10/ ADL isnβt a scam. Itβs the brutal reality of leveraged markets: Exchanges never take the counterparty risk.

Watching the market move without you SUCKS. But you donβt have to sit on the sidelines anymore. With the right approach (and the right tools) you can move quicker and catch trades before they slip away. We found a way to make it happen. You can do it too β

9/ People say: βOn CEXs, ADL is a black box. On DEXs, itβs transparent.β True β on-chain, you can see everything. But when your profitable position is force-closed during a crash... does it really matter whether it happened on a CEX or a DEX?

8/ Hyperliquid also triggered ADL on October 11, for the first time in two years. It caused 35,000 liquidations among 20,000 users.

7/ Does Hyperliquid have ADL too? And why do they need a $3.5B insurance fund? Yes. Hyperliquid is not different here. Every derivatives venue has some version of ADL. Itβs the last line of defense to keep the system solvent.

6/ ADL is an extreme measure β only used when the insurance fund is depleted or in a liquidity crisis. Naturally, exchanges avoid it, because it always sparks outrage. But ADL is what keeps exchanges neutral, never in deficit β even in a full-blown market meltdown.

5/ The exchange wonβt fill that hole from its own pocket. Instead, it activates ADL. Profitable traders are sorted by priority (based on unrealized PnL and leverage). Then some of their positions are force-closed β their profit is used to cover the losses of those liquidated.

4/ When the market nukes, some traders canβt close in time. Liquidity disappears. Losing positions go negative β below their margin balance. Example: a trader owes $100K, but has only $50K in margin. That leaves a $50K hole.

3/ Exchanges donβt take counterparty risk. They arenβt one side of the trade, they only match longs and shorts, check margin, and liquidate when needed.

2/ At first glance β sounds like a scam. But in reality itβs the ADL (Auto-Deleveraging) mechanism at work.

1/ Big drama in the CIS community today. A trader on @Bybit had large short positions and a few longs. The shorts were supposed to even generate profit. But during the crash, Bybit closed the shorts at market, then liquidated the longs and even spot collateral. Result: β$1M.
