Eagle means freedom

Many cryptocurrency enthusiasts are attracted to coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum because they enable you to have sovereign control over your money. With a simple number, one is able to access value that can be transferred globally with no state or bank intermediary.

But true sovereign personal finance is more than just having sovereign access to crypto assets. True sovereignty includes having the tools to manage risk too. As we mentioned before: trading is the primary use case in crypto. There is a practical need for cryptocurrency holders to balance their risk. We’ve all got fiat bills to pay, not the least of which the tax man, who only accepts his own fiat.

Leveraged derivatives are becoming a more a common tool that crypto traders use to aid in achieving this — recently the daily BTC/USD notional volume has exceeded $1 billion regularly. Despite Ethereum having a market cap of almost half of Bitcoin, there is not a properly developed futures market to coincide. There’s a $500 million in daily volume on the table if the trading interest is on par with the market cap ratio.

The Leverj platform will empower Ethereum holders with the ability to hedge price risk by trading ETH/USD inverse futures, allowing traders to lock in the USD value of their Ether. The market will be decentralized so that only the minimum margin necessary will be out of user control for risk management purposes.

Furthermore, with the LEV token, any volume generated on the exchange will be transformed into FEE coupons and distributed to stakers pro rata. This means you can hold LEV and trade for free if you stake and cover your fees on the exchange.

Crypto markets are a truly free market, hence why volatility is here to stay. With Leverj, you can utilize tools to balance market risk and capitalize on it too.
