YBIT Dividend History

• By the record: 69 payments since June 6, 2024, of which 51 fell in the twelve months to October 4, 2026, totalling $14.68 per share, against $37.70 a year earlier, a move of 61% down — close to 70% of the ~$20.90 share price.
• Pays: weekly, after starting on the four-week YieldMax cycle.
• First paid: June 2024 — every payment since is charted below.
• What it is: a YieldMax fund that sells call spreads on the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), converting the stock's volatility into distributable premium. It does not simply hold the stock.
• Fee: 1.02% gross expense ratio (issuer fund page).
• The angle: bitcoin volatility harvested through option spreads on IBIT, a spot-bitcoin ETF — two layers from the coin itself.

The income is option premium, not the iShares Bitcoin Trust profits: YBIT caps its upside when IBIT rallies and keeps most of the downside when it falls. One point per check — bitcoin's option premium, converted to cash and dated.

YBIT pays weekly. Each point below is one distribution since the fund began paying in June 2024.

"Next expected" is estimated from YBIT'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.

Every YieldMax single-stock fund runs the same machine on a different engine: sell the iShares Bitcoin Trust's rallies for premium, keep its declines, pay the premium out. What varies is the engine's temperament — and IBIT's temperament is the whole story of this chart.
