Why do so many people still play futures trading even when they know they might get liquidated?

Entering the crypto space, you'll find that futures trading is like a carefully designed game—people are aware of the risks but still keep rushing in. What's really going on here?

**The essence of temptation is actually simple: leverage.**

With 100 yuan as margin, you can control thousands of yuan in trading volume. When the market moves slightly, the numbers in your account start to jump—sometimes a small increase can double your principal. The thrill of getting rich quickly is hard for many to resist. Especially in the highly volatile crypto market, it seems like there are daily opportunities to make quick money.

Stocks, when they fall, you can only wait, but futures are different—going down also allows you to short and make money. As long as you pick the right direction, whether prices go up or down, there's a chance to profit. Coupled with the constant stream of news in crypto—today's good news might be tomorrow's bad news—once the gambler's mentality is triggered, many will think: "I can definitely predict this in advance!" The market often teaches them a harsh lesson.

**Even more deadly is the herd mentality.**

Honestly, it just feels like gambling under a different disguise. There are plenty of people who insist on playing with fire.

That's right, it's a combination of gambling instincts and greed. Making a profit once gets you excited, then you start fantasizing about being a trading genius, only to be ultimately taught a lesson by the market and left feeling like a loser.

Basically, it's just gambling addiction, nothing new.

Basically, it's gambling tendency; no one really thinks they'll get liquidated.

Really, who can resist the pleasure of doubling a stud? But the money in the account and the reality outside the account are often two different things.

At the end of the day, it's still human greed. Who can resist the thrill of going all-in... Watching others' screenshots of making money makes me itch inside, but in the end, I get cut deeply.
