You Can’t Scale Leverage Without Structure
Leverage doesn’t break markets. Lack of structure does.
Crypto doesn’t have a leverage problem.
It has a clearing problem.
Everyone blames degens for “overleveraging.”
But what choice do they have?
- Most perp DEXs use isolated margin
- Risk is calculated leg-by-leg
- Offsets are ignored
- Liquidation logic is opaque
- Funding bleeds P&L daily
So yes — 20x feels reckless.
Because the system is rigged against scaling it.
You’re not punished for being aggressive.
You’re punished for using dumb infrastructure.
What Happens When You Add Size Without Structure?
- Liquidation zones widen
- Collateral gets fragmented
- Portfolio margin disappears
- Liquidity thins
- Execution warps
Protocols panic — and turn on the users:
- Trigger random margin calls
- Spike funding
- Kill order depth
- Blame “volatility”
It’s not volatility.
It’s bad plumbing.
Structure Is the Only Way to Scale Risk
You want leverage? You need:
✅ Real-time margin recalculation
✅ Portfolio-level offsets
✅ Unified clearing logic
✅ Transparent risk surface
✅ Smart liquidation triggers
Jetstream clears all of that — by default.
- Size a 5-leg book? Margin drops
- Hedge exposure? Risk adjusts
- Roll a position? Execution stays transparent
You get punished for poor strategy — not for playing big.
Jetstream Doesn’t Cap Your Ambition — It Clears It
We built Jetstream to scale with the trader:
- Structure gets rewarded
- Capital gets used efficiently
- Collateral works harder
- Liquidation isn’t random
- Leverage becomes a tool, not a trap
Because trading isn’t about guessing.
It’s about building size with discipline.
Want leverage that’s structured — not sabotaged?
