  If you really want to - Borrow $x bit coins - sell $x bit coins - wait for price to drop - buy back $x bit coins - return $x bit coins to lender. Now the speculators are in........

  Good luck. I hope it goes better for you than the people planning to do it 3 weeks ago. Or 3 months ago. Or a year ago.

    Sell high, buy low.

      That strategy works unless this is the lowest it will ever be.
    • drivebyacct2 14y ago
      Right. Like it was higher 3 weeks ago. Or 3 months ago, or a year ago?

  Thinking the same thing. It'll be interesting to see somebody going out sorosing the BTC "economy".

  There are derivative markets where you could purchase an option to sell bitcoin at a set price in the future. If the price falls below your target by then, buy up cheaper Bitcoins and sell them at profit.
