Regarding the future of ZEC, the medium to long-term outlook is definitely bearish, but the current trend is indeed difficult to predict accurately. The safest approach is to wait until the price clearly moves higher before considering short positions.

Why such caution? Mainly because ZEC may face uncertainty due to a hard fork. Once the fork plan is implemented, users holding ZEC will receive airdrops of the new tokens, which typically triggers a significant upward rally. If you're not prepared at that time, you could get caught in a trap. Therefore, until the official team releases a clear plan, it's recommended to stay on the sidelines and avoid rushing into bottom fishing or full-margin long positions, to prevent being wiped out by sudden market movements.

But don't be overly conservative either. If you use low leverage, there's no need to worry about liquidation. You can strategically position yourself at relatively high levels in advance, participating in potential gains while avoiding major risks.
