Strategy’s $STRC has fueled bitcoin’s 20% rally since February. Here’s why we think Strategy could issue up to $10-$15B more STRC.

Well, that escalated quickly.

This week's CIO Memo, in @Matt_Hougan's own words: "Why We Launched an Avalanche ETP."

We’re pleased to share the April 2026 monthly distribution rates for the following Bitwise Funds Trust ETFs. The Funds’ inception dates are: for ICOI, IMST, and IMRA, April 1, 2025; for IGME, June 9, 2025; for ICRC and IETH, October 1, 2025. Performance is shown as of April 22, 2026. The Distribution Rate shown is as of 4 p.m. ET on April 23, 2026. The Distribution Rate is the annual rate an investor would receive if the most recently declared distribution, which includes option income, remained the same going forward. The Distribution Rate is calculated by multiplying an ETF’s Distribution per Share by twelve (12), and dividing the resulting amount by the ETF’s most recent NAV. The Distribution Rate represents a single distribution from the ETF and does not represent its total return. The distribution may include a combination of ordinary dividends, capital gain, and return of investor capital, which may decrease a fund’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment. The Return of Capital percentage is the estimated portion of the distribution that represents an investor's original investment. Future distributions may differ significantly and are not guaranteed. The 30-day SEC yield reflects the dividends and interest earned during the previous month, after deducting the fund’s expenses. This is also referred to as the “standardized yield” and provides an annualized estimate of what an investor would earn in yield over a 12-month period, assuming the fund continues to earn at the same rate. Performance data quoted represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Short-term performance, in particular, is not a good indication of the fund's future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the original cost. Returns for periods of one year or less are not annualized. For the most recent month-end performance, please call 1-415-707-3663. For prospectus & risk disclosures, visit: for Bitwise COIN Option Income Strategy ETF, icoietf.com; for Bitwise CRCL Option Income Strategy ETF, icrcetf.com; for Bitwise Ethereum Option Income Strategy ETF, ieth.com; for Bitwise GME Option Income Strategy ETF, igmeetf.com; for Bitwise MARA Option Income Strategy ETF, imraetf.com; for Bitwise MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF, imstetf.com. The Funds do not invest directly in shares of COIN, CRCL, Ether ETPs, GME, MARA, or MSTR. Each Fund's strategy is subject to all the potential losses of the underlying security.
