U.K.-based exchange CoinFLEX plans on offering physically delivered bitcoin futures that can be leveraged up to 20 times, a move that will make them a major competitor to giants such as the New York Stock Exchange and Eris Exchange.<\/p>\n

Physically Delivered Bitcoin Futures to Hit Asian Markets as Soon as February 2019<\/h2>\n

A venture owned by a consortium of famed crypto investors and industry giants is about to launch one of the most closely watched products in the world of cryptocurrencies, Bloomberg Quint reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to the report, CoinFLEX<\/a>, a former unit of Coinfloor<\/a>, a U.K.-based bitcoin<\/a> exchange, will provide derivatives on some of the largest cryptocurrencies on the market to Asian retail investors. The derivates will become available at the beginning of February 2019.<\/p>\n

Founded in 2017 as CoinfloorEX, the company is a venture by Roger Ver, the CEO of Bitcoin.com, the founder of\u00a0Bitcoin Cash<\/a>, and Trading Technologies, a broker software manufacturer.<\/p>\n

Mark Lamb, the co-founder of Coinfloor, which will retain an equity stake in CoinFLEX, will take charge as the company's CEO and lead the company from its new HQ in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

The company will have unique leverage over the competition\u2014all of the futures issued on CoinFLEX will be physically delivered, Lamb said in an interview. This means that once a contract expires, its owner will receive the underlying cryptocurrency instead of cash, Yahoo! Finance explained<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\u201cCrypto derivatives could become an order of magnitude larger than spot markets and the main thing that\u2019s holding back that growth is the lack of physical delivery,\u201d Lamb told Bloomberg.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Digital Assets Still Have Plenty of Room to Grow<\/h2>\n

Lamb identified trust as one of the main obstacles the crypto market faces. With many investors saying that settling bitcoin futures in cash is an easily manipulated process and introducing a trustless system could increase the volume of the futures market 20 times.<\/p>\n

CoinFLEX plans on making a large bet on Tether<\/a> as part of its futures offering at the beginning of February. The exchange's contracts will trade against Tether, meaning that short bets made in bitcoin will receive Tether, and vice versa.<\/p>\n

Another contract to trade Tether against USDC will be introduced, Lamb revealed, saying that the company was “confident in using it” due to its volume and liquidity.<\/p>\n

Despite its parent company Coinfloor being vocal about introducing more regulation within the U.K., CoinFLEX has decided to go offshore:<\/p>\n

“Crypto is a global audience and being regulated by one country would restrict who we can deal with elsewhere,” Lamb said<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Just like its competitor BitMEX, CoinFLEX is registered in the Republic of Seychelles. The proliferation of Bitcoin-based financial products will make the cryptocurrency more accessible, stimulate interest in the coin, and ultimately, increase demand.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
