The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has approved Nasdaq’s plan to list Bitcoin index options, expanding crypto’s presence in traditional financial markets. The new products will let US traders bet on Bitcoin price movements through cash-settled options without directly owning the asset or using spot Bitcoin ETFs like BlackRock’s IBIT. Regulators had previously delayed approval over concerns including market manipulation and exchange oversight. The move matters because it deepens institutional access to Bitcoin-linked trading. Analysts now expect growing interest from hedge funds and professional investors.
