MTYY's Strategy: Selling Volatility on an Already-Volatile Bitcoin Proxy

MTYY (NASDAQ:MTYY) sells put options on a 2x Long MSTR Daily ETF, targeting 200 percent of the options income tied to Strategy Inc (NASDAQ:MSTR), the bitcoin treasury company formerly known as MicroStrategy, whose stock already behaves as a leveraged proxy on bitcoin's price given its large corporate bitcoin holdings. Layering a 2x leveraged ETF and a put-selling overlay on top of a stock that is already effectively a leveraged bitcoin bet compounds volatility, which is precisely why MTYY's headline yield of 243.19 percent runs so high: elevated implied volatility means elevated options premium. Strikes range from 40 percent out-of-the-money to 10 percent in-the-money with one-week to one-month maturities, and the fund pays weekly.

Why MTYY Needed a 1-for-6 Reverse Split

MTYY launched September 23, 2025. Within roughly nine months, its per-share price had fallen far enough, driven by Strategy Inc's (NASDAQ:MSTR) bitcoin-linked swings and continuous weekly distributions eating into net asset value, that GraniteShares executed a 1-for-6 reverse split effective June 2026. The same round of corporate actions split COYY 1-for-6 and TSYY 1-for-8, underscoring that this is a structural feature of the strategy applied to volatile underlyings rather than a one-off event specific to MicroStrategy. Post-split, MTYY (NASDAQ:MTYY) trades around USD 17.55 with a 1.07 percent expense ratio and just USD 1.55 million in assets.

The Downside Math the Yield Doesn't Show

MTYY's (NASDAQ:MTYY) prospectus states plainly that its strategy caps potential gains if the underlying MSTR ETF rises, while the fund remains exposed to all potential losses if it declines, losses the income collected may not offset. Because Strategy Inc (NASDAQ:MSTR) trades with a volatility profile tied to bitcoin's own sharp swings, a period of falling bitcoin prices could push the fund's net asset value down meaningfully even as weekly distributions continue, a pattern the fund's own reverse split history already illustrates. Add non-diversified concentration in a single, famously volatile stock and options-market liquidity risk, and MTYY (NASDAQ:MTYY) reads as a tactical volatility-harvesting vehicle rather than anything resembling a diversified income allocation next to broader benchmarks like the S&P 500.

Where Things Stand

Does MTYY make sense after its own reverse split? The split itself did not change anything economically, it only reset the per-share price, but it is a visible marker of exactly the net asset value erosion risk embedded in the fund's put-selling strategy on Strategy Inc (NASDAQ:MSTR). MTYY (NASDAQ:MTYY) can still make sense for an investor who wants short-term, closely monitored exposure to MicroStrategy-linked volatility and understands the 243.19 percent yield as a byproduct of that volatility rather than a stable payout, but its tiny USD 1.55 million asset base and capped upside make it a niche tool, not a core holding.
