Go big or go home. This year marks 8 years since BitMEX earned its name as the inventor of the 100x leverage perpetual swap.
So we’re upping our leverage game – and considerably so.
Why are we doing such a thing? Our 100x leverage was created to give every trader, regardless of their available capital, a chance to make big gains with crypto. Fast forward to today – Bitcoin prices are more than 500% higher and market volatility is significantly lower. Such a change in markets calls for different trading opportunities.
So we’re excited to introduce Leverage Booster on BitMEX, allowing you to trade with up to 250x leverage.
To be clear… This is for the bold and daring – those aiming for the Lambos and Ferraris. It’s not for everyone, and trading with leverage has risks (see here).
Keen to give it a shot? Read on.
If you haven’t signed up for a BitMEX account yet, we’re currently offering 5,000 USD worth of BMEX Tokens to new users – you can register here.
How to Trade with Leverage Booster on BitMEX
From 19 April 2024 at 07:00 UTC, 250x leverage is available to any verified user on BitMEX trading with Isolated Margin.
Ready to get started?
- Hover over your account profile icon on the top right corner of your trading UI.
