Short
Middle English short, from Old English sceort, scort "of little length; not tall; of brief duration," probably from Proto-Germanic *skurta- (source also of Old Norse skorta "to be short of," skort "shortness;" Old High German scurz "short"), from PIE root *sker- (1) "to cut," on the notion of "something cut off."
Compare Sanskrit krdhuh "shortened, maimed, small;" Latin curtus "short," cordus "late-born," originally "stunted in growth;" Old Church Slavonic kratuku, Russian korotkij "short;" Lithuanian skursti "to be stunted," skardus "steep;" Old Irish cert "small," Middle Irish corr "stunted, dwarfish," all considered to be from the same root.
Of memories from mid-14c. The sense of "not up to a required standard or amount" is from late 14c.; that of "not far enough to reach the mark" is by 1540s, in archery; that of "having an insufficient quantity" is from 1690s. The meaning "rude, curt, abrupt" is attested from late 14c. The meaning "easily provoked" is from 1590s; perhaps the notion is of being "not long in tolerating."

Have thought about a "short" "asset" before.
CENT Buyback Announcement by @centtoken
You can send your excess CENT tokens to our community account, @hive-173575. In return, you will receive SHORT tokens equal to the value of the CENT tokens you send. To balance supply and demand, we have set a lower and upper limit. A user can send a minimum of 1,000 CENT and a maximum of 5,000 CENT. For example: Let's assume the amount sent is 1,000 CENT. At the current value, you will receive 7,975 SHORT tokens.
$SHORT (initial) supply: 100000
Getting 7,975 will be 7% of this and more than 7% of current supply.
Shall await $SHORT in some short amount of time.
$SHORT may be pooled with $CENT and $HIVE.
The SHORT Token was created a few days ago. You can think of the token as an insurance option to benefit from potential downward trends in the Hive price. We launched the token at 0.17 Hive. We kept the price quite low to allow all users to benefit and for fractional trading. We track the reference price using the Hive/USDT pair on Tradingview. You can create the chart by entering a code like BINANCE:USDTUSD/BINANCE:HIVEUSDT in the pair search section. We will use liquidity pools, market maker transactions, etc. to reduce the token's volatility.
One HIVE will get about six SHORT currently.
Adding about 1/2 HIVE and three SHORT to a liquidity pool.
Going "long" on $SHORT may be a fun experiment.
