Understanding ANIME Leverage Trading
Leverage trading for ANIME will be available through a USDT trading pair. This allows you to open larger positions by borrowing funds, amplifying both potential profits and losses.
The platform uses a tiered margin system to manage risk. This means the amount of leverage available will change based on the size of your position. For the most accurate and current information on these tier levels, it is essential to consult the official documentation after the launch.

Earning and Borrowing with ANIME
Beyond spot and leverage trading, you can put your ANIME holdings to work through two primary services:
Simple Earn: This product allows you to commit your ANIME tokens for a fixed term to earn passive interest. The specific rates and terms will be published upon the product's launch.
Flexible Loans: This feature enables you to borrow other cryptocurrencies by using your ANIME holdings as collateral. This provides liquidity without needing to sell your assets. Details on loan-to-value ratios and interest rates will be available when the service goes live.

Understanding Funding Rates
A key mechanism in perpetual contracts is the funding fee, which is periodically exchanged between long and short traders to keep the contract price aligned with the spot index price.
- Calculation: The rate is calculated based on the difference between the perpetual contract's mark price and the underlying spot index price.
- Frequency: These fees are settled every 4 hours.
- Rate Cap: To ensure stability for a new listing, the maximum funding rate will be temporarily capped at 0.5% until January 24, 2025, at 00:00 (UTC+8). After this time, the cap will return to the standard ±1.5%. The first settlement under the normal cap will occur at 04:00 (UTC+8) on January 24.
- Adjustments: The platform reserves the right to adjust the funding rate mechanism if significant market deviations occur.
All other standard trading rules for USDT-margined perpetual contracts, such as limit orders and other order types, apply to ANIME. For a comprehensive understanding of the terms and conditions, always refer to the official user agreement.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between trading ANIME spot vs. perpetual contracts?
Spot trading involves buying and selling the actual ANIME token itself. Perpetual contracts are derivatives that allow you to speculate on the price movement of ANIME without owning the underlying asset, and they offer the use of leverage.
How can I start earning yield on my ANIME tokens?
You can use the Simple Earn product to commit your ANIME for a fixed period and earn interest. The specific annual percentage yield (APY) will be determined by market demand and will be visible once the product is live.
What risks are associated with leverage trading?
Leverage trading magnifies both gains and losses. While it can significantly increase profits from small price movements, it can also just as quickly amplify losses, potentially exceeding your initial investment. It is crucial to understand risk management strategies before using leverage.
Why was the initial funding rate cap set lower?
Newly listed perpetual contracts can experience higher price volatility and potential premium instability. The temporary 0.5% funding rate cap helps protect traders from extreme fees during this initial period of price discovery.
Can I use ANIME as collateral for a loan?
Yes, through the flexible loan service. You can lock your ANIME tokens as collateral to borrow other supported cryptocurrencies, giving you access to funds without closing your ANIME position.
Where can I find the most detailed and updated trading rules?
The official documentation pages for margin trading, Simple Earn, and the perpetual swap user agreement contain the most precise and legally binding information. Always review these resources.
