Are there any trusted exchanges that allow margin funding as bitfinex has discontinued support in my country after 3 years of business it just sucks.

Try bitmex. That is the most popular one, but they do not offer USD deposits or USD wallets. You trade everything with BTC(XBT) and withdraw your profits in BTC. ;)

Do you mean margin funding or margin trading? Have you ever used Kraken? It's definitely not the best exchange and doesn't have the best liquidity but for margin trading it is pretty well known and for the most part they are trusted.

I have never had any issues with them when depositing or trying to withdraw. The only real issue with the exchange is that liquidity is not always available and when margin trading, the rollover fees can amount to something pretty substantial depending on trade size and length of course.

Hope this helps...

Others exchanges that offer margin trading is OKEX, Huobi, Bibox, Poloniex and Bitmex futures trading. Okex exchange also offer crypto futures trading, this exchanges has more product than others.

You can use Poloniex here is the first exchange using margin. I believe it can solve the problems you are looking for. And there are a lot of exchange websites that also have margin functionality. But I advise you to quit this because it's like a trap and you're a prey that's going to become a big piece of meat.

I am talking about funding for passive income. I am not looking for trading contracts.

Thanks yes I can provide funding in polo but I dont trust them as heard of bad things.

Platform that similar with Bitmex is Finbitex.com ,Other platform to trade crypto by use margin and leverage is Meta trader, now many regulated broker provide crypto pair in their platform. One of the good broker is FX Open, this broker has lower spread than other, and also we can make deposit by different currencies, like BTC, LTC,USD,EUR,GBP.

 so first off let's get rid of the term 'margin funding' because what you're really doing when you choose to fund a margin trader is lending coins to them. When you offer a margin funding loan and it is accepted by a margin trader this is what happens.

Friends, I think it's time to understand. There are no such trading platforms that can be trusted. Since they are all in the gray zone of the law, they can not be trusted with funds that you are not afraid to lose. Do not keep your assets on stock exchanges.

Yes exactly, actually thats they way bitfinex puts it so used the same term. But yes lending is a better term but in this case only in exchange where its secured.

Gate.io exchange just launch margin trading and they offer only leverage 3x and this is good for beginner trader. This exchange offering alot of different crypto, and will be good platform to shorting when the price crypto downtrend.

Bitmex offers margin trading, you have to use BTC for trading.  I have traded there without any problem so far. Sometimes, the platform will lag but not too often so it is acceptable.

Bitmex by far the biggest in this matter. They literally control the market if you look at their short and long futures. When the shorts are more than the possibility of bitcoin price going down is likely and when the longs are more than possibility of going up is more likely.

You can literally buy whichever is the most at that moment and you can be right and make profits from margin trading. Do not go for 51-49% times though, that is too close, I don't even do it when its around 60% or so, I need to make sure it will happen so I only go to the direction that has 70%+ invested. When longs are bought 70% versus 30% shorts than I buy longs and vice versa I do the other way when shorts are 70%. They are that big, they do not care about rest of the market because their volume is insane.

There are alot of margin trading platform but make sure we choose that have fully regulation and offer low leverage. I was try some different platform and i prefer to use metatrader platform because we can trade alot of different asset, not only crypto but also stocks and forex.
