The U.S. SEC has approved trading of binary options linked to corporate performance metrics such as Coinbase's trading volume, MARA's Bitcoin production, and Robinhood's financial data. These options pay fixed amounts based on whether companies meet specified performance targets and settle in cash at expiration. The contracts will be regulated under existing securities exchange rules, ensuring investor protections and margin requirements. This approval applies only to these specific standardized options and does not affect the CFTC's authority over similar products structured differently.
The SEC's approval of binary options tied to Coinbase volume and Bitcoin mining output provides context for market participants.
