Payout risk check
YBTC's last 12 distributions were fairly stable (consistency score 86/100).
Its share price moved -58.1% over the past year.
A 44.0% yield paired with a falling share price is the classic sign of NAV erosion: part of each distribution may be a return of your own capital rather than income the fund earned, and the share price can keep grinding lower even while the headline yield looks attractive.

About Roundhill Bitcoin Covered Call Strategy ETF
The fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives through the use of a synthetic covered call strategy that provides current income on a monthly basis, while also providing exposure to the price return of one or more exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) that provide exposure to bitcoin and whose shares trade on a U.S.-regulated securities exchange. It will invest at least 80% of its net assets in options contracts that utilize a Bitcoin ETF as the reference asset. For purposes of compliance with this investment policy, derivative contracts will be valued at their notional value. The fund is non-diversified.
