After, As the largest North American financial derivatives market CME Group announced its plans to launch Bitcoin futures, the British hedge fund Man Group became interested in this opportunity.The Man Group is the largest publicly traded hedge fund. He manages $ 103.5 billion in assets. If the company does dare to include tools for working with bitcoin in the list of its products, the cryptocurrency market may receive another powerful impetus..
IN a conversation with Reuters this Tuesday Man Group CEO Luke Ellis said: “Conceptually digital currencies seem to be a curious phenomenon. They are not an integral part of our today's investment universe, but they can become one. If CME launches bitcoin futures, they will become it ".
Apparently, the issue of launching bitcoin futures on the CME Group platform has already moved from the “if” to the “when” category. CEO CME Group Terry Duffy said that the new instrument could be released in mid-December. Probably, Man Group will not have time to develop its own product in such a short time, but their statement once again confirms that large investors are really interested in the cryptocurrency market..
