KiloEx Introduces the "Unified 90% Liquidation Line" Mechanism, Providing the Industry's Latest Point of Liquidation for High-Leverage Trading

November 25th: In the recent event where the violent fluctuations of Bitcoin led to the liquidation of nearly 120,000 people, KiloEx noticed a counterintuitive phenomenon. Over 70% of the liquidations originated from long positions, and most were not due to the end of a trend but were liquidated because of a short-term "price spike." This exposed the core contradiction of high-leverage trading: the true source of risk is often not a wrong directional bet but a risk management model that does not leave sufficient buffer space for market noise. In this context, the decentralized derivatives trading platform KiloEx officially launched its core risk management mechanism, the "Unified 90% Liquidation Line." This mechanism broke industry conventions by not adjusting the liquidation point earlier as leverage increased. Instead, it provided a fixed 90% loss threshold for all positions. In comparison, under 100x leverage, KiloEx users had a -90% liquidation buffer, which was significantly higher than the -50% design of a certain mainstream platform, effectively doubling their resilience to volatility. This move was aimed at addressing the core pain point of high-leverage traders being liquidated prematurely due to sudden market fluctuations.
