Title: Could DeFi support leveraged trading?
Post by: cryptoperkele on October 13, 2020, 11:37:11 PM
Yeah, this might be a stupid question but could this work? Or what it would require to work?
I am guessing first problems could be tx times and maybe open blockchain that enables bots to follow your every move and front running.
 
But there are probably numerous things i haven't thought about because the idea just hit me moment ago and i just wanted to ask from someone in here who understand this subject better.

This just came to my mind after listening to people who were telling me that CEX days are numbered and i was trying to imagine what kind of DEX alternatives there could be in the future.

I think it would be terrible if that happened then there would be a lot of price games that might make a lot of people lose and could also make them profit quickly, because YFI's very fast price movements will make the heart vibrate when trading leveraged.

I am not talking about trading leveraged YFI for example, but building DeFi exchange that has build in leveraged trading. Maybe even futures and such...
