This is another example of you not understanding things. There are many reasons to short bitcoin that can be quite profitable. For example you can perform a cash and carry trade, effectively an arbitrage between futures and spot. CME futures is running an $800/month premium right now so a futures short and a spot long is free yield.
Again man, it seems like you don't really understand these things very well so instead of pontificating about something you have little to no knowledge of, you might be better off just being quiet about it and keeping your eyes open.
