Spot traders own the actual asset, can transfer it instantly across wallets, and can stake or use it. Futures traders, however, hold contracts that are often used for hedging positions or taking advantage of short-term price changes. The spot market offers stability and tangible ownership for long-term investors. For active traders or institutional players, futures present opportunities for profits through strategies such as arbitrage, hedging, and high-frequency trading.

On the other hand, a trader in the futures market using 10x leverage could have amplified gains significantly during this run. But the risk of capital erosion also rises, even a temporary price dip can trigger margin calls. While leverage can boost profits, long-term conviction in spot markets tends to give stronger and more sustainable returns.
