Multi-venue leverage refers to the practice of using borrowed funds across several different trading platforms or exchanges. This strategy involves maintaining leveraged positions simultaneously on multiple venues, potentially increasing overall market exposure and the cumulative risk associated with borrowed capital. Traders might employ this to access varying liquidity pools, arbitrage opportunities, or specific derivatives products offered by different platforms. However, it also complicates risk management, as margin requirements and liquidation protocols can differ across venues, potentially leading to cascading liquidations during periods of high volatility.

Regulators are increasingly scrutinizing the overall leverage available in the crypto market and its potential systemic implications, particularly when capital is spread across various unregulated or loosely regulated venues.
