Nasdaq has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch options trading for BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA). The move aims to make Ethereum investments more accessible to traditional financial markets. The SEC’s final decision is expected to be announced around April 9, 2025.
BlackRock plans to offer options trading for its new spot Ethereum ETF, called the iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA). The filing was filed with the SEC via the Nasdaq International Securities Exchange on August 6. The move offers investors the opportunity to invest in Ethereum, but does not require them to invest in ETH directly. It also notes that Coinbase will hold ETH assets and Bank of New York Mellon will manage cash assets.
The options market gives investors the right to buy or sell an asset at a set price before a certain date. These options are used to hedge against potential losses or to speculate on the future price of the asset. This flexibility allows investors to make more informed decisions about trading.
Nasdaq and BlackRock are known for their experience listing options on commodity ETFs. These two major institutions, which are in the market with reliable products such as iShares COMEX Gold Trust and iShares Silver Trust, are now taking an important step by offering options on spot cryptocurrency ETFs. This step aims to bring cryptocurrency investments to a wider audience of investors.
Bloomberg Intelligence ETF analyst James Seyffart noted that the SEC’s decision will also require approvals from the Options Clearing Corporation (OCC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). Seyffart said the SEC is expected to announce its final decision around April 9, 2025.
BlackRock is known as a leading issuer of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in the U.S. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) had $18.28 billion in net assets as of Aug. 5, making it the largest spot Bitcoin ETF, according to SoSo Value data. On the same date, iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) had $568.65 million in net assets, making it the third-largest spot Ethereum ETF in the U.S. market after Grayscale’s ETHE and Ethereum Trust.
This move by Nasdaq and BlackRock offers new opportunities for investors interested in cryptocurrency investments. Providing access to the cryptocurrency market with traditional financial instruments aims to provide investors with a safer and more familiar investment environment. This development could be a significant turning point for Ethereum and the cryptocurrency market in general.
FOR THE GIFT OF 10 DOLLARS PLEASE READ CAREFULLY.
My friends, you know that we, the publishers, are doing everything we can for you here. We are conveying to you the services and conveniences that our authorities have provided us. I have never withdrawn my support for both the cryptocurrency market and you, and on the contrary, I am trying to provide more support.
THIS 10 DOLLAR GIFT CAMPAIGN IS A CAMPAIGN MADE ESPECIALLY FOR ME BY BINACE. YOU CAN GET CONFIRMATION OF WHAT I HAVE SAID ABOUT THIS ISSUE BY CALLING LIVE HELP. IT IS A 10 DOLLAR CAMPAIGN MADE FOR YOU THROUGH ME.
Now I will explain how you will receive your gift. First of all, Binance users who have registered with someone's reference and actively use futures transactions will unfortunately not be able to benefit from this promotion.
So who can benefit?
Our friends who have not yet activated the futures section, when you activate your FUTURES transaction section, you will earn $10 when you open it by entering my 88623008 reference code.
I EXPLAIN IN DETAILED.
My brothers and sisters who have become Binance members without a reference, please listen carefully;
When you do what I say in order, you will receive 10 USDT.
Go to the Futures Section from your application,
On the next screen, open your account by entering the code 88623008 in the REFERENCE CODE section,
My brothers and sisters who want to complete this transaction and receive the 10 USDT reward until MAY 1 can do so. Afterwards, after activating your account, it is enough to open your first futures transaction.
The first 1,000 brothers who open a 200 USDT transaction by MAY 1 will receive a 10 USDT reward.
So let me give you a tactic like this; even if you open and close 20x with a $5 transaction, you will be entitled to the reward.
Even if you do this after May 1st, your reward will not come. So, do it until May 1st. In fact, I would say do it right now in 5 seconds.
It's very simple. Go to futures, enter my 88623008 referral code and activate the account. Then just open a transaction of 200 usdt in total and get the 10 usdt reward.
WHEN WILL THE REWARD COME?
Your $10 reward will come to the REWARDS section of your Binance application within 30 days from May 1. By activating it from there, you can use your $10 reward, or more than 300 lira, in futures transactions.
You can share this post with your friends in need so that they can also benefit from it.
IN THE MEANWHILE, MY BROTHERS, PLEASE DON'T MISS YOUR LIKES. EVERY SHARE IS FOR YOU. SO DON'T WITHHOLD YOUR SUPPORT. EVEN IF YOU HAVEN'T FOLLOWED US YET, DON'T FORGET TO FOLLOW US. WITH MY REGARDS.
