What is the risk geometry of Bitcoin securities? From clearing mechanisms to liquidity runs

Abstract generation in progress

【Crypto World】Bitcoin-backed securities products hide multiple risks. These tools, which use Bitcoin as collateral, face direct impacts from price fluctuations. Even more dangerous is that when the market suddenly turns sharply downward, the liquidation trigger mechanism can instantly amplify losses—one trigger point could trigger a chain reaction.

This is not alarmist. The successive bankruptcies of cryptocurrency lending institutions have sounded the alarm, and the 49% plunge of Bitcoin in March 2020 is a vivid lesson. Complex financial products layered with counterparty risk exposure, if not handled carefully, can lead to systemic risk.

Ultimately, participating in such products requires more cautious financing strategies and a more comprehensive risk management system. It’s not just about looking at returns; details like liquidation clauses, margin ratios, and liquidity mechanisms in the procedures must be closely monitored. The market is teaching us that greed is the most expensive tuition.

Once the liquidation mechanism is triggered, it's a nightmare... I was just saying you shouldn't play with leverage too aggressively.

Once the liquidation mechanism is triggered, leveraged positions explode instantly. I've seen too many greedy people lose everything.

Once the liquidation mechanism is triggered, it's game over. I've seen so many people lose everything due to leveraged liquidations... It's really time to reflect on your own risk exposure.

Greed is such an apt word. It's always the same—knowing the risks but still using leverage, and then crying when liquidation happens.

You really need to keep a close eye on the liquidation mechanism; so many people have been liquidated to the point of questioning their lives...

As for the liquidation mechanism, to put it simply, the project team wants to reap profits while avoiding responsibility, so they set a seemingly "reasonable" liquidation threshold, and that's it. The milk powder money for my three kids was just lost due to this betting agreement.
