In a major boost to the crypto market, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved options trading on several spot Bitcoin ETFs listed on the NYSE and Cboe exchanges. This approval applies to ETFs such as Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), Bitwise Bitcoin ETF, Fidelity's Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, and ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF. By allowing options trading on these funds, the SEC aims to enhance liquidity and offer investors more hedging tools, especially appealing to institutional investors.
The decision is expected to improve market stability and reduce volatility by enabling more sophisticated trading strategies, such as hedging against market downturns. Additionally, strict position and exercise limits have been put in place to prevent potential manipulation and ensure market integrity.
