Go long or short on SPL tokens with more flexibility than ever before.

Trading cryptocurrency is generally simple, but what if you’re looking for options that are a bit more advanced? That’s where margin trading comes in.

Margin trading lets you amplify your gains from market swings, allowing you to execute more complex, active trading strategies but such services are not readily available in DeFi. Most DeFi protocols offer 2x leverage at max.

With the power of BladesLev, you can use leverage to go long or short on a variety SPL tokens inlcuding BTC, ETH, SRM as well as SOL by up to 5x — you’ll have five times the earning potential compared to a regular spot trade. More trading pairs will be added gradually with time.

Trade safely. We are one of few exchanges to offer cross margin on Solana, so your margin is shared between your positions and backed by your entire wallet balance, reducing the risk of liquidation.

Risk Warning

Leveraged trading is a high-risk activity that can result in losses that exceed deposits. BladesLev is still in BETA. Taking on such risk may not be suitable for everyone, which is something you’ll have to decide for yourself. Before trading on leverage, make sure that you fully understand the risks and costs involved
