Nasdaq has submitted a rule change application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) seeking to remove position limits for spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF options to align crypto ETF options with other commodity fund rules.
The proposal was filed on January 7 and took effect on Wednesday, removing the 25,000 contract limit for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF options held by institutions such as BlackRock, Fidelity, Bitwise, Grayscale, ARK/21Shares, and VanEck. The SEC waived the standard 30-day waiting period, allowing the rule to take effect immediately, but retained the authority to suspend it within 60 days.
Nasdaq stated that this move will give crypto ETF options the same treatment as other commodity options, eliminating unequal restrictions. The SEC has opened a comment period, and a final decision is expected to be made by the end of February.
