  • BlackRock's Bitcoin Options on Nasdaq Surpass Offshore Deribit in Market Size
    April 25, 2026, 6:56 PM EDT. Investors are increasingly turning to BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) options on Nasdaq, with open interest hitting $27.61 billion, narrowly surpassing the offshore crypto platform Deribit's $26.9 billion.
