not a scam?🤡
Many new traders enter futures without understanding how the system works. One of the things that often surprises is the funding rate — the funding cost paid at certain time intervals.
The image I showed indicates that the FUN/USDT funding rate is currently -2.0000%, which means long positions are currently paying very high to short positions. This happens because too many are opening long positions in the market, and the system automatically balances these positions through the funding scheme.
Futures is not a scam, but it is designed for traders who understand the risks and the rules of the game. This is not a place for "just making profits" or blind speculation. Especially with high leverage, the risks of liquidation and costs like the funding rate can quickly deplete your capital.
Solution? Use spot for medium to long-term investments.
Without deductions every 2 hours, without liquidation, and safer for gradual accumulation. Futures is only suitable for those who are mentally prepared, knowledgeable, and ready to incur losses.
So before shouting "scam" or "fraud," make sure you truly understand the instrument you are using.
