Theoretically. In reality - real traders couldn't even trade this thing as there was no infrastructure and too much system risk. If I fund my speculative 100-500k trading account who guarantees I'll be able to close out and cash out when I want? Noone could so far. Futures market will add much needed liquidity and confidence that one could actually trade this thing actively and with apropreate position sizes.
So far all BTC trading was done mostly by hobbyists who have no clue how markets function.
- verroq 9y agoMarket makers will have to trade on these unregulated exchanges so that they can hedge. So all you have done is unload the risk to the MMs. Which means if the MMs operate on the same risk model as you. Then you can expect the futures products to be highly illiquid.
