  According to BYDFi, short selling of digital currencies is allowed on their platform. However, it is important to note that BYDFi is just one of many digital currency exchanges, and regulations may vary on other platforms. It is always advisable to check the rules and regulations of the specific exchange you are using before engaging in short selling activities.
