What is the diference between arbing and hedging?

Mon Apr 23, 2018 12:39 pm

Hi, everyone. Yesterday i was reading smth about hedging, and I honestly fount tis very similar to arbing. I found this: "The concept is based on placing bets on different outcomes to create an outcome that returns a profit – winnings minus all stakes – regardless of whether the original bet wins or loses."
Also, it's not a common term, I mean iheard about it but not frecuently. tnx

arbing = making profit
hedging = protect assets

that's the main difference, you may use this also if you arbing in BTC or just sending to other exchange (with better price) but in the end hedgig always costs.

Everyone has a different perception about arbing, trading, hedging and especially middling.
