Understand the crypto market "shorting to kill short" with $RAVE



1. What is shorting to kill short
Everyone collectively shorts, but the price of the coin rises instead, forcing the short sellers to liquidate and buy back, directly pushing the price higher.
Those who shorted become the fuel for the rise.

2. The套路 of pump-and-dump coins like RAVE
High control of chips, the whales use a small amount of funds to control the price, lure retail investors to short, then slightly pump to harvest liquidations.
Whales don’t profit from pumping the price, but from exploding the short positions.

3. Why not play with whale-controlled coins
Bottom-fishing at low levels gets worn out, shorting at high levels gets wiped out—no matter how you operate, you're just giving away money.

4. Why are there recent clusters of shorting
ARIA’s profit from shorting creates the illusion that “the more it rises, the more you can short for profit,” which the whales are just taking advantage of.

5. Signals that whales want to turn the market down
Price slowly rising, open interest (OI) continuously decreasing + sudden spikes, OI collapsing
= After clearing the short positions, whales profit and then reverse to short, likely leading to a decline.

6. In conclusion
No one can predict a crash with 100% certainty, or the whales wouldn’t have any profit to make. $RAVE #Gate广场四月发帖挑战
