I think BTC is about to implode, which means XRP is going down also. Don't ask me why, that's just what people do. I'm out for now. I'll be back in XRP at bitcoin $5000 or so. I wish there was a way to short BTCUSD.
Good luck to people still holding. I think you're gonna need it.
You and about half of the people out there are estimating this (the other half is estimating the other way). And no, no one is sitting on the fence, if they are, then they have half positions down and half positions up.
There are two ways to short BTC/USD... Buy USDT Tether with Bitcoin, or buy any alt with bitcoin. You're actually, in a sense, selling Bitcoin to get alts, in a sense. So there's the way to do it, and every day people are trying to do it. Good luck to everyone, you need it whatever your skill, whatever the market.
