Where is my ring of blades...
there are literary 100 other ways of making a lot more money, with a lot less risk, legally and without tax. whereas when you use bitcoin futures you may need to also manipulate the market which is illegal, you will have to pay a huge tax possibly twice and it has a lot of risk involved.

one of those other ways is to trade shitcoins in short term. for example ETH is one of those shitcoins that gets good pumps sometimes. so if you wanted profit you wait for ETH dump to end and for it to reach its real value which is below $100 and then invest in it and wait for them to pump it and make a ton of money.

Futures investment is highly risky. Especially on many platforms, the platform itself will hedge some big investments. If you invest a lot of bitcoin into future.
just use google and you will find them. shorting is always 10 times riskier than simply buying bitcoin because if you buy bitcoin and price goes down you can just hold until it recovers and you make your money back. but if you short but price goes up you lose money period.
not to mention that you are shorting bitcoin which many consider the dumbest move because it is a coin that is on the rise most of the times.

It's true, if you want to be safe then do not make short-term investments. but if you can take a high risk and want to get a quick profit, then choose a short-term investment.

keep in mind, there are some conditions if you want to make short-term investments
1. the market is in a rising trend
2. should be able to read charts
3. pray

because I have my own experience, in the first year yesterday the market was on the up trend. and I did not waste it. because the fun of short-term investment, I was lulled and forget that the market is already in the down trend. this is where my negligence, hopefully not happen to others

Yes but for every dump there will be one stable state where it will stable around one week then you can buy from that dip it’s strategy followed and got some good profit . For me this strategy never failed in trading luck also matters some times.

is it possible to make a lot of money shorting bitcoin?
of course it is, people have made money doing that.

can you do it too?
possibly not. there have been a lot of stories from people who have tried shorting bitcoin and lost a huge amount of money. just use google and you will find them. shorting is always 10 times riskier than simply buying bitcoin because if you buy bitcoin and price goes down you can just hold until it recovers and you make your money back. but if you short but price goes up you lose money period.

This is a good opportunity for us to get a lot of profit from the bitcoin price drop, we can make a purchase at a cheap price and try to get a big profit.

I once did, with a mature calculation I get profit from bitcoin that is down trend. this is quite risky and need a bit of a be lucky because one little bit can lose.
but I suggest, better looking long term than in the short term is too risky.

Its a double edge sword, do what you will, you may make tons of money and you may lose all your money, but if you think long term and keep holding crypto long term instead of fiat, it doesn't really matter right ?

no it does matter, because now you have the opportunity,

there are many reasons why bitcoin drops in price:

1. bitcoin futures are also now an opportunity to speculate with, we can here clearly say that the american banking cartel has successfully domesticated the wild bitcoin with their futures.
2. bitcoin has now a different situation not alone anymore but competing with more than 30.000 other cryptocurrencies for investors attention.

i think the opportunity is now that its more likely that bitcoin will continue to drop and stop influencing the market in that extent.

Can we make a ton of money buy going short on bitcoin now? Profiting from bitcoins downtrend? Someone tried that already

Yes of course especially if put a lot of money and do short term trading with bitcoin but don't expect higher profit if its just a small amount you'd better to play long term. Bitcoin is pumping and dumping and its a great time for an experienced trader to play with the market.

No, but you may help your broker make ton of money by shorting bitcoin. Did you know that trading is, like gambling, a game of negative expected value and the only ones that gain in a long run are the operators (brokers or casinos, depending if we talk of trading or of gambling)?

You would have done pretty well to short bitcoin a couple of months ago when it his its ATH.  Now?  I'm not sure if it's the best time to be shorting.  It's obvious bitcoin has fallen massively since then, and if it starts to soar again you're screwed if you have a short position.  Could you make money?  Absolutely, but I think it's far more risky to do so now than it was at the ATH.  Anyone with a brain could see that it got pumped up too fast and that the price wasn't sustainable.

There are ways to short it, though I have never done so.  I think some exchanges like Polo offer that.  All you really have to do is borrow some bitcoin and have the loan pegged to bitcoin and not fiat.  Not all that hard to do.

you can do that, even if it is easy if you want to study graph analysis on MACD in the short term you can get the advantage in internal time 4H


entire cryptographs are full of pump and dump media manipulations that the whales regularily do,

i consider bitcoin will continue losing market share ultimately becoming an annoying and irritating arrogant group of cryptocurrency freaks.

Futures is simply another easy way to lose your bitcoins. If you enjoy gambling then it's worth it for the buzz, otherwise i'd trade more safely on the exchanges - preferably on a dex with low fees

IMHO, bitcoin price today is a sort of in a dip stage, so buy it is not bad. If you will hold it for long term like until 6 months or depends if when will bitcoin will bullish again then ,will be a huge profit. But its not easy, especially when you are always monitoring your digital asset. You need more patience and remove greediness. Your most enemy is yourself.
