# Leverage in Bucket

Bucket supports two ways to build a leveraged long on supported assets:

* **One-click Leverage** (currently for **SUI/LST** and Wrapped **BTC**)
* **Manual looping** (all other supported collaterals)

Both paths keep you inside a single CDP with fixed-rate borrowing. Every action shows an **after-action simulation**.

***

### One-click Leverage

### Step-by-step

1. Select your **deposit asset**.
2. Select the **target asset**.
3. **Enter** the deposit amount.
4. **Set** your target leverage (> 1.1×).
5. **Review** the preview and costs, then **Confirm** to execute (one transaction).

### Preview & safety

* Before confirming, you’ll see a simulation of the position at **Detail.**
* A simple **target-leverage health bar** helps you gauge risk.

**Routing & slippage**

* Swaps are routed via the **Cetus aggregator**.
* You can set **slippage tolerance** (default **0.5%**).

### How it works

The Leverage feature allows users to amplify their exposure to supported assets by using USDB flash minting to automatically create a leveraged position in one click.Leverage Process (Example with SUI):A user starts with 100 USDC and targets approximately 3x SUI exposure.

1. User deposits 100 USDC
2. Flash-mints USDB worth 200 USDC
3. Swaps the user’s 100 USDC + flash-minted USDB for 300 USDC worth of SUI
4. Uses 300 USDC worth of SUI as collateral → borrows USDB worth 200 USDC
5. Uses the borrowed USDB to repay the flash-mint
6. Leveraged position is established

Final Position:

* Collateral: 300 USDC worth of SUI
* Debt: USDB worth 200 USDC + borrow fee
* Net SUI Exposure: \~3x the initial deposit

The same process works for other supported assets (e.g., BTC or SUI LST), with adjustments based on the asset type.

### Manual looping (all supported collaterals)

Use manual steps when one-click isn’t available:

1. **Deposit collateral**
2. **Borrow USDB**
3. **Swap USDB → more collateral**
4. **Deposit** the new collateral
5. **Repeat** until you reach your desired risk level

***

### De-leverage & raising CR

To reduce leverage or raise your CR:

* **Repay with collateral:** use the slider to choose how much collateral to sell for USDB, preview the **USDB repaid** and **new CR**, then confirm.
* **Repay with USDB:** repay from USDB in your wallet (you can swap into USDB first).
* After repayment, **CR rises** and your liquidation price **moves lower** (safer).
