- Never paid monthly. CRCO's first distribution was October 16, 2025, the week the whole Group 2 cohort moved to weekly, so its chart has no schedule step at all. All 55 payments are weekly.
- Its lowest to date: $0.1678 for the October 29, 2026 ex-date is the smallest of its 55 distributions, against a high of $2.4795 and a median of $0.3078.
- Return of capital: 94.29% of the October 28, 2026 distribution is estimated return of capital, with 5.71% income.
- The second highest rate here: a 70.13% distribution rate against a 3.29% SEC yield, behind only RBLY's 70.3%.
- Third largest on this list: $46.03M of net assets at a $12.44 NAV, on a 1.01% gross expense ratio — more assets than any of these funds except APLY and SNOY.
A record-low payment and a 94.29% return-of-capital estimate in the same week — 29 October 2026 — is the combination worth pausing on. It means the smallest check the fund has ever paid was still mostly funded out of capital rather than premium — a different situation from BABO, which hit a record low on the same date with a 0.00% return-of-capital estimate. The figures quoted in the text on this page are those the issuer published for the 29 October 2026 ex-date; the chart and the table above are drawn live from the payment record and show every distribution since, including any declared after that date.
Each point is a declared CRCO distribution from October 16, 2025. There is no monthly era here and therefore no step: the fifteen-fold spread you can see, from $0.1678 to $2.4795, is entirely Circle's own volatility reaching the option book.

| Recent Ex-Dividend Dates | Distribution / Share |

"Next expected" is estimated from CRCO's recent payment rhythm — the fund announces exact dates shortly before each payout, and the data feed can lag a few days. You must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout; the cash typically arrives days later. See every fund's upcoming date on the live dividend calendar.
A real total-return estimate, assuming every payout was reinvested — including what happened to the share price. Before taxes and fees. Past performance does not predict the future.
Most charts in this family have a step in autumn 2025 where monthly became weekly. CRCO's does not, because it launched into the weekly schedule. So the range from $0.1678 to $2.4795 across 55 payments — roughly fifteen-fold — is the underlying, not the calendar.
This week sits at the bottom of that range, and the issuer estimates 94.29% of it as return of capital. That is capital leaving a $12.44 NAV to fund the smallest distribution the fund has made. Both figures come off YieldMax's own page. The compare tool puts the payout line against the price.

When Is CRCO's Next Ex-Dividend Date?
CRCO pays weekly — declared each Wednesday, ex-dividend the Thursday — since the fund's first distribution; it has never paid monthly. The exact date of each payout is announced by the fund only shortly beforehand, so no site can promise the next date — but the live schedule box above shows the most recent ex-dividend date and the expected window for the next one, computed from CRCO's actual payment rhythm. Remember: you must own shares before the ex-dividend date to receive that payout.
Fifty-Five Weekly Payments and No Monthly Era
CRCO is one of five funds on this list that have only ever paid weekly, alongside GMEY, HIYY, INYY and YSPC. Its first distribution was October 16, 2025 and there have been 55, ranging $0.1678 to $2.4795 with a median of $0.3078. The absence of a schedule change makes this a cleaner chart to read than most in the family — every movement in it is the fund's actual week-to-week experience.
A Record Low, Mostly Funded From Capital
The $0.1678 declared for October 29, 2026 is the smallest payment CRCO has made, and YieldMax estimates 94.29% of it as return of capital against 5.71% income. Those two facts together are more informative than either alone: the option book produced very little in that week, and the fund still paid mostly out of its own assets to get to a figure that was a record low anyway.
What Would Change the Read
Whether the return-of-capital share falls back when Circle gets volatile again. A fund with a 70.13% distribution rate and $46.03M of net assets has room to keep doing this for a while, and the composition footnote is the only published place that shows it happening. Every new declaration arrives on this page with its own split.
