It's based on the daily average from a basket of exchanges, they need to push the price down and keep it there, holding it down by $100 for days is going to work better than flash crashing it to $100 on one exchange.

Take gold standard. If you want to expand monetary base, you must mine gold. That takes energy, in the form of fuel and labor.

Take Bitcoin. If you want to expand monetary base, you must mine BTC. That takes energy (electricity).

Take fiat money. In order to make fiat money you must make some accounting entries. That takes no energy. Fiat money is made out of thin air.

Debt money is also made out of thin air. All fiat money is debt money. All debt money is fiat money by definition.

Thus -- Crypto is equivalent of returning to the gold standard.

And -- Switch to crypto means that people who make living out of making money out of thin air will be literally made redundant.

And -- no more debt slavery. No lending at interest is possible with crypto.

Bitcoin futures will allow two things

1. People can speculate on Bitcoin without actually needing to buy Bitcoin. This might slow Bitcoins price growth, but probably not by much.
2. Investors can hedge their Bitcoin position while they take advantage of
inefficiencies in the Bitcoin market. This is exclusively good for Bitcoin markets and will make it more mature. This is what the free market is exceptionally good at.

Technically its possible (such contract can be made), but the blockchain will make it obvious to everyone why God forbade usury.
