This change aims to introduce pricing incentives for trading options on digital asset Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) listed on NYSE Arca Equities, such as the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF and others. The proposal includes offering additional discounts or credits per contract to encourage such trading, effective December 17, 2024. The Exchange believes that these changes will increase liquidity and benefit all market participants without imposing unnecessary competition burdens.

The Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board (FRTIB) is proposing a change to the rules about how loans from the Thrift Savings Plan are managed. Currently, any interest that has already been collected on a loan must be paid off before payments can be made toward the principal and current interest. The new rule suggests that the interest be added to the principal when recalculating the loan, making the process more in line with the practices used for similar private-sector plans. This change will not significantly impact small entities or require additional reporting.

The Securities and Exchange Commission has published a notice regarding a proposed rule change submitted by NYSE Arca, Inc.

The SEC invites public comments on this proposal, encouraging interested individuals to submit their opinions by February 16, 2021.
