How Do ETF Leveraged Tokens Differ from Spot, Margin, and Futures Trading?
Compare ETF leveraged tokens with traditional trading methods to understand their unique features.
Spot Trading: Users buy and sell cryptocurrencies using fiat or stablecoins (e.g., USDT) and immediately receive ownership of the asset.
Margin Trading: Users borrow funds to amplify their position size, increasing both potential gains and losses. Leverage is determined by the borrowed amount relative to the user’s collateral.
Futures Trading: Users trade derivative contracts with leverage, which dynamically adjusts based on position value. High leverage increases the risk of liquidation if the margin is insufficient.
ETF Leveraged Tokens: These tokens have built-in leverage, amplifying asset price movements without requiring margin or borrowing. Users can trade them like spot assets without worrying about liquidation.

Celestia represents a fundamental redesign of blockchain architecture through its modular approach. Instead of requiring every blockchain to handle execution, settlement, consensus, and data availability within a single system, Celestia separates these functions into specialized layers. This allows developers to create sovereign and application-specific blockchains that outsource data availability and consensus to Celestia while retaining full control over their execution environments.
