Launchpad & Co
Have you ever wondered what Launchpad is for?
Nothing comes for free.
Exchanges pursue their goals using their resource - you and me.
This seems like a good deal, but what is hidden behind this, how does the exchange monetize us?
Obvious
— Selling audience loyalty to the mining/listing project.
(The exchange receives tokens for free or a favorable purchase offer)
— Spot trading commissions.
— Speculation in the volume and value of the exchange token.
Non-obvious (this is more interesting, especially for an inexperienced user)
— Commissions for futures transactions.
(The exchange has a bunch of different fees, even if it's a utility token with 0% fee, you'll pay for the funding)
— Futures/margin liquidation.
(For example, traders long $BNB under the Launchpad and short upon completion.
Because of information garbage, they don’t pay attention to the news.
As a result, an impulsive transaction, loss of capital.
As an example, today's events in the Middle East. Everyone heard about the impending storm, but gave up. The market punished me harshly)
— The difference when buying and selling $BNB to participate in the event.
(Bought for 580, sold for 560 or hold it)
What non-obvious factors do you know?
