Bitwise advisor clarifies rumors: Nasdaq has not removed IBIT options position limits.

Bitwise advisor Jeff Park clarified recent market rumors, stating that the claim that "Nasdaq has removed the IBIT options position limit, thus giving Wall Street unlimited leverage" is untrue. Park explained that "removing standard restrictions on crypto assets" does not equate to "no restrictions whatsoever," but rather corrects previous non-standard, discriminatory rules imposed on crypto assets. The relevant documents actually propose removing the 25,000-unit options position limit for FBTC, ARKB, HODL, and the Ethereum ETF, aligning it with the current 250,000-unit standard position limit for IBIT and BITB, to achieve fair competition at the rule level. He further pointed out that IBIT's application to increase the options position limit to 1 million units was indeed submitted last November, but has not yet been approved. Park also reminded investors to maintain the habit of independent research (DYOR), not to blindly trust unverified market interpretations, and to verify through the OCC database that the current IBIT options position limit remains at 250,000 units.
