BTC and Crypto market goes up almost every weekend , then during working days they short BTC with Futures and whole market tumbles down . BTC must go out of Futures, I hope that powerful people behind BTC and other Crypto projects realise this.
I do agree that the futures market has added a lot more volatility to the BTC market, as it made Bitcoin accessible to a lot of people who know virtually nothing about crypto-currency except the Bitcoin name, and of course as BTC goes, more or less goes the entire altcoin market, since a lot of them are traded against BTC.
