Thus, according to representatives of the exchange, institutional clients with assets from $ 10 million to $ 1 billion have already expressed interest in such a derivative.
“I understand that $ 100,000 is a tidy sum. But many people remember Bitcoin for $ 1, then it reached $ 10, $ 100, and then $ 10,000. Therefore, no one even blinked when he heard about such a contract , ” said Paul Chow, head of the exchange.
Note that with a price of $ 100,000, Bitcoin’s market capitalization will reach $ 2 trillion.
Earlier, LedgerX received a license of the authorized derivatives market (DCM) from the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), which will allow it to launch the country's first bitcoin futures deliverable.
Nevertheless, some experts expressed the opinion that the obtained permissions would not allow the exchange to provide margin tools for such a product.
