According to Chosun Ilbo, some stablecoin-based investing has been described as shorting specific large-cap stocks with high leverage, drawing attention to its risks.

Leverage lets one hold a large position with little of one's own capital, magnifying gains—but if the direction is wrong, losses swell by the same multiple. Short-selling, in particular, can in theory produce unlimited losses.

Trades mediated by stablecoins can carry regulatory blind spots and abrupt liquidation risk. Behind high returns lies a structure that can wipe out principal in an instant.

Experts note that products combining high leverage and short-selling are very risky even for professionals. Investing without understanding the product structure and liquidation terms is especially dangerous.
