CoinVoice has recently learned that according to Coindesk, according to two memoranda issued by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the New York Stock Exchange will be allowed to list and trade options on the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust (BTC) and Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB).

Cboe Global Markets has been approved to list and trade options on the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) and the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB). A few weeks ago, the SEC approved Nasdaq’s rule proposal to allow the listing and trading of options on BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT).

Many market participants believe that options trading on a Bitcoin ETF will increase institutional interest in cryptocurrencies and increase overall liquidity. [Original link]
