On BTC the advertised 40× applies only below $150.00M of notional, where the cap steps down to 20×. Opens on BTC at $83,226.00; this shows what the tier table really allows at your notional, and what it costs in margin.

Every venue publishes a ladder like this and quotes only its top rung. The highlighted row is the tier $180M falls in. At $180M the most this contract will give you is 20×, not the 40× on the front of the page.

40× is not available at this size. $180.00M of notional falls in tier 2, which caps leverage at 20×. The order is filled at the cap or rejected, depending on the venue — either way the position is not the one you sized.

Why the advertised number is not always your number

Exchanges publish a single headline maximum — 40× on this contract — and then apply a margin tier table that steps the cap down as position size grows. Here the headline applies only below $150.00M. From there, both the permitted leverage and the maintenance margin change, and the liquidation price moves with them.
