Shorting crypto means profiting when prices fall by opening derivative contracts without owning the coins. The most common method is using perpetual futures or margin shorts, which offer flexibility and leverage but carry higher risk than buying. Key risks include unlimited losses if prices rise and short squeezes that force costly buybacks. Traders should use stop-losses, modest leverage, and understand funding costs to manage these risks effectively.
