I don't think an inverse ETF would be very successful today, it's another way of betting down against Bitcoin but those who do that stand to lose. It could probably be useful in the future, I'm not saying it won't, but you won't see me buying ETFs, inverse or not, I prefer the real Bitcoin, although I suppose it will be successful among a certain type of public.

The thought of bitcoin being a bubble during the bull run and all-time high days won't be stopped. You just get used to it from those people who keep on saying that because you and them are not in the same situation. While you are enjoying the days because you own bitcoin, them are not. Those bears that are giving the thought to be scared in the market will always be there and most likely, they are easily affecting the newbies just like me before.

The thing is; if you are an investor a bubble is actually really good. Bitcoin has never crashed to zero, and therefore you could probably wager that if it did crash, and the bubble popped. You would be able to invest at that low price point, and if history repeats itself watch your investment appreciate in value over time.

I honestly, don't get when people use a bubble as a criticism since its usually from people who haven't invested, and a bubble is exactly what they want to be able to make money. Of course, bubbles exist, and I'm not going to tell you Bitcoin isn't going through a bubble right now. What I can tell you is bubbles are somewhat natural in anything that holds value, and bubbles are usually temporary.

Bitcoin at least over the years has proven that its only appreciated in value over time, and if you believe in the currency, and understand the fundamentals behind it, then you'd probably expect as it gets more rare, the value should rise up more.

Yep, for me it’s buy & HODL, buy & HODL. I have zero interest in anybody else holding my bitcoin for me or any kind of long/short trading via an institution. Break out of the fiat, government monopolisation of money, buy bitcoin.

These sort of ETFs are common. You can even find them for individual stocks such as Apple.

However, they usually are leveraged by 2x or 3x, so you can make more on trades (or lose more obviously).

They are usually aimed at day traders and are just more proof that Bitcoin is going mainstream, so are to be welcomed.

The concepts of financial markets cannot be applied to cryptocurrencies for several differences between them, the most prominent of which is the fact that the market operates 24 hours and in the whole world, which makes operations such as shorting do not succeed in the long term and different price values.
The market is still in the process of growth, so the term bubble may be accurate, but as long as the price does not go to zero and the price continues to rise, it will bubble th;t will not explode and lead to a great depression.

They would only stop when they're silently start investing on it. Their views will definitely change because they're already with us. We've seen popular figures in the financing sector did that in the past. After telling the people bitcoin in many negative ways, they've changed because they have announced that they are also investors. Reminders to the newbies, you don't sell whenever you have seen bad news in bitcoin, this is really different from the stocks market.
