Word on the street is that Bitcoin ETF options could be here by Q4 2024.

有消息称，比特币 ETF 期权可能会在 2024 年第四季度推出。

This speculation started when Bloomberg Intelligence analyst James Seyfarrt said he was upbeat about the timeline for these options.

当彭博资讯分析师 James Seyfarrt 表示他对这些选择的时间表感到乐观时，这种猜测就开始了。

Then, Cboe re-filed its application to list options on spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) after pulling it earlier, as reported by industry watchers.

据行业观察人士报道，随后，芝加哥期权交易所 (Cboe) 在早些时候撤回比特币现货交易所交易基金 (ETF) 期权后，重新提交了上市申请。

Another analyst, Eric Balchunas, pointed out that the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) comments on Cboe’s application were positive, which he compared to the regulatory feedback before the approval of Bitcoin ETFs.

另一位分析师Eric Balchunas指出，美国证券交易委员会（SEC）对Cboe申请的评论是积极的，他将其与比特币ETF批准前的监管反馈进行了比较。

A Bitcoin ETF option would let investors trade Bitcoin with the flexibility of options and the regulatory comfort of traditional ETFs.

比特币 ETF 期权将使投资者能够利用期权的灵活性和传统 ETF 的监管舒适度来交易比特币。

Investors would have the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell shares of a BTC ETF at a set price before the option expires, adding another layer of strategic investing in the crypto space.

投资者有权利（但没有义务）在期权到期前以设定价格购买或出售 BTC ETF 的股票，这为加密货币领域增加了另一层战略投资。
