Questioning the obvious: liquidations

Liquidations, generally thought to be obvious and good for the market, actually cause major market inefficiencies. Aside from being a bad experience for traders, they incentivize market collusions via short squeezes - recently observed with GME/AMC and nickel markets a few years back, and a daily occurrence in crypto markets. Exponents provide payoff for any asset pairs, all free from immediate liquidations.

Before Exponents, the only method for market superiority was to play the social game on crypto Twitter. Exponents is converting this to a financial market, just like how Uber crushed Lyft with capital, but now onchain.
