sadly this will have 0 influence at all,besides ukrainian markets as well as exchanges are agonising
with their major bank Privat bank being nationalised(yes the goverment just expropriated a bank and all of its assets and debts)
in order to prevent its collapse
with its financial sector and industry in disarray
Ukraine cannot be considered a safe haven for investments be it bitcoins or regular fiat ones
It will have an influence.
Just because the Ukraine has its share of problems doesn't negate the fact that a REGULATED exchange just listed futures products for the first time for Bitcoin.
I think it will provide a catalyst for the CME (World's largest futures exchange) to step up their efforts to provide products for Bitcoin, in addition to the real-time index they have launched.
You guys are really missing the boat sometimes, its painful to watch.
