I get that someone that mines BCH might want to short it to hedge their position against losses from the price going down.

I'm just not sure how someone that takes a spot short position on BCH would realistically mine BCH to cover their short.

Only 450 / \~0.002% of supply is mined every day, in what scenario would less than that be available close to spot price at the expiration date?

BCH would have to be exceptionally illiquid for someone to buy mining machines or rent minign hash to get their hands on BCH to cover a short.

Am I misunderstanding?
