Bitwise Sets Monthly Distributions for Option Income Strategy ETFs
Bitwise Asset Management has declared its latest round of monthly distributions for a suite of six option income ETFs, including funds focused on Coinbase, MicroStrategy, and Ethereum. The distributions, scheduled for payment on June 30, 2026, arrive as these strategies continue to navigate volatile digital asset markets.
Bitwise noted that the distribution rates—which reach as high as 22.36% for the ICRC fund—are based on current option income and are subject to fluctuation. The firm emphasized that these distributions often include a return of investor capital, which can impact a fund's net asset value and total trading price. With net expense ratios hovering near 0.98%, the funds utilize synthetic covered call strategies to generate yield, a method that limits upside participation during market rallies while leaving investors exposed to the underlying volatility of digital asset-linked equities.
