The Options Clearing Corporation (OCC) is gearing up for the launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs following a green light from the CFTC. In a recent announcement, the OCC indicated preparations for the clearance and settlement of these crypto investment vehicles. ETF analyst Eric Balchunas highlighted that it's now a question of "when, not if" US exchanges will list these options. Nasdaq's Alison Hennessy mentioned plans to list and trade spot BTC ETF options imminently, including BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust. This move could mark a major step in institutional crypto adoption. Stay tuned for updates.
