The Roundhill Ether Covered Call Strategy ETF, YETH, attracted new capital on January 30, 2026, with latest net inflows of $1,711,776. The move lifted its assets under management to $96,948,768, with the single-day flow equivalent to roughly 1.77% of total AUM—an unusually strong vote of confidence for a niche options-based crypto strategy.
The ETF’s structure, which seeks to generate income by writing calls on Ether while maintaining exposure to the underlying, appears to be drawing investors looking to monetize volatility and cushion downside in a choppy digital-asset market. The sizable intake, relative to AUM, suggests allocators are tilting toward yield-oriented crypto plays rather than pure price appreciation bets.
The related asset, ETH-USD, is currently trading at $2,428.98, having dropped about 30.63% over the past three months. Short-term momentum remains fragile, with a 1-day technical reading flashing Sell, underscoring the defensive appeal of covered-call overlays in the current environment.
