all this news will add more trust to bitcoin, more trading, more demand and more price

personally hope to see any kind of crash soon even only back and stable at 10,000$

Hopefully that is what's going to happen, though I'm also inclined to think that the futures market could also be manipulated leading to a crash for bitcoin. It's good that they're slowly recognizing the potential of bitcoin being an asset which they can trade against, however it's also worth nothing that their money could also spell doom for bitcoin if they decided to manipulate it hard. Right now the price is at a crazy $16800 on all exchanges that I'm monitoring. Hopefully it crashes back down somewhere around sub-$10k for me to feel confident again.

In around 3 days the Chicago Board of Options Exchange (CBOE) will be opening its doors for the Bitcoin Futures Options and it is expected that the market would go crazy about it. People who wanted to have a slice of the Bitcoin profits now have an opportunity to invest on Bitcoin without owning any Bitcoin. This is essentially what futures is all about.

Following on the steps of CBOE, on the 18th of December the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) will finally have its Bitcoin Futures start trading on its floors. Then in 2018, Nasdaq exchange will offer their own futures contracts to the public. And this is just the start since there would be more exchanges from other parts of the world also interested to stake their share of the Bitcoin bandwagon. 

Now, one might be wondering: How is that going to effect Bitcoin? Will it crash? Will it explode to higher highs? In addition:
How can we use Bitcoin Futures Contracts to protect our Bitcoin investment as cheaply as possible?

Please share your ideas, opinions, predictions, projections and anything else related to this important subject.
