Leverage trading is therefore considered as one of the biggest risks in trading, and you should not try this type of trading unless you are fully prepared to accept the risks involved.  Note: Leverage trading is not limited to crypto trading, leverage trading is a general t...

Fungible assets are items or things that can be easily swapped or exchanged because they are identical in value and features. For example, if I have a $100 bill in my wallet and you have the same amount in $20 notes, my money can be easily exchanged with yours. They are 100% interchangeable.
