ORDIUSD to go live for trading on May 30 at BitMEX
Bitcoin Margined ORDI is scheduled to go live from trading at BitMEX on May 30, 2023, at 4:00 UTC. It will sport a maximum leverage of 50x, making it one of the highest position sizes in the industry. The first trading pair to go live on the platform will be ORDIUSD.
XBT will be the margin currency. Meaning traders will post margin in the said currency. Also, their earnings and losses will be noted in XBT depending on how the rate changes for the pair. ORDIUSD has a fixed BTC multiplier of 0.00001. The cap on risk limit is 50 XBT.
Traders will be liable to pay the make fee and taker fee of 0.02% and 0.075%, respectively. Keeping XBT as the margin currency brings the benefit of claiming a premium discount on the swap trading of the pair.

Following this, they will be redirected to the home page, wherein they can explore the tools and then begin trading. The process has been explained in detail in our BitMEX review.
