đž Where Does Your Money Go When You're Liquidated? đ”âđ« đ
Letâs break it down! đ
1ïžâŁ The Exchange (e.g., Binance) collects the liquidation fee, which is taken from your collateral. đ°
2ïžâŁ Other Traders (on the opposite side of your trade) may profit because your position is sold to cover their gains. đ
3ïžâŁ Insurance Fund: If thereâs extra collateral after covering losses and fees, it goes to the exchangeâs insurance fund to protect against extreme market events. đĄïž
đĄ In short, the exchange and the counterparties are the winners: Binance takes the fee, and opposing traders secure their profits! đ
