The train has now stopped to refuel and take some more passengers, before going CCMF again...
Will you be on that train? No? Think again!
train is pulling out of the station. Up we go. |

6370+. I was thinking: When it was 1k or so a year ago I couldn't have imagined it would go up by a factor of five.
Now I wonder if it will go up by another factor of 5 to 30k. Not unbelievable.

Patiently waiting for that spike upwards (at least a doubling within one week). Until then, it is still HODLing time.

For me I will still hold my funds before that spike to happen, because looking over to the bigger results, I am certain that having the patience that we had for bitcoin's value so far will benefit us most of the time now. I guess on week isn't just enough to wait, but surely we can experience the goodness of the price when it reached to the highest peak of price history. Although fluctuations may happen as previous months are in fear of price decrease, because of highest price that it can made investors to decide of selling their assets; but still they are positive enough to think of holding it. More will be investing now as demands rises from time to time and we are on the road to $7k. |

A few thoughts on the CME news. Even though the contract is cash-settled, market makers do need to hedge if they want to provide liquidity. Because as we hodlers know, who wants to take the other side of the trade, e.g. short? Jamie Dimon? If the market demand is one-sided, market makers got to step in and take other side of the trade, and for that they need to hedge, unless they want to get rekted/blown-up.
But as we all know, BTC has limited quantity and even smaller outstanding stock available on the exchanges. So if market makers want to delta hedge, they need to hold the underlying asset, i.e. BTC, since they can't fractional-reserve this and create BTC out of thin air. So when BTC spikes up (or plunges), this is going to make the volatility even worse as market maker scramble to buy/sell BTC. There might simply not be enough BTC around for people to hedge. Though this would be less of a problem when BTC has huge market cap in the trillions, i.e. fixed quantity but supporting larger notional value of outstanding contracts.
Also, BTC is traded 24/7/365 across the world and the biggest volume isn't even in the US. It is in JPY (Japan) now and was CNY (China) before. So the biggest influence on spot price (needed for cash settlement of contract) isn't in USD nor in the US. This is like having a BCH future on CME while the trades are all being done in KRW on Bithumb. Quite risky and manipulations are all oversea based. One would need to get funds oversea for settlement manipulation and often the exchanges won't even open account unless you have ARC (alien registration card) for Japan or South Korea.

My main thought is something that hasn't been mentioned very much - 'subject to regulation'. |
