Will hedge funds short or long Bitcoin immidiately after CME starts BTC futures?

[alex_aaa]

Currently there are not many ways to short Bitcoin. Once CME starts derivatives (in December 2017), it will be very easy for hedge funds to play bearish on Bitcoin. What do you think?

And that would mark the most exciting part of trading bitcoin: uncertainty on what direction the market goes.

Old hands would be overall bullish to further increase their profits, and the fact that these guys account for a significant volume in the market is scary. On the other hand, hedge funds would be, well, bearish to keep the profits at bay but their control is not that heavy compared to these old traders. It would be a magnificent mix of reactions in the market making it harder to manipulate, thus creating a stronger (and hopefully), non-volatile markrt that merchants can now rely on.

they said they will list it in Q4 2017,
which mean it should be November or December,right ? also we still have a possibility to not get listed in there.
(who knows what will happen in the future,right ?)
if they're listing it i believe we should see a huge green that will happen,at least it will last for a month.
because in there people will start to buy it and understand how it works,
people will not dump it directly because if they do that CME name's will be ruined.
and the most basic thing is whenever we're hitting something,we're always see a huge boost with the price.
everything can be happen with it,as an old supporter i always hope it will bring a benefit for bitcoin in the future not only for a short run
