Bitunix, one of the world's fastest-growing cryptocurrency exchanges, announced today that it has become one of the first platforms in the industry to introduce the Isolated Margin feature into a Multi-Asset Margin mode. This upgrade enables contract traders to manage risk on a per-asset basis while still consolidating their available assets under a unified account framework.

This feature is now officially live on the Web platform, with support also available on the Bitunix App. Following the upgrade, traders can freely choose between Cross Margin and Isolated Margin on a single trading pair, a flexibility that was previously not available under the Multi-Asset Margin mode.

Steven Gu, Chief Strategy Officer of Bitunix, said, "The core of this upgrade is to give traders more control without adding complexity to the operation. The Multi-Asset Margin mode itself has already made asset management more centralized and convenient. Now, traders can independently decide on a per-asset basis how much risk they want to isolate."

Prior to this update, the Multi-Asset Margin mode only supported Cross Margin, where all positions in the account shared the same margin. If one position experienced a significant adverse movement, the risk could affect the available margin for other positions.

Post-update, traders can choose the Isolated Margin mode for supported trading pairs individually. In this mode, the funds used to support that position are fully isolated from the rest of the account — even if the trade experiences a loss, the loss is typically limited to the margin allocated to that position and does not affect other positions.

In simple terms: Cross Margin shares risk across the entire account, while Isolated Margin strictly contains risk within a single position. Now, Bitunix allows users to flexibly combine and apply these two modes within the same Multi-Asset account.

Key Highlights

Free Switching on a Per-Asset Basis: Traders can choose between Cross Margin and Isolated Margin for each supported trading pair based on their trading strategy.

Enhanced Risk Isolation: Isolated Margin can effectively control the impact of a single losing position on the entire account.

Greater Transparency: After order execution, traders can actively monitor and manage Isolated Margin usage at the position level in real time.

A Balance of Flexibility and Integration: Traders can use Isolated Margin mode on certain trading pairs while still managing other assets within the same multi-asset framework without any conflict.

It is important to note that traders can only switch between Cross Margin and Isolated Margin mode on a trading pair if there are no open positions or orders. Users of the old version of the Bitunix App may not see this feature immediately and are advised to update to the latest version as soon as possible. Additionally, certain Isolated Margin orders may trigger additional risk control checks (such as loan limits). In such cases, traders may need to reduce the order size, add more margin, or repay borrowing for the orders to be executed smoothly.

Continued Expansion of Trading and Payment Tools

This contract feature upgrade follows the recent series of product developments by Bitunix. Previously, Bitunix introduced the Bitunix Card auto-top-up feature, which automatically replenishes the user's card balance when needed to ensure the availability of payment funds at all times. The platform also launched a new feature called Super Alerts, allowing traders to monitor the market in real-time and receive notifications immediately when preset price conditions are met. These updates demonstrate Bitunix's commitment to creating simpler and more flexible trading and cryptocurrency payment tools.

To use the Isolated Margin feature, traders simply need to log in to their Bitunix account, go to the contract trading page, select supported trading pairs under the multi-asset margin mode, and freely switch between Cross Margin and Isolated Margin mode.
