YBTC Total Return Analyzer

YBTC total return combines two components: the cumulative distributions you received from YBTC over the holding period, and the change in NAV (share price) across the same window. Many high-yield funds advertise distribution rates that look spectacular in isolation but mask meaningful NAV erosion. The analyzer above shows exactly how much of your YBTC return came from distributions versus price change — a 50% annualized distribution rate paired with a 30% NAV decline is a very different investment than a 50% distribution with flat NAV.

Roundhill Bitcoin Covered Call Strategy ETF (YBTC) is issued by Roundhill. Synthetic covered-call strategy on bitcoin — gets long bitcoin ETF exposure (typically via IBIT options) by buying a call + selling a put at the same strike, then writes weekly call options on top for income. Weekly distributions, expense ratio 0.96%, yield highly variable (recently running near 80% annualized when bitcoin is volatile). Caps bitcoin upside in exchange for weekly cash flow; a high-risk income vehicle whose distributions scale with realized volatility. That strategy directly shapes the gap between headline yield and real yield: option-premium and covered-call funds tend to show large gaps, while traditional dividend ETFs and index funds usually show small ones.
