$RIVER First of all, acknowledge the fact: many of you have incurred significant losses trying to short this asset. And it's not a matter of lacking skills — it's just the rules of the game.
​Take a look at the chart. $RIVER is rising not due to the "genius" of the project, but at the expense of your liquidity. Large players needed volumes, and they got them. The algorithm is simple:
​Artificial price increase.
​Forced closure of short positions.
​Maximum pressure and provocation of FOMO.
​Liquidation of the "early" bears.
​This is classic liquidity hunting. A scenario that has repeated hundreds of times across different coins in every cycle. Now $RIVER systematically absorbs orders, preparing the ground for the final surge.
​What to expect next?
Most likely, we are in for another powerful upward impulse — the very "stick" that should knock out the last skeptics and lure in late longers.
​Only after this climax will the real downward movement begin. It is then that the time for conscious selling will come, and the coin will be sent into a prolonged decline. That's how the market works: first, they take the liquidity, and then they lock in profits off the crowd.
