About This Encyclopedia

This encyclopedia is a collaborative, community-driven resource dedicated to providing neutral, factual, and comprehensive information regarding crypto futures trading. Its purpose is to educate readers on the mechanisms, terminology, risks, and regulatory aspects associated with this financial derivative market.

Scope and Content

The scope of this encyclopedia covers topics including, but not limited to:

Definitions of key terms (e.g., margin, leverage, liquidation).
Explanations of various contract types (e.g., perpetual futures, quarterly futures).
Overviews of trading platforms and exchanges offering crypto futures.
Discussions of risk management strategies pertinent to derivatives trading.
Information on the underlying technology and market structure of crypto assets used in these contracts.

Articles aim to be accessible to beginners while providing sufficient depth for experienced traders. All content must be verifiable and grounded in established market practices or regulatory frameworks.

Editorial Policy

The core editorial policy of this encyclopedia is adherence to neutral point of view (NPOV).

Neutrality and Objectivity

Articles must present all significant viewpoints fairly and without bias. Content should not advocate for or against specific trading strategies, platforms, or regulatory approaches. Claims regarding potential profits or guaranteed returns are strictly prohibited. The focus must remain on describing how things work, rather than advising what one should do.

Verifiability

All factual claims, especially those related to market statistics, regulatory actions, or technical specifications, must be supported by reliable, published sources. Editors are expected to cite their sources appropriately using tags. Uncited or poorly sourced material may be flagged for review or removal.

Stability and Consensus

Disputes over content should be resolved through discussion on the associated talk pages. Edits should aim for consensus among contributing editors. Highly contentious topics may require a dedicated section outlining the different perspectives, each properly sourced.

Prohibited Content

The following types of content are explicitly forbidden:

Promotional material, advertising, or endorsements for specific exchanges, brokers, or trading software.
Personal opinions, original research, or unverifiable anecdotes.
Content that constitutes financial advice or solicitation.
Content that violates copyright laws.

Structure and Formatting

Articles should utilize standard MediaWiki formatting for clarity and consistency:

Headings should be created using double equals signs (== Section ==).
Internal links to other encyclopedia articles should use double square brackets (Link Target).
Emphasis should be indicated using triple apostrophes (e.g., term).
All external citations must be placed at the end of the article in a == References == section, formatted using the Template:Cite web template where applicable.

Community Guidelines

Editors are expected to interact respectfully on talk pages and in community forums. Good-faith editing is presumed. Vandalism, harassment, or persistent violation of the editorial policy will result in administrative action.
