Why? Almost all of it is not theirs. And cucks have been begging for “institutional interest” - well, this is it.

Easier for whales to manipulate the market. I don't know of many OG or even some newer Nostrich bitcoiners who have been too enthusiastic about the ETF let alone an entity like BlackRock amassing a war chest. Mostly only degens who don't care about the tech and just want to profit have wanted this.

While I don’t disagree that derivatives usually make it easier to manipulate the spot pricing via papering, bitcoin remains perfectly auditable.

I can’t really see how this enables any more manipulation than another exchange coming online.

What mechanics are different here?
