BREAKING: Bitcoin just got invited into the “you don’t get to complain about liquidity ever again” club.

Nasdaq just promoted IBIT into the same derivatives tier as AAPL, NVDA, MSFT, SPY, and QQQ.

Read that again. Bitcoin is now in the same liquidity bracket as the assets that literally define the global financial system.

They didn’t raise the options cap from 25,000 to 1,000,000 contracts because they “felt like it”.

They did it because the market has already decided Bitcoin is a mega-cap asset whether Washington likes it or not.

This is the moment every banker secretly feared.

This is where Bitcoin stops being “that weird decentralized experiment” and becomes a fully weaponized regulated asset class with institutional-grade derivatives depth.

You don’t scale options by 40× unless you know demand is about to detonate.

You don’t place Bitcoin beside Apple and Microsoft unless you accept the uncomfortable truth that Bitcoin isn’t going away.

You don’t let Wall Street run a million-contract derivatives book on Bitcoin unless you’re preparing for price discovery that will liquify every bear still clinging to 2018 talking points.
