Reports from the courtroom suggested that prosecutors would offer a deal for Eric Council Jr., who allegedly helped compromise the SEC’s X account.

Eric Council Jr., the individual charged over his involvement for allegedly hacking the United States Securities and Exchange Commission’s X account and posting a message suggesting that Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) had been approved, has pleaded not guilty in a DC courtroom.

In an Oct. 25 arraignment before Judge Amy Berman Jackson in the US District Court for the District of Columbia, Council Jr. entered a plea of not guilty for one charge of conspiracy to commit aggravated identity theft and access device fraud. He was allegedly part of a group that hacked the SEC’s X account in January, publishing a post that claimed the commission had officially approved spot Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs for the first time.

Traders believe that the approval of options for Bitcoin exchange-traded funds will inject much-needed liquidity into the markets.

On Oct. 18, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved applications from the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) to list the long-anticipated options for spot Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Options trading will now be available for the 11 approved ETF providers on the NYSE, including Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, ARK21Shares Bitcoin ETF, Invesco Galaxy Bitcoin ETF, Franklin Bitcoin ETF, VanEck Bitcoin Trust, WisdomTree's Bitcoin Fund, Grayscale's Bitcoin Trust, Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust, Bitwise Bitcoin ETF, BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF, and the Valkyrie Bitcoin Fund.

The Chicago Board Options Exchange also filed an application to list options for the spot Bitcoin ETF providers in August 2024 through a proposed rule change. This change in regulatory policy puts Bitcoin ETF options in the same category as other commodity-based ETFs, which the SEC approved to be listed on the CBOE, with the exception of Grayscale's Bitcoin Mini Trust.
