The SEC approved Nasdaq's request to raise the position and exercise limits for IBIT options from 250,000 to 1,000,000 contracts — a fourfold increase. Institutional access continues to widen, ETF tools are expanding, and barriers to massive capital inflows are falling. The move is seen as a vote of confidence by regulators in Bitcoin ETF liquidity and market scale, though it could also amplify volatility. More options — more hedging tools, or more risk exposure?

#BitcoinETFOptionLimitQuadruples Wall Street's Institutional Barrier Unlocked
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved a rule change on April 30, 2026, increasing the position and exercise limits for Nasdaq ISE's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) options from 250,000 contracts to 1,000,000 contracts. This approval marks the culmination of a three-stage limit expansion in the Bitcoin ETF options market over the past two months. Beginning in March with the NYSE removing its 25,000-contract floor limit, the process culminated in a fourfold jump to 1 million contracts for IBI

A major shift is unfolding in the crypto market as Bitcoin ETF options move toward a 4x increase in trading limits—a signal of rapidly growing institutional demand.
The proposal aims to raise option position limits from 250,000 to 1,000,000 contracts, reflecting the massive surge in interest around Bitcoin ETFs, especially products like BlackRock’s IBIT.

Why this matters: • Institutional investors need larger limits to hedge and manage risk effectively
• Higher limits = deeper liquidity & tighter spreads

May Day cooling down again with more explosive news, keep shorting! Liang Xi said he just looked at on-chain data, and Bitcoin's recent rebound is just a trap to lure in buyers! I told everyone, don’t listen to big influencers shouting to push to 80k, I see short-term at most touching 79,500, then it will definitely crash to 73,000, yesterday some people got liquidated as a warning. Long-term firmly bearish to 60k! The Fed's rate cut expectations are just pie in the sky, inflation is still stuck, and dollar liquidity can be withdrawn at any time. And another big news: a major mining farm has s

Today’s Bitcoin Strategy (5.1)
The daily chart has bounced back after two consecutive days of pullback, with strong support around 76,000, indicating a bullish structure. The hourly moving averages are in a bullish alignment, and the short-term trend is upward.
Core Strategy
• Yesterday held steady above 76,000, today look for a pullback to confirm support.
• Buy the dip around 75,500 with a stop below 74,800.
• First target 76,800-77,000, a breakout targets 77,500+.
• If it falls below 75,000, the bullish outlook pauses, consider watching or lightly shorting. #WCTC交易王PK #美国寻求战略比特币储备 #比特币ETF期权

Bitcoin continues to consolidate around $76,000 today, with the market at a critical turning point. The current short-term direction is unclear: $80,000 is a strong resistance on the upside, while support is in the $75,000-$76,200 range. Institutional ETFs and whale accumulation on the funding side provide fundamental support, but retail investors are retreating, and spot buying is insufficient. On a macro level, geopolitical factors support the medium-term narrative, but high oil prices exacerbate inflation concerns, suppressing short-term market risk appetite. Market sentiment remains cautio

#比特币ETF Bitcoin returns to $90,000, which looks lively, but I have to pour some cold water—there are no substantial catalysts behind this rally; it's purely a technical rebound. $90,000 was once a resistance level, and now that it has bounced back to this point, short covering and momentum-driven buying naturally follow, which is an inertial market reaction, not a new story.
More notably, the details of ETF outflows exceeding $1 billion in December. What does this indicate? It suggests that institutions are quietly reducing their positions under the guise of tax-loss harvesting, while the ent

#比特币ETF Bitcoin ETF net outflows have approached $1 billion in the past two weeks, and this signal cannot be ignored. On-chain data is even more straightforward—the net inflow of funds into the crypto market has turned negative, dropping to -$4.5 billion, marking the first time in nearly two years.
The possibility of a short-term rebound indeed exists, but caution is needed to distinguish the driving forces behind the rebound. The current upward movement is most likely driven by leverage trading rather than spot demand support, and such rebounds have historically often led to chasing highs an

#比特币ETF Seeing this topic, I want to share an interesting phenomenon with everyone — traditional crypto treasury companies are facing crises, which in turn has driven the rise of innovative financial products like Bitcoin ETFs.
This essentially reflects an important market iteration: investors are shifting from "trust in a certain institution" to "trust in transparent mechanisms." The advantage of Bitcoin ETFs lies here — they offer a perfect integration point between on-chain assets and traditional finance, allowing ordinary people to participate in crypto assets through compliant methods wh
