Confession: I had little interest in cryptocurrencies until companies started offering covered call strategy ETFs using Bitcoin. These funds provide me and my subscribers with an excellent opportunity to make money. However, even with the income from option selling, accumulating shares of these Bitcoin funds should happen over time and methodically. From its history, it […]
So far this year, the U.S. stock market has experienced a bear market, followed by a recovery. As I write this, the S&P 500 is right at breakeven for the year to date. It makes for an interesting time to see how the ETFs using covered call/option strategies to generate income have fared. Of the […]
The SEC approved spot bitcoin ETFs just over a year ago, in January 2024. Eleven new Bitcoin ETFs received approval at that time. Over the course of 2024, fund sponsors launched ETFs that make short options trades to generate income, with Bitcoin ETFs or futures as the underlying assets. Investors and traders have long used […]

But now, with the advent of covered call ETFs that use Bitcoin as the underlying asset, I have become a Bitcoin fan. A recent Wall Street Journal article discussed why the limited supply is fueling the Bitcoin […]
Bitcoin recently exploded from the $55,000-to-$65,000 trading range it had been in for months. As I write this, Bitcoin trades at $88,000, and it seems destined to crack the magical $100,000 level.

During the four market days from August 1 through August 6, Bitcoin experienced a massive price drop followed by a partial recovery. Leveraging a unique ETF, I have developed a strategy that capitalizes on the dips for long-term profits—a strategy that is sure to intrigue you. On August 1, Bitcoin closed at $65,337. On August […]
My investment focus has centered on income stocks and ETFs. Since Bitcoin doesn’t pay dividends, I hadn’t had much interest besides keeping up with the news. The explosion in the issuance of new options strategy ETFs provides new ways to invest in existing asset categories. Three covered call ETFs currently use Bitcoin as the portfolio […]
I am often asked about cryptocurrencies and if they are safe investments to add to a portfolio. For investors unfamiliar with the term, a cryptocurrency is basically a digital token, or coin, which trades on a distributed and decentralized ledger called the blockchain. The best-known and most popular cryptocurrency is Bitcoin. It debuted in 2010 […]
After running above $48,000 earlier this week thanks to key catalysts, Bitcoin (BTC) has turned positive for the year. One catalyst, as noted by CryptoPotato.com, is news that Do Kwon, the founder and CEO of Terraform Labs, intends to buy $10 billion worth of Bitcoin over time. A second catalyst is that as the overall […]
Bitcoin’s value was cut nearly in half over the last few weeks: from a high of $68,978, it dropped to a low of about $35,000. However, after catching major support, Bitcoin is showing strong signs of life, thanks in large part to President Biden’s executive order on cryptocurrencies and institutional buying. According to CNBC: “Biden’s […]
