Topic: What leverage do you use on bankroll investments? - page 2. (Read 515 times)
I like the idea of using leverage with low beta/high yield/high quality companies. People who have never seen a significant bear market seem to rely too much on extrapolating from the historical average as if the market will never lose half its value again. If you use Interactive trader absurdly low margin interest and buy crypto currencies, you'll be more resistant to downturns than if you were holding the whole market and you'll be paying the margin loan passively with dividends. If you want to use leverage, this seems like a much better way to do it in everything but a screaming bull market.
For me, I love high risk gambling site investments, usually gambling sites do not lose in the long run, this is because statistically gambling sites will always win because of house edge. If we compute this house edge, it may be small but if you look at it in a graph with aa long list of bets, it would result that the casinos will always win in the long run, since the value will not go near zero but actually go down for the gamblers.
I know atleast two casino have leverage feature in investment right now; bustadice and yolodice.
Yolodice have upto 10x leverage while bustadice have upto 50x leverage.
I haven't invested in any of them but I will invest some in yolodice first with 10x leverage. I don't like to leave my bitcoin in any online wallets or platforms that's why I will just deposit like 0.10BTC in yolo with 10x leverage which will be like 1BTC bankroll from my side.
It's better to take risk of losing 0.10BTC if anything goes wrong or site got hacked rather than losing all 1BTC.

In some casinos where you can invest your bitcoin into the bankroll and earn from it, you are able to also leverage your investment so that the amount of profits/losses you make are magnified without having to actually deposit more money into the investment pot.
