If you really want a good altcoin particularly for this situation look no further than GNS.
GNS is the utility token behind gTrade, the decentralized leverage platform of the Gains Network.
People use the platform primarily to leverage trade crypto (you can also trade forex)
The trading is synthetic as in there is no liquidity on the gTrade platform however you open a long on BTC say $1000 at 5x leverage.
Then the smart contract just queries the price and sends your collateral (in DAI) to the vault.
Once you close your trade 10% higher the smart contracts calculates that it owes you $1500 and give you 1500 DAI back (minus fees).
If the total sum of traders lose more than they gain the vault becomes fuller and fuller and at a certain point uses the excess DAI to buyback GNS and burn it.
If the total sum of traders gain more than they lose the vault diminishes and at a certain point GNS gets minted to sell for DAI and replenish the vault.
Overall, leverage traders lose more than they gain and this is especially true in current market conditions.
Over the past month 1.42% of all tokens in existence have been burnt, which gives it a 17% deflation rate (see
https://gainsnetwork.io/pools/)
This buyback pressure with funds of losing traders have kept the token afloat and at the time of writing GNS is up 37% YTD compared to -21% for BTC and -34% for ETH.
GNS is really very innovative. This architecture can allow for forex trading, stock trading, commodities trading just as easily as crypto trading and it can provide this on chain from your own wallet whilst you control the keys to all your funds.
No worries about withdrawals, no worries about KYC, scamwick proof since the exchange just queries an aggregate price of 7 exchanges, no borrowing fees get charged because you dont borrow anything, there is no price impact because there are no books, it's fully synthetic, quite low trading fees at just 0..06%... it's pretty crazy if you ask me.
Now it only has 100M Mcap but I can see this become one of the bigger projects of the future.
