Bitcoin hedge funds face a liquidation trap when their collateral is split across markets

price

A CryptoSlate report warns that Bitcoin funds can face a liquidation trap when collateral is spread across trading venues: a sharp market move may trigger margin calls on one platform while assets held elsewhere cannot be transferred quickly enough. The resulting forced sales can deepen volatility and amplify losses, even if the fund’s overall holdings appear sufficient. The key implication is that cross-market liquidity and collateral coordination are critical risk factors for Bitcoin funds, not just their total reserves.
