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