Nasdaq getting the nod for btc index options is just another way for the suits to play casino with our bags without touching the actual coins. They call it market maturity but its just more levers for them to pull while we get wrecked on the slippage. European style means no early assignment but good luck betting against these desks when the index is just a proxy for the wash. And the coffee here tastes like burnt rubber. These cash settled contracts mean you never own the asset just the misery of the spread. They want to offshore the volatility into domestic pipelines so when the next systemic hiccup hits they can contain the blast radius inside their own walled garden. My shoes are falling apart. @bullbearbrawl
