VettaFi Head of Sector and Industry Research Roxanna Islam appeared September 21 on Bloomberg TV to discuss the bitcoin rally despite an interest rate hike from the Federal Reserve and the stalling of the CLARITY Act, among other topics. Key Takeaways: Bitcoin surged to $85,222, brushing off a recent Fed rate hike and regulatory stalls.

ProShares Ultra Bitcoin ETF targets 2X daily Bitcoin performance but is highly path-dependent due to daily resets and volatility decay. BITU surged 53% in a month amid Bitcoin's rally yet remains down 27% YTD, illustrating how leverage amplifies both gains and losses. I rate BITU a Hold; I need Bitcoin to sustain its breakout above $85,000 with reduced volatility before considering a more constructive stance.

Bitcoin rose above $80,000 to hit a more than three-month high on Tuesday as a soft U.S. dollar, in the wake of the moves by ​Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent to calm the bond market, revived momentum in the ‌crypto sector.

July's top monthly pay (MoPay) dividend equities offer yields up to 17.62% and projected net gains averaging 35.48% by 2027. Seven of the ten highest-yield MoPay stocks also rank among top gainers by analyst targets, indicating a 70% alignment between yield and upside potential. Twenty-four of forty-seven MoPay equities show negative free cash flow margins, flagging dividend sustainability risks; 21 ‘IDEAL' equities meet stringent safety and yield criteria.

I rate ProShares Ultra Bitcoin ETF a Hold, given its leveraged structure and volatility decay. Based on Bitcoin's cycle, I don't think a good risk/reward case can be made to enter today. BITU consistently underperforms Bitcoin except during clear, sustained bull markets due to daily rebalancing mechanisms and high expense ratio. Entering BITU only makes sense when a strong Bitcoin bull trend is evident, such as after breaching previous ATHs or a prolonged period without new lows.

In the past two days, bitcoin's highest conviction holders have sold about $2.4 billion in bitcoin. Of the bitcoin sold in the past 30 days, 26% came from investors who bought it above $90,000.

ProShares Ultra Bitcoin ETF (NYSEARCA:BITU) gives traders 2x daily exposure to the Bloomberg Bitcoin Index through swaps, with a 0.98% expense ratio.

Monthly pay dividend equities offer high yields and potential gains, with the top ten broker-estimated MoPay stocks projected to net 27.10%–65.84% by 2027. BCP Investment Corp (BCIC), CION Investment Corp (CION), and Dynex Capital (DX) stand out for both yield and upside, with CION forecasted to deliver a 45.69% net gain. Thirty 'IDEAL' MoPay equities are highlighted for safer dividends, combining positive one-year returns, free-cash-flow yields above dividend yields, and dividends from $1K invested exceeding share price.

Bitcoin is sitting near $71,000 after a rough start to 2026, down roughly 19% year to date.

ProShares Ultra Bitcoin ETF ( NYSEARCA:BITU ) promises double the daily move of Bitcoin, and right now that means double the chaos.
