After the announcement last week by the CME to launch Bitcoin futures, a rush to the Coinbase platform has occurred and 100,000 new users have registered in 24 hours.

As a reminder, Coinbase is one of Bitcoin’s best-known trading platforms, with nearly 12 million users in 32 countries around the world.

These new users have probably been attracted by the vertiginous rise of Bitcoin in recent days.

With all these new users, the demand and price of Bitcoin should explode, especially since despite all these investors, less than 0.5% of the world’s population is invested in digital currencies.

Will Coinbase resist this flood of new traders?

As for Bitcoin, he will certainly have to evolve to cope with this exponential demand.
