Trump Administration Popped 2017 Bitcoin Bubble, Ex-CFTC Chair Says

“One of the untold stories of the past few years is that the CFTC, the Treasury, the SEC and the [National Economic Council] director at the time, Gary Cohn, believed that the launch of bitcoin futures would have the impact of popping the bitcoin bubble. And it worked.”

Clarification for the reasoning behind creating this thread

I was being overly crass with this thread just to make a point which i think was missed by the vast majority. Many times i will make a short post and expect that others can extrapolate my meaning from that and I am wrong more times than not in that regard.

The goal of this thread was to point out those in the system that are coming to get bitcoin, and as i warned they did indeed do exactly that and succeeded fairly well. They now have a position where they skim the cream off the top of this market cap with their futures and options without even having to participate in actually using , buying or holding of coins. It has been admitted by a trump whistle-blower that they intentionally allowed CME/CBOE to pop btc's run-up as a bubble. And I am absolutely certain that the mt.Gox coins as well as others were all used in conjunction in order to achieve that goal.

You must know your enemy in order to defeat him and these are the enemies of freedom, those that would control you through currencies are no less dangerous than a mugger on the street and are far more insidious.

No, his face looks depressing enough as it is.

[Gogochen]

It was just a stupid man, maybe he was too old for his mind to keep up with the new age.

This guy is anything but stupid he is dead dangerous. CME Group is the largest futures exchange in the world.

[asexypotato]

These guys are scary, CME group can definitely become a threat for decentralization efforts

Do not judge a book by its cover. Similarly do not judge a person by its appearance but by the clout he/she wields.
Having said that the decentralised movement that is pioneered by bitcoin may be more powerful than a large centralised institution.

Well sure I'm not looking to date the guy but not sure why we're talking about physically harming someone just because of his what? Bitcoin future proposal? I never understood why they wanted to bet on the future of bitcoin rather than picking up some for themselves to HODL. Betting on the future of something that you don't seem to grasp today seems to be a real gamble.

[Latrix]

With his looks, he sure needs tons of attention. And he doesnt have much time left. let him be bros

[feelthebern98]

I definitely would, anyways we together are more powerful than these scum

[kolesozw]

I don't like bankers. AT ALL. BUT it's not right to call stupid a man like him.
He's more successful and proven than 99% people around, even if they are millionaires from crypto. He's managing a colossus institution.
At keep in mind - all those bankers and WST old dogs are always making public statements for a reason. He may FUDing Bitcoin to lower the price for his own future options, for example.

These guys are the people who make fud and buy cheap bitcoins when the price falls

This is the guy, who wants to open bitcoin to institutional investors. It means to grow btc price from 14k USD to 1.000.000 USD range.

"One of the senior figures at derivatives giant CME Group believes that bitcoin is on course to become its own tradable asset class.
In an interview with Reuters on Tuesday, the company's chairman emeritus Leo Melamed said bitcoin will likely come to trade in a similar way to how gold and stocks are exchanged today.
Notably, CME Group last week announced plans to launch a bitcoin futures contract, aiming to have the product available by the end of the year. The product is still contingent on approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the firm indicated at the time.
Melamed told Reuters that he expects institutional investors to take part in the futures contracts, rather than just speculators, and called the move a "very important step for bitcoin's history." The product will enable investors to bet on bitcoin, as well as short-sell the cryptocurrency."
Punch yourselves in your faces!

I don't think you realize they will be able to sell these futures without having to buy Bitcoin. They are selling nothing and using it to short and that is where the problem lies.

[zhangcaisbsbn55]

I won't do that because we should respect the old. I don't think we should be angry even they do something bad to us. Keep calm and do what we can to make ourselves better.

Sorry mate, but I still don't get it. What is so wrong about shortselling? Maybe you should stop using price graphs indicating price rise/dive on vertical scale and start using left-right indication for price action. It might free you from bull run addiction.

Added: this guy explained it a hell of alot better than me.

[Hueristic]

So, do you guys believe this Asshole now?

[pilosopotasyo]

No, his face looks depressing enough as it is.

yeah right  even a slap in the face is enough to further disfigured his face so there is no need to punch, one big punch could end everything for him. 

[LickKing]

Although I hate it, I won't move it. My banker thinks he is old. If I hit him, it may cause it to enter the intensive care unit, so this is ethical. We should not abuse violence. Please don't worry about the future of cryptocurrencies.

[coin-investor]

yeah, why not but I will be persecuted by doing that to an old man, let's just prove them that he is very wrong and all those who think they can beat Bitcoin just like that, they all thought it's easy to do that we have a big community and we can deal this idiot and fight him in his game.
