When I first got into crypto, I thought Spot and Futures were just different ways to buy coins. I was wrong. They’re completely different — and choosing the wrong one can drain your wallet fast.
✅ What is Spot Trading?
You buy real coins at the real price.
You own the assets.
You only lose if the price drops — your account can’t go negative.
🎯 Example: Buy $100 worth of BTC → price goes up, you win. Price drops, you hold.
⚠️ What is Futures Trading?
You're trading contracts — not real coins.
Uses leverage (x5, x10, x20...)
Profits can be fast — but losses can be faster.
💥 I once lost $150 in 3 minutes because I FOMO’d a short position on BTC. Trust me: don’t rush into it.
💡 My personal advice:
New to crypto? Stick with Spot.
Learn before touching Futures.
If something can 10x your profits, it can also 0x your balance.
Are you trading Spot or Futures? Got burned before? 😅
