Odaily Planet Daily Report: The latest 13F filings submitted to the US SEC reveal how hedge funds and major banks adjusted their positions in the leading Bitcoin ETFs in the third quarter, highlighting a shift in strategies and the growing adoption of crypto-backed assets. According to Fintel data (as of September 30), nearly 700 institutional owners and shareholders collectively held 160.2 million shares of the BlackRock IBIT. The ETF has $42 billion in assets under management. Millennium Management remains the largest holder of IBIT, increasing its position by 12.6 million shares to a total of 23.5 million shares worth $848 million this quarter. The hedge fund also holds 11.6 million shares of Fidelity FBTC, worth $644 million. Capula, one of Europe's leading hedge funds, also increased its holdings, buying 1.1 million shares of IBIT ($308 million) and FBTC ($288 million). Meanwhile, some investors reduced or exited their positions. Point72 under Steve Cohen exited its IBIT and FBTC positions, while Jane Street sold 6.4 million shares of IBIT. However, Jane Street still holds large positions in other Bitcoin ETFs, including 4.4 million shares ($283 million) of the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB), 6.9 million shares ($133 million) of the ProShares Bitcoin ETF (BITO), and 2.5 million shares ($142 million) of FBTC. Tudor Investment Corporation, led by Paul Tudor Jones, holds over 4.4 million shares of IBIT, currently worth $230 million. Goldman Sachs increased its holdings by 5.77 million shares of IBIT, bringing its total position to 12.7 million shares worth $710 million, solidifying its position as the second-largest IBIT holder. Morgan Stanley reduced its holdings, selling 449,802 shares of IBIT, reducing the value of its Bitcoin ETF portfolio from $203 million last quarter to $183.39 million. In contrast, JPMorgan Chase only increased its holdings by 387 shares of IBIT ($13,982) and 213 shares of FBTC ($11,877), with a total position of nearly $65,000.

As of Q3, nearly 700 institutional owners and shareholders held a total of 160.2 million shares of BlackRock IBIT

Odaily Planet Daily Report: QCP Capital released a research report stating that Nasdaq will begin listing BlackRock's <IBIT> Bitcoin spot ETF options today. This marks a significant milestone in the Bitcoin derivatives market, as derivatives of traditional assets often grow to 10-20 times the market capitalization of the underlying market. This development is expected to attract a new wave of institutional investors who face restrictions in entering the domestic cryptocurrency options market (such as <Deribit>). These investors may focus on generating returns from their long-term spot ETF holdings, which could lead to further compression of implied volatility. This reflects the trend of institutions using MicroStrategy as a proxy for BTC exposure. The Q3 13F filings show that the number of institutional holders of MicroStrategy has surged from 667 to 738, with Vanguard increasing its stake by nearly 16 million shares, a staggering 1000% increase. Amidst all these positive factors, Goldman Sachs also plans to spin off its digital asset platform, further highlighting the growing integration of cryptocurrencies and traditional finance. We believe this can provide the necessary foundation for BTC to rise.

QCP Capital: BlackRock IBIT options go live today, providing a basis for BTC to rise

Odaily Planet Daily Report: <Deribit> CEO Luuk Strijers said that according to Dow Jones market data, <Bit>coin hit a record high of over $93,000 per coin on Wednesday, up 151% in the past year. According to <Deribit> data, for <Bit>coin options expiring on December 27, the open interest of call options is about 79,216, about twice that of put options (about 39,505). At the same time, for options expiring on December 27, the open interest of call options with a strike price of $100,000 is the highest, indicating that investors are betting that <Bit>coin may reach $100,000 by the end of the year, which means that <Bit>coin derivative traders are preparing for further upside in <BTC>.
