Is there even a US based legit platform to short Bitcoin? If Coinbase was serious about having a true market they would allow you to short Bitcoin as well as buy.

Coinbase does have a market tho, it's called GDAX, you use your coinbase login and it has margin trading on it. Once I found out about GDAX I never used coinbase again for trading currencies because GDAX has no transaction fees if you are creating the transaction ie. setting up the buy/sell limits

CME is offering bitcoin futures starting next week.

Interestingly enough, S. Korea has declared bitcoin futures illegal today and S. Korea is the leading buyer of BTC.

Should be a good time.
