Well when I say short I certainly wouldn't be attempting it on margin, simply selling alts into Bitcoin or fiat at a high, say ETH at $350, then buy back in now. Essentially shorting it that way. When the market bounces back you got a lot more.
Not true shorting, but it works.
I can see that. I advised converting as much STEEM to bitcoin (and preferrably to dollars) last week because I know the price of STEEM is going to drop a bit more than the price of bitcoin during this selloff. I'll check out your blog to view your call to sell Bitcoin at the recent highs. There were very few who were saying that. In fact, I thought I was the ONLY one here who was saying it. :-)
