MSTR & Derivative Cheat Sheet (Patreon)

Simple little table to help you understand all the MSTR Alternatives.

Tons of chatter around MSTY.... I am not in MSTY because my short term cap gains tax rate is high and I believe during exponential times MSTR outperforms. Also during spikes, Covered Call Strategy caps the gainers. From April 2024 to April 2025, during a Bitcoin bull run, a $1,000 investment in MSTR grew to $1,895 (+89%), while the same in MSTY, with dividends reinvested, grew to $1,591 (+59%). This shows MSTR outperformed MSTY, supporting the idea that MSTY's gains are limited during rapid Bitcoin price increases.

While MSTY offers monthly income (e.g., dividends ranging from $4.13 in April 2024 to $1.33 in April 2025), it sacrifices growth potential. If income is your priority, MSTY might still appeal, but for maximizing gains in Bitcoin bull runs, MSTR seems better.

STRF now on the other hand is super interesting for large cash balances instead of Money Market.

Beware MSTX and MSTU
