Hi follow the 2 wire you shorted onto the board and look to see if they are attached to any components as sometimes ive found just a wire fuse wire soldered across 2 terminals which when blown is impossible to see as it just dissapears may be in your case or maybe not but worth looking at

Try briefly bridging B- to the outside of the USB socket to reset the overcurrent protection.

Cryptocurrency has taught me to love math and at the same time be baffled by it.

Cryptocurrency lesson 0: Altcoins and Bitcoin are not the same thing.
