  Yes, a margin call can indeed lead to the liquidation of your cryptocurrency assets. When you trade on margin, you are essentially borrowing funds to increase your trading position. If the value of your assets drops and your margin falls below a certain threshold, the exchange may issue a margin call. This means you need to either deposit more funds or close some of your positions to increase your margin. If you fail to meet the margin call, the exchange may liquidate your assets to cover the losses.
