  • Nasdaq to Launch Cash-Settled Bitcoin Options, Enhancing Market Accessibility
    May 25, 2026, 2:28 AM EDT. Nasdaq has secured conditional approval from the U.S. SEC to list cash-settled, European-style bitcoin options under ticker QBTC, tracking the CME CF Bitcoin Real Time Index. These options, pending CFTC clearance, will trade on Nasdaq's platform alongside tech stocks, removing the need for separate futures accounts. Unlike CME's bitcoin options that track futures and require larger contracts (5 BTC), Nasdaq's contracts represent exactly 1 BTC with a smaller notional size, making them accessible to smaller institutions and retail traders. This launch aims to democratize crypto risk management and reduce operational complexity while supporting diversified hedging and volatility strategies.
