Nasdaq has filed with the SEC to increase the options contract limit for the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) from 25,000 to 250,000 contracts. This represents a small percentage of exercisable risk for the ETF and Nasdaq believes that the trading volume for IBIT will continue to grow. Analysts believe that the approval of options trading for spot Bitcoin ETFs is important for crypto adoption and market liquidity. IBIT's options debut saw impressive trading volume, but some believe that the crypto market still receives special treatment compared to traditional investment vehicles.
