Bitcoin Futures - can anyone explain? Anonymous Wed Mar 14 14:58:56 2018 No.8337287 [Reply] [Original]

Hi biz, I'm a brainlet. Does anyone here know anything about Bitcoin Futures? I've heard of some rumors that BTC is being heavily manipulated by Wallstreet on Bitcoin Futures. But I've also heard people saying that the volume of Bitcoin futures trading is too low to have that big of an impact.

Can anyone clear this up and explain to me why Futures is/is not affecting the price? And why in particular they are crashing the price right now?
