Wouldnt an inverse bitUSD just be a BTS?
Can we not achieve this exact functionality right now by buying BTS?

Oh wait, no one must buy a BTS under any circumstances, it must be avoided at all costs! :P

It will be worth 1 BTS but it will be backed by 300% ^ 2 BTS. or about 9 BTS  :)

So, 1 bitUSDINVINV would be worth the same as 1 bitUSD, but would be backed by the BTS equivalent of about 27 bitUSD?
In that case perhaps there would be a slight premium on it, making it worth a bit more than 1 bit USD (because it is backed more strongly)?

the value of 1 inverse-bitUSD should just be the value of 1 USD short (2x increase in USD value decreases short value in half, and visa-versa), so buying BTS now should give you this functionality.

Do not use this post as information for making any important decisions. The only agreements I ever make are informal and non-binding. Take the same precautions as when dealing with a compromised account, scammer, sockpuppet, etc.

Inverse to what? To one? How much is a one worth?

.. to be long on a short position? To be able to sell your short position to someone else? I am not into financial alot .. but just don't get the reasoning behind construct like those .. could you elaborate a little?

Are there any legitimate uses for an inverse USD pegged asset? Buying bitUSDINV would be like shorting bitUSD.
