How Binance Leveraged Tokens Work?

Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has launched a new type of token that it says will offer users “leverage” when trading digital assets.

The new token, called Binance Leveraged Token (BLVT), is a ERC20 token that is pegged to the price of Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH). When users buy BLVT, they are buying a token that tracks the price of BTC or ETH and gives them leverage of up to 3x.

If the price of BTC goes up by 1%, the price of BLVT will go up by 3%. If the price of BTC goes down by 1%, the price of BLVT will go down by 3%.

NOTE: Warning: Leveraged tokens are highly-speculative, high-risk tools and should be used only by experienced traders who understand the risks and rewards associated with them. Leveraged tokens involve a considerable degree of risk, including extreme volatility, low liquidity, and the potential for complete loss of capital. Leveraged tokens are not suitable for all investors, so please ensure you understand how they work and the risks involved before investing in them.

The launch of BLVT comes as Binance prepares to launch its own margin trading platform, which is currently in beta testing. The platform will allow users to trade with leverage of up to 20x on a variety of digital assets.

The new token is designed to offer a similar experience to margin trading, but without the need to actually borrow funds from Binance.

BLVT is available for trading on Binance’s spot and margin trading platforms. The token is currently only available for BTC and ETH, but Binance plans to add more assets in the future.

Binance says that the new token is designed for “advanced traders” and that it is not suitable for everyone. The exchange advises users to carefully consider their risk tolerance before investing in BLVT.
