you didn't answer the question...I know it's a derivative that would trade on wall street....I asked what happens if buyers of btc calls, for example, actually want delivery of btc instead of settlement in fiat?
Your betting on Bitcoin Value not receiving BTC in return....
Wall Stret does NOT give a shit about your coin brother....
Have a good night im driving home now...
Tag you "IT" Vic...
Haha
Al-

How is your "sanitized" derivative (all positions are closed out before the settlement date with no actual trading) supposed to influence the bitcoin market?

You can't crash the real price without selling real bitcoins.  I guess you could hope to have a psychological effect on bitcoin holders, but I'm unconvinced.
