Deep dives

Impact of ETF Options on Bitcoin Volatility

The approval of ETF options is expected to significantly impact Bitcoin's volatility. Unlike traditional crypto derivatives, ETF options offer a regulated structure that reduces counterparty risk, which is essential for institutional acceptance. With the removal of these risks, the anticipation is that Bitcoin will experience both upward and downward volatility, potentially leading to increased market participation. Additionally, these options can create a more dynamic risk profile and trading environment, which could amplify the price movements of Bitcoin.
