It has been another whirlwind week in the world of cryptocurrencies.

Anticipation was in the air as the Chicago Mercantile Exchange became the second mainstream financial institutions to launch trading of Bitcoin Futures contracts on their exchange. Following in the footsteps of CBOE a week before, the Bitcoin market braced for the launch.

The market did not show the same growth as the week before, although the contracts differ on either exchange.

Dwarfing headlines and analysis of the market prices was the surprise announcement that users of America’s biggest cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase would be able to trade Bitcoin Cash.

The value of Bitcoin Cash soared, while Bitcoin endured a volatile slump down from a $20,000 high a couple of days ago. Amid the euphoria came complaints of insider trading - and Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said that an investigation would be launched.

Armstrong maintains that employees were prohibited from trading Bitcoin Cash in the weeks leading up to the launch of the trading platform. Nevertheless Coinbase has promised to undertake an investigation, threatening to dismiss any employees found to have breached the company’s directive.

Of course, that didn’t stop Twitter from exploding to life. Analysts, crypto experts, investors and enthusiasts began arguing over the allegations, which eventually led to ongoing conversations about the ‘real’ Bitcoin - Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash.
