NYSE lifts options limits on 11 crypto ETFs, enabling immediate FLEX trading for institutional investors.

NYSE Arca and NYSE American have removed the 25,000-contract limit on options for 11 major Bitcoin and Ether ETFs, allowing greater trading flexibility and immediate access to customizable FLEX options. This change follows an SEC decision that waived the usual 30-day delay, enabling faster implementation. The updated rules align crypto ETF options with traditional equity options, supporting better liquidity, hedging, and risk management for institutional traders. This move signals growing mainstream acceptance of crypto assets within established market frameworks and may lead to further regulatory adjustments as demand increases.
