to turn it into an income BITO would be a good strategy. Right now I have 1300 shares, it pays a dividend and allows me to sell covered calls. The huge dividend payout makes it ideal for writing OTM calls and not getting it called away. For easy math: say BTC is 80k and Bito is 18. If BTC went to 160k in a year Bito wouldn't double like BTC because it's paying you roughly 50% dividend. So instead of doubling like BTC bito goes to 27 and pays you out the remaining difference. Say you had 10k invested, you'd get 5k back in dividend the BITO would now be worth 15k and you'd have whatever premium you collected selling OTM calls every 30-90days.

Don’t just throw money at some sketchy coin you found online—that’s how you get rekt. Instead of dumping $5K into crypto all at once, ease in with $500 a month or week. That’s dollar-cost averaging (DCA)—it smooths out the volatility so you’re not sweating every dip. The market’s a rollercoaster right now; timing the bottom is a fantasy even whales can’t pull off. Look at the Fear & Greed Index—it’s been screaming fear lately, which can signal a good entry if you’re patient. If $5K is all you’ve got, don’t YOLO it—DCA keeps you sane. Start with a solid base: grab some BTC or ETH through a legit exchange like Coinbase or Binance, maybe dip into an ETF like BITO for less hassle. Stick to a plan, ignore the hype, and stack sats over time—slow and steady wins in this game.

This is technically true, of course. But don’t think that the 56 million millionaires can’t buy 1 Bitcoin each. They just can’t buy physical Bitcoin, they still can buy exposure to Bitcoin. CME offers futures on BRR, which is tied to the Bitcoin price. Those are cash-settled and one such future gives exposure to the equivalent of 5 Bitcoin, without buying or selling a single one. And there are further derivatives on these futures, like BITO. In The Big Short, they say the CDO market in the financial crisis was about 20x the market of their underlying. And that alone would not have brought the system to collapse, there were other factors contributing to that. And in contrast to Bitcoin, there were real-world circumstances (people defaulting on their mortgages) working as a catalyst for the collapse. Yes, this can’t be stretched indefinitely, but it is safe to assume that working with a figure of 500 million effective Bitcoin is a more reasonable assumption than the 21 million physical ones. Greed will exceed the limit eventually and that leverage will collapse, but it will take much longer than most people think…

Similar situation, made it but wanted to avoid selling satoshis. I've built up a stack of $BITO; a futures ETF. I plan to rebalance annually, depending on tax implications. Aiming for 80/20 BTC/BITO. Note it will underperform bitcoin due to drag roll and expenses but it provides monthly distributions during the bulls. Last year it paid over $14/share. I've never been good about keeping dry powder so this provides cash I can use to buy dips, reinvest into more BITO, or make discretionary purchases. I don't have to sell anything or time the market. Completely automated and emotionless.

VMFXX is a better yield for me and I don’t have to chase random online banks. BITO is and has been paying nearly a dollar a share per month and trades around $22-24 maybe. If you do the math on that it’s a great yield. Basically any money you save in a “savings account” at a bank is the bank’s money to have fun with. It’s why they don’t pay shit because they don’t care if you deposit it. The only banks that do care and are actively attracting new customers are usually offering a HYSA of some sort. Either way the bank is taking your capital. The $600 is fine you might need it for bills but it is not an investment sitting in a bank account

Dude I never said the price matched it....reread my comment. It pays a monthly dividend, which returns the value to it's holders. I hold a mutual fund (that basically only invests in BITO) and it pays a monthly dividend INSTEAD of fixing the premiums/discounts fluctuations that happen. They do this because traders use those swings. But holders want the assest value to reflect the price movement of the underlying asset. So instead they reciveve a dividend that's roughly proportional to the underlying asset. The price per share of BITO varies, but with the dividend, the asset grows proportional to Bitcoin. https://www.nasdaq.com/market-activity/etf/bito/dividend-history

Thanks Chat GPT, Except I believe the major reason it diverges is they pay a dividend. I've experience this with BTCFX (a mutual fund that used BITO). While the PRICE doesn't correlate, my PORTFOLIO has a pretty close correlation. That's because every month they pay me a dividend that equals close to the profits. As such, those dividends have a $0 cost basis, but it increases my shares. Thus, it's essentially equivalent. If you are swing trading, these fluctuations matter. But as a holder, it doesn't matter much.

BITO, or the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF, tracks Bitcoin by investing in Bitcoin futures contracts rather than holding Bitcoin directly. Here’s how it works: 1. Bitcoin Futures Contracts • BITO primarily holds Bitcoin futures contracts traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). • These are agreements to buy or sell Bitcoin at a future date for a predetermined price. • Futures contracts allow BITO to gain exposure to Bitcoin’s price movements without owning actual Bitcoin. 2. Price Correlation • The ETF aims to closely track the performance of the Bitcoin futures market, which often correlates with Bitcoin’s spot price. • However, due to factors like contango (when future prices are higher than spot prices) or backwardation (when they’re lower), the ETF may not perfectly match Bitcoin’s spot price. 3. Rolling Contracts • Futures contracts have expiration dates, so BITO must roll contracts—sell expiring contracts and buy new ones—periodically. • This process can create additional costs or slippage, potentially causing slight differences between BITO’s performance and Bitcoin’s spot price. 4. Cash Holdings and Collateral • BITO keeps a portion of its assets in cash or cash equivalents (e.g., Treasury bills) as collateral for the futures contracts. • This helps manage liquidity and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements. 5. Regulation and Transparency • BITO is regulated by the SEC and offers investors exposure to Bitcoin in a traditional brokerage account without needing to manage private keys or cryptocurrency wallets. While BITO provides a way to gain exposure to Bitcoin, its performance might slightly diverge from the actual price of Bitcoin due to the nature of futures-based strategies.

People asking "why" don't understand the landscape for this asset class. BTC is an institutional asset now. As fears of economic constriction rise, the capital available for risky assets dries up. We just heard from Wall St's biggest tech giants that they are struggling with their AI spend. While it's producing great revenue, the spend to upkeep their current growth rates is rising, while revenue plateaus. This means extra capital which overflows into PE investments dries up. Temporarily this dampens the current trajectory. This is exacerbated by potential tariffs under a Trump presidency, as many of the necessary spends are imports (Taiwan). I don't think it will stop a bull run, but forward looking assets projecting a steep glide path will get hit hard. Think BITX, MSTR, BITO, etc. All those products will take a beating. Expecting to go lower until spending fears are lessened. Most likely 60k before 80k, although I still see BTC trending up long term (forever). Position: 40k MSTR Puts expiring EOM @ 250 strike

How? Will there only ever be 300,000 comfortable retirees (for around 15 million circulating) If someone is truly retired, they could hold an ETF like BITO which has an over 140% annual total return trading BTC futures. If someone held $100,000 in BITO a year ago, with dividends, they'd have a portfolio worth $240,000 that pays out roughly 4-5% in dividends monthly. Same with MSTR futures that play off BTC like MSTY. I use those in addition to holding straight BTC

They fluctuated, but BITO did, and MSTY returned 59.91% yield. I just use the dividends to pay off margin and repeat. Don't care the price of the ETF as I intend to just keep stacking them with MSTR and BTC. Just Google their dividends return charts. They fluctuate with Bitcoin but I have always been in the money as I just hold and only pay margin with the returns. It just keeps growing. I also have ETFs in invested in China for long term dividen growth. My point being, I like using other people's money to increase my holdings while never selling mine. Sometimes I just dump the dividends right into BTC. Ok, 50/50 to be honest. Debt is good. Good debt.

$BITO is a real interesting one. It's a bitcoin futures ETF instead of spot bitcoin. As such, it already trades options, and so ce futures are already a leveraged product, when bitcoin is having a solid positive run, the excess profits either have to be given to regulators OR paid to shareholders in the form of dividends. They elected to do the latter and the per share dividend payout has actually become pretty wild as BTC has stayed strong. I am sure that will change once the longer term bear market sets in again (looking at late next year if the historical 4 year cycles revolving around the timing of halvings holds up). In bull markets, I'd be more tempted by the futures ETF than I am the spot ETFs for that reason. Near $1.50 per share PER MONTH for something that is hovering around $20/share at the moment is insane.

BITO pays Dividends, so you need to factor that in. If it's paid out 46% in dividends (based on price 3.5 years ago), then that's even with BTC.

If you don't want to own and manage BTC itself, there are ETF's that deal in BTC only. I bought $600 worth of BTC, a couple years ago, and it is worth $549.39 as of right now. I bought an ETF $BITO, and it pays a monthly dividend as well as the trade price going up and down. $BITO has been a better investment than buying BTC itself and holding on to it.

Genuine question? I’ll genuinely answer: This morning the volume was kinda dying. I didnt see people interested in these prices, even though they should be…. So at 9:30am est I bought $BITI Calls meaning I make money if BTC goes down. And it did and I made a buck without having to sell any bit of my stack… so yeah you can do many things. Long Puts / Short Calls on $BITO or Long Calls / Short Puts on $BITI

No not necessarily. Just like opening $BITO puts or better yet $BITI calls, whenever you believe itll go down.

You may have bought a fraudulent ETF I’ve held BITO for some time now and, while the principal is “down”, the total account is up as the dividends are in excess of the amount down in principal

From its [website](https://www.proshares.com/our-etfs/strategic/bito): > BITO invests in bitcoin futures and does not invest in bitcoin. There is no guarantee the fund will closely track bitcoin returns. This is a "bitcoin ETF" (in marketing speak), but isn't a "bitcoin ETF" in terms of tracking its performance.

No, because the dividends paid out by BITO are quite large, most of the difference is caused by the dividends. Not sure why it is designed like that, must be some technical reason as no one wants to have to constantly reinvest the dividends to keep up with their investment.

It's actually not that bad, BITO pays large dividends, not sure why or how that works, just the way that financial instrument is designed. If you simply reinvest the dividends I believe it's only a couple percent off, contango is not that bad on this one. If it was, it would be a simple trade to short the futures ETF and buy the spot ETF.

I'm a long way off from retirement age. 25+ years. If I didn't intend to pass-on my coins, I could retire today. I see what you mean after directly comparing IBIT to BITO. Clearly, it out-performs BITO. No argument there. Even if you factor the BITO capital returns, IBIT is still double-digit % ahead, like actual BTC. Each share of BITO has paid me over $7 year-to-date in a tax-free account, whereas IBIT holdings are paper gains until you rake profits. Timing the market hasn't worked for me in the past. I could manually sell the IBIT on a monthly basis, but that is not passive income. It is functionally the same as selling satoshis, as I understand it. And the shares would continue to diminish. I'd have to buy more, to sell again later. The BITO position is less than 4% of my portfolio. I am bitcoin and real-estate heavy. I'm not worried about the BITO position value as much as the hands-free nature of dollars being deposited into my account, without having to sell any shares. That 4% is producing nearly 1/2 of my living expenses. I'm not a big spender. Again, in principle you are correct. If growth is the focus, clearly, IBIT is superior over BITO, just like BTC is. But for someone with a stack of coins that just wants a few grand per month and doesn't want to sell anything, BITO fits the bill.

i’m with you, i believe theres some terrible misunderstanding on your part on how BITO works. if you want monthly DCA to dollar, regardless of price, you’ll want to go full spot ETF and manually sell a portion of your holdings. BITO’s monthly capital return is not fixed. one month it could be 1% and the next month 2%. i just want to point out obvious contradictory actions: 1. you want passive income but you’re using IRA. are you retired and drawing retirement amount? 2. you claim to DRIP the capital returns into BITO but thats exactly the same (in practice worse) as just holding IBIT. dont forget, holding IBIT directly pulls BTC supply out. holding BITO does not directly pull BTC supply out

I appreciate you typing that out. Sincerely. I don't disagree with your assessment that Bitcoin is a better bet. But I can't easily hold bitcoin in my IRA. And I'd rather hold my own coins than a spot ETF. IBIT does not pay dividends (or capital returns). BITO is providing passive income. I don't really care about the share price, so the trailing share price to BTC price doesn't matter. As long as the thing keeps putting more dollars in my account every month, I can chose to reinvest them or buy more bitcoin. My goal is to have passive income to cover my expenses. So far I'm pretty happy with the performance. And the bull has hardly begun. The alternative would be to sell satoshis, and I'm not doing that. That is for future generations. I

respectfully, DRIPing BITO doesnt do exactly what you think it does. its because each BITO share represents less BTC/share every month. BITO’s exposure to BTC is thru futures contract. they use swap contracts to swap the current futures contract to one with further expiration. the reason they give capital back in dividend is the difference in contracts swapped. you lose out in multiple ways - especially DRIPing: compared to IBIT, BITO has futures premium decay, swap inefficiencies, higher etf fees, and if you DRIP - more exchange spread/fees I think you should really consider restudying the shitty ETF called BITO.

r/BitcoinSee Comment

And I'm DRIPing the dividends and gaining more shares each month. I added 6% to my position last month, the month before, and the month before that. I'm pretty stoked about it. I hold considerably more BTC than BITO.

Bitcoin is volatile as you know. I'm not interested in timing the market. BITO captures premiums for me. Bitcoin can bounce range-bound between 50-70k and BITO will pay me for the upswings. Holding a spot ETF won't, unless I swing trade, which I don't want to mess with.

i believe you are mistaken. even in a roth account, it makes zero sense to hold BITO over any spot etf. these are not dividends, these are return of capital. theres a difference. it has the same effect of getting forced to sell a chunk of your shares each month.

Have you seen the dividend payouts on BITO. The only ETF that pays a monthly div. I received 2 dividends on BITO over last 2 months over 10%. And BITO also offers options. Up over 200% from options bought last week. Also up over 100% on MSTR. I leave my bag off line in cold wallet and trade BITO and MSTR. They are great if you know what your doing

I look at bitcoin as similar to gold. Safe heaven when the $hit hits the fan but way too manipulated by the big boys to really make consistent money on, by and uninformed investor like myself. Looking at the big picture I see the volatile nature of bitcoin and think it’s great opportunity to make money. I personally do not currently have hold any bitcoin but I have in the past and sold before any gains. I am not a patient person. I currently hold two bitcoin spot ETFs. BITO, a bitcoin futures dividend powerhouse and IBIT, boring old normal spot ETF. I figure I can capitalize on the volatility with great dividends (%89.21 dividend yield) of BITO and get the pure matching upswing of Bitcoin with IBIT. On top of that BITO has weekly options and those premiums are very sporadic but icing on the Bitcoin cake.
