This is news from last week but I didn't see it on SN let.

BlackRock's fund will earn income by selling call options on BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), the largest spot bitcoin ETF, with $49 billion in net assets. Each month, it will write options on a portion of its holdings and collect the premium as income.

The trade-off is upside, because selling the options caps how much the fund gains if bitcoin rallies. Its planned 0.65% fee undercuts the two largest covered-call bitcoin funds, which charge 0.95% and 0.99%.
