The Objective of YieldMax’s New Bitcoin ETF YBIT
The primary objective of the YieldMax Bitcoin Option Income Strategy ETF is to seek current income, with a secondary objective of exposure to the share price of one or more Underlying ETPs, with a cap on potential investment gains.
The Fund sells put option contracts on each Underlying ETP to fund the premium of purchased call option contracts, providing exposure to the downside price returns. This structure gives the Fund investment exposure equal to about 100% of the aggregate notional value of an Underlying ETP.
The Fund generates monthly income by selling call option contracts based on the share price of their corresponding Underlying ETP, purchasing U.S. Treasury securities as collateral for the options contracts it sells.
