Liberty Farmer on Nostr: I don't disagree, but one doesn't need to get liquidated unless they a)don't pay back ...
I don't disagree, but one doesn't need to get liquidated unless they a)don't pay back the cash, or b) doesn't add more bitcoin
And remember, they would only liquidated on an amount. If the price drops and an event is triggered, it's not like all the collateral is now gone, only those amounts needed for the LTv to come back in line.
It's a product for whales, large holders, and those who have plenty to re add margin. No reason to sell and pay the taxes for them for a new business, commercial property or home, a kids college costs with easy terms, and so forth.
It isn't for 99% of bitcoiners likely.
People also need to realize that while drops happen, the last short term huge price drop was March 2020, covid. It's not like they happen every few weeks.
People have been acting like there are 40-50% drops all the time.
