What exactly do you mean by "margin trading means that there is a strong chance"?

Bitfinex has a pretty well proven model with various safeguards AFAIK.

Bitcoin is highly volatile. Margin trading with Bitcoin is like doing the same with a penny stock. There can be swing of as much as 20% to 30% in a matter of hours. In that case, not only the trader, but also the exchange will lose money.

Margin trading with BTC? That seems too risky for me. May be risky for the exchange as well. And further, margin trading means that there is a strong chance of the exchange collapsing.

I'm in Vietnam right now and since I was last here 10 years ago, the VND has depreciated to 21000 VND/USD from 15000 or so. While I'm in an area where no one probably would have heard of Bitcoin, I'm sure that if the ramifications of its usages were made known, Bitcoin would be VERY popular.

This socalled exchange is nothing but a bucket shop. They can run away anytime. The VN government is very strict in capital control.
