Title: Re: how do you short bitcoin? Post by: Crypto Capital on November 03, 2017, 02:21:58 PM If you feel that bitcoin is going to decrease at a faster rate than the amount of interest typically charged on a bitcoin loan you could borrow bitcoins (from this forum or elsewhere) and offer USDT as collateral, when you receive the bitcoins you could potentially sell them to buy USDT, after a month you can use that USDT to rebuy the bitcoin and give it back to the lender. If bitcoin decreases more than the interest amount you profit. USDT should be considered a very stable collateral so you may be able to get a lower interest amount. If you are expecting a dramatic downward shift in price your profits would likely easily offset the interest cost.
