Betting on Bitcoin on Moon.com
Short version: Pick BTC, choose Up or Down, enter your wager and leverage (1x–1000x), optionally set Auto Profit / Auto Loss, and open the bet. Your loss is capped at the wager. There's also a cap on profit per bet: for Bitcoin, Moon's fee panel showed $200,000 when we checked.
Placing a Bitcoin bet
- Select BTC from the market list (it's usually the default).
- Choose a direction: Up if you expect the price to rise, Down if you expect it to fall.
- Enter your wager. This is the most you can lose on the bet. Quick buttons let you halve, double or go max. Don't use max.
- Set leverage with the slider. The bet panel shows your liquidation price (Moon also calls it the max loss price) as you move it.
- Open Risk Settings to add Auto Profit and/or Auto Loss in dollars.
- Place the bet. It appears under My Positions with live profit/loss, payout and multiplier.
What the numbers on screen mean
- Liquidation price: where your bet closes with the full wager lost. At 100x on BTC at $73,568, Moon showed $72,832.61, exactly 1% lower.
- Profit / Loss: already includes estimated fees and closing price, so it's close to what you'd get if you closed now.
- Multiplier: payout divided by wager. 0.00x means the wager is gone; 2.00x means you doubled it.
- Max profit: each market has a maximum profit per bet. Moon's fee panel showed $200,000 for BTC.

- Flip: closes your bet and opens one in the opposite direction at the current price. It's a new bet, so it pays the 1% opening fee again.
- Close All: exits every open bet at once.
- Moon Sentiment: shows whether more open bets are Up or Down on that market. It counts bets, not money, and the crowd isn't a signal you should follow blindly.
- Charts: timeframes from 1 second to 1 week. The 1s and 2s charts show just how noisy price is at high leverage.
Where the price comes from
Moon doesn't run an order book. It aggregates prices from institutional data providers (DXFeed, Pyth Network and SEDA Protocol) into one price, filters outliers, and says it never adjusts prices manually. Bets fill instantly at that price, with no partial fills.
Choosing leverage on BTC
Bitcoin often moves 2–3% in a day and around 0.5% in an hour. Leverage above roughly 65x leaves less room than an ordinary hour of noise. Our leverage guide has a table by holding time, and the calculator shows your exact liquidation price.
Bitcoin around the clock
Bitcoin trades 24/7 everywhere, so Moon's BTC price tracks the global market at all hours. Liquidity is thinner on weekends and overnight in the US, and sharp moves are more common then, which is worth remembering before you leave a high-leverage bet open while you sleep.
