If these leverage trading firms/exchanges let people borrow bitcoins on paper and just debit/credit the difference without actually buying the bitcoin? Instead of the leverage provider actually holding the bitcoin in reserve they just debit/credit the account with the difference at the close of trade? Any thoughts appreciated.
