How Many BITX Shares for $500 or $1,000 a Month?
At $0.30 a share a year, $500 a month takes about 20,000 BITX shares, about $257,600 at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $12.88. $1,000 a month takes about 40,000 shares, about $515,200. Before taxes, and only while the rate holds.
2x Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITX) pays $0.025 a share monthly, $0.30 a year, a 2.33% run-rate yield at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $12.88. It has made 30 distribution payments since 2024.
At today’s rate of $0.025 monthly and the last close of $12.88, this is what BITX pays before taxes, if the rate stays where it is:
| You hold | Each payment | Per month (avg) | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 share | $0.025 | $0.03 | $0.30 |
| 100 shares | $2.50 | $2.50 | $30.00 |
| $10,000 invested (776.4 shares) | $19.41 | $19.41 | $232.92 |
| 20,000 shares ($500/mo) | $500.00 | $500.00 | $6,000.00 |
| 40,000 shares ($1,000/mo) | $1,000.00 | $1,000.00 | $12,000.00 |
With DRIP on, every payment buys more shares instead of landing as cash. 100 BITX shares reinvest into 0.19 new shares each payment, about 2.4 new shares a year at today’s price and rate, and each new share collects the next payment too. To DRIP one whole new share every payment you need about 516 shares. Here the share count grows fast partly because the price keeps falling: more shares, each worth less, so count the shares and their value together.

The payout is not the return. In the 12 months to Nov 13, 2026, BITX paid $1.51 a share while its share price fell from $38.11 to $12.88. Total return was -$23.72 a share, so every dollar paid above was your own money coming back, and the share value fell $23.72 more on top.

BITX Dividend Yield Today vs Its 5-Year Range
- BITX yields 2.33% today, at the Nov 13, 2026 close of $12.88.
- Its own 2-year median is 13.38%, so today’s yield is below its usual level.
- No steady norm: its payout moves with option income, so it has no steady yield norm. So this reads today’s yield against its own 2-year history as it is.
Where today ranks in its own history is in the paid report
How it works. Each month-end over the last 2 years gives one yield: the regular payment then, times payments a year, over that day’s close. Specials are left out. 50 means today’s yield sits right at its usual level. A lower score means the yield is below its usual level, so the price is high against the payout. A higher score means the yield is above its usual level. On price alone a payer stays between 15 and 85. Steady raisers get a few points back. It reads the past, not the future.

Against the 10 dividend funds in Asset Management closest to BITX in fund size, BITX’s 2.33% run-rate yield is above the group’s middle yield of 1.25%.
