    Here’s a tip:

    Before confirming your order, make sure you understand the following two terms:

    • Total Available is the available balance plus the available amount to borrow.
    • Amount To Borrow = min(Order quantity, Available Balance) - Available Balance (excluding borrow limit)

     

    Notes: 

    — All repayments will be made in the type of coin you borrowed.

    — When LTV ≥ 95%, the liquidation will be triggered and a 2% liquidation fee will be charged.
