Cboe Canada Welcomes Listing of Hamilton Enhanced Bitcoin DayMAX(TM) ETF (BDAY)

Hamilton ETFs expands DayMAX suite with Canada's first Bitcoin 0DTE options ETF, targeting yield-seeking crypto investors.

Executive Summary
  • Hamilton Capital Partners Inc. (Hamilton ETFs) announced the launch of the Hamilton Enhanced Bitcoin DayMAX™ ETF (ticker: BDAY).
  • The fund is scheduled to begin trading on Cboe Canada on June 25, 2026.
  • The ETF combines direct Bitcoin exposure with an actively managed 0DTE (zero days to expiration) options strategy and 25% leverage to generate semi-monthly, tax-efficient income.
  • It differentiates itself from traditional Bitcoin covered call ETFs by avoiding the sale of call options on its underlying Bitcoin holdings.
  • The initial Class E units offering has closed, and the fund is now available through standard investment channels.
Material Impact
  • The launch represents an incremental product expansion for Hamilton ETFs, which already manages over $17 billion in assets.
  • It targets a specific niche: Canadian investors seeking Bitcoin exposure with enhanced yield and reduced volatility via ultra-short-term options.
  • The strategy relies on modest leverage and a proprietary options framework, which may attract income-focused crypto investors but introduces complexity and potential tracking error relative to spot Bitcoin.
  • As a new ETF listing, it does not immediately impact Hamilton's consolidated revenue or profitability until assets under management (AUM) accumulate and management fees accrue.
  • The listing on Cboe Canada, which handles ~15% of Canadian listed securities volume, provides adequate liquidity infrastructure but does not guarantee rapid AUM growth.
