With Crypto Boost, you can increase your exposure to selected coins by up to nine times. This means you’re able to buy coins worth up to nine times your initial investment.
For example: if you choose to boost your order x4 and the coin price rises by 10%, your profit will amount to 40%.
Which coins support Crypto Boost?
Not all crypto-assets support the Boost option. To check which ones are available:
Open Treasury and go to the Crypto section of the catalogue.
Use the Boost option filter at the top of the screen.
This will show you the list of coins currently compatible with Crypto Boost.
What fees apply?
Trading fees for boosted positions work the same way as for regular crypto trades, but they are calculated on the full boosted amount, not just your own funds.
For example: if you invest EUR 100 with a x3 Boost, the fee will apply to the entire EUR 300 position.
You can read more about applicable fees here (link to What is the cost of trading in the Treasury?)
When do I need to close boosted positions?
Boosted positions are intraday only. You must close them before 00:00 CET by navigating to the coin screen and tapping Sell.
If you don’t close the position, it will be automatically closed at the prevailing market price. The resulting funds will be credited to your Uninvested Cash balance.
Additionally, positions will be auto-closed if your losses reach 60% or more of your own invested funds.
Example: You invest EUR 100 with a x4 Boost. If the coin price drops by ~15%, your funds decline by EUR 60 (60%), and the position will close automatically.
Please note that transaction fees (buy + sell) are added separately and may result in a total loss slightly above 60%.
What are the risks?
Trading crypto-assets is speculative and involves significant risk. Past performance is not an indication of future results. Crypto Boost amplifies both gains and losses — please consider this carefully before using the feature.
