ABOUT THIS FUND
BITY does not directly invest in Bitcoin but employs a covered call strategy on the price return of Bitcoin. The actively managed fund-of-funds targets 24% annualized option premium. A portion of the funds long exposure comprises of holding ETP shares, as well as buying call options and selling put options with maturities of less than one year. The synthetic covered call strategy via standardized exchange-traded and FLEX options consists of synthetic long exposure, covered call writing, and US Treasurys and cash. The fund writes about 5-10% out-of-the-money call options with maturities of one week or less. The amount varies based on each underlying funds NAV to meet the 24% target. This, however, limits participation in potential gains if ETP shares increase in value. The fund indirectly invests in shares of ETPs through a wholly owned Cayman subsidiary. Note that there is no guarantee the fund will achieve its target option premium. Prior to May 16, 2025 the fund was Amplify Bitcoin 24% Premium Income ETF.
