Metaplanet: The Bitcoin Flywheel Is Paused, Not Broken
Metaplanet offers leveraged exposure to Bitcoin via a Japan-based treasury strategy, currently trading at a discount to NAV after a sharp stock decline.

The recent acquisition of Siiibo Securities positions Metaplanet to tap Japan's yield-starved market with BTC-backed credit products, potentially lowering funding costs further.
CEPI: When The Strikes Don't Keep Up With The Rally
The REX Crypto Equity Premium Income ETF receives a Hold rating, with elevated caution due to portfolio composition and recent miner/semis rerating. CEPI's portfolio is roughly 50% BTC-correlated, with the rest in high-beta semis/AI hardware and fintech, resulting in high volatility and limited defensive ballast. Option overlays provide income but struggle to capture sharp miner upside or fully cushion drawdowns in volatile BTC regimes, especially after recent rallies.
Viewing BTCI Through The Lens Of BTC In 2018 And 2022
NEOS Bitcoin High Income ETF has a covered call strategy on Bitcoin, aiming to monetize volatility with a 26.72% annualized distribution rate. BTCI holds about 70% in T-Bills and 30% in Bitcoin exposure, actively managing synthetic covered calls to generate monthly income. I think BTCI becomes interesting in front of a hypothetical sideways and accumulation trend on BTC-USD.

Strategy: You Don't Need A Bitcoin Bull Case For This To Work (Rating Upgrade)
Strategy is a Strong Buy even if Bitcoin never becomes a reserve asset. A modest, hype-driven rebound to $100K is in itself compatible with a long-term BTC bearish scenario. MSTR trades at only a ~7% mNAV premium, which a BTC yield of ~13% YTD can erase in under a quarter, converting the trade into pure upside. Additionally, the company's preferred shares create a unique yield-on-Bitcoin product that builds a moat and, in my view, justifies a long-term mNAV premium. This is further potential upside.
