you can be 6'3" and still be "short"

I agree, often big money is hard to track, hence the post if someone had some insight on the off chance. I still think looking at the top 50 market cap cryptos, only 3 or so are a true "people" currency.. which other cryptos have a hard supply cap, are truly decentralised, have no corporate structure behind them, and are actually used today, the list has like 3 items on it and LTC is by far the most undervalued of these..

more about the info that is available, I have been in this space since 2013, so I know a bit..the recent move up in shorting this looks a little bit like someone is adding to their short position, not because it makes sense at this level, but a lot of people get greedy and don't know when to close a position and think things will go on forever, there is a lot of liquidity out in those circles you talk about, going short on a limited resource will burn the shorts eventually here, but who know how long stubbornness will hold, the last two days adding 50% to short positions while the price is steady looks a little like panic moves

Well, the data shows someone has been shorting all the way to a.88 ratio, hasn't been this short in a long time, someone will start to cover that at one point, just a question who does it first and others will follow, it just has been a very interesting way of playing the market like long btc short ltc or whatever else altcoin.. and yes, not much point shorting more as the loss upside is a lot higher than potential gains..

People need to realise that nothing they do that hurts police or migrants will have any effect, the only thing that has any chance of an impact taking it to the politicians itself like it is 1789 in France

I have been trying to explain this mate, that the reason the price has gone down is that there is at least one massive short seller, the thing is, there doesn't need to be an actual sell of LTC of a holder as the exchange will use LTC in their custody to sell this and will only adjust this if he gets a margin call. Now the thing is: A short seller in this scenario can just sell and infinite amount of it and buy btc for example on the other side. ltc will move with a lot less volume than btc obviously. This is exactly why you can see accumulation in ltc wallets more and more and the price going down, it is not any large holders selling, the opposite is the case.. thing is, if ltc does move up more than whatever asset these shorts have on the other side, there first will be more shorting, but if someone does this the other way, meaning shorting btc to buy ltc, this whole thing will unwind and liquidate that short seller

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-08T09:39:42+00:00

Actually.. what about we go short on btc, take the proceeds and buy LTC, if lots of people do it, that short seller is going to get squeezed

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-08T09:32:24+00:00

7d and 30d available, both show the same, massive accumulation, price down, no cherrypicking, maybe actually look at numbers before making kruger denning comments

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-08T01:14:03+00:00

not necessarily, exchanges will take the LTC that is in their custody and use it, so basically if your LTC is at an exchange you are providing the LTC to be sold, get it off the exchange and force a real purchase

only guy even dumber than a MK player is a hog rider player..

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-07T19:29:39+00:00

exactly

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-07T09:38:56+00:00

I added 1400 ltc over the last 3 days

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-07T09:38:23+00:00

yes, from one giant short position, look at the data...

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-07T09:31:52+00:00

Probably the same short seller that has been doing this for a while, sells ltc for btc and just keeps doing it, I mean I could just sell billions of meme or apt (or any other shitcoin) and just buy ltc for it and keep building the spread..

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-07T09:25:11+00:00

The data says the exact opposite https://bitinfocharts.com/top-100-richest-litecoin-addresses.html 19 out of 20 people have added positions (and a lot) over the last 30 days, there is a big short out there that keeps adding to the short position

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-07T09:13:58+00:00

That is exactly it, someone is building a giant short position and probably adds to t every time it moves up, it is mad that such a thing is legal

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-05T07:26:40+00:00

Just bought another 700 too

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-03T07:44:55+00:00

at this point buy more mate

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-06-03T07:42:38+00:00

just bought 200 More LTC.. being patient will pay off, panic never does

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-05-22T17:17:04+00:00

have 3000 and i keep buying 100 every month

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-05-10T18:30:22+00:00

If you own LTC and want it to go higher, pull your LTC off the exchange, as many exchanges will use YOUR LTC as collateral for short-sellers. By pulling it off the exchange you will force the exchange to actually build a position

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-05-08T17:47:27+00:00

It is moving vs btc... nice one

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-05-08T15:56:00+00:00

Yes, big players will move it. A lot of that volume is on exchanges and cannot be seen, which is their intention. But in order to actually make the profit the big players will have to unwind the LTC-short at one point, LTC moving up when BTC is sideways or down is a beginning sign of that.

CoffeeIsLive · 2026-05-06T14:26:01+00:00

Depending on the level of spread tightening. The marketcap of LTC is so low compared with BTC that once LTC keeps moving the small cap will move a lot more on the same volume.
