Just got access to shorting on Robinhood.

Man, they made this as easy as going long.

Took a short on 5 shares of $COIN at $167.39 and bought to close at $167.29.

Just a small trade to see what it feels like but it was as simple as buying a stock low and selling it high."

Not in the S-1.
Not in earnings calls.
But in the group chats of ex-Coinbasers.

$COIN → $700.

You either heard it…
Or you weren’t there long enough.

The believers never flinch. The prophecy will be fulfilled. I have spoken."

Is this time different?

I think not. 

Here is where I'd buy shares. 

Soon, I think we'll send much higher. 

As Coinbase continues to produce well, the crypto market has bottomed, and analysts downgrade the stock at the bottom, the future will be much better.
