When I lost $600 overnight on ADA, DOGE, SOL with wild leverage, I blamed myself. But looking back, it's clearer. Perpetual futures' core design, especially that ruthless liquidation engine, isn't just about managing risk for the exchange. It's a well-oiled machine for liquidating high-leveraged retail positions, collecting fees and capitalizing on our forced exits. Institutions use them for hedging and complex strategies. We're just chasing volatility, unknowingly feeding a system perfectly built to profit when we stumble. Are we trading, or just fuel for their profit engine?

Hey everyone. We need to talk about why exchanges *love* high leverage. It's not complicated: their liquidation engine is designed to profit from it. When you open a 50x or 100x position, even a tiny price swing against you triggers an automated liquidation. Your initial margin? Gone. The exchange closes your position, often at a less-than-ideal price, and collects significant liquidation fees, plus standard trading fees on that forced close. My ADA, DOGE, SOL losses were pure profit for them. It’s a structurally sound business model that thrives on retail overexposure. Think about that. Are you truly trading, or just consistently feeding their revenue stream?
