Going max leverage is risky, and probably shouldn't be done with any single investment. Lots of people lost their shirts this week with GTAT, go online to read some of the sob stories.

Do you've got an example for those stories? Or some link to a forum or something? I'm effectively only active in Bitcoin forums, and not 'regular' investing ones

People getting 15 years of savings wiped out in one night, it's insanity.

That's awful. I can't imagine how many people lost tons on that.
