Claude AI predicts BCH may run further after CME lists futures
Claude AI forecasts that Bitcoin Cash (BCH) could keep climbing after CME Group confirmed it will list BCH futures, pending regulatory approval. The futures launch is set for October 19 and will offer a standard contract of 250 BCH and a micro contract of 25 BCH, giving regulated funds and institutions a new way to gain exposure.

- About $6.67 M of BCH positions liquidated, three‑quarters from short sellers
The announcement sparked a sharp rally: BCH rose from the $260s to above $360, trading near $357.60, up 15.5% in 24 hours and about 35% since the week began. 24‑hour volume jumped to $1.7 billion, a 220.5% increase, representing roughly a quarter of its $7.18 billion market cap.
