Comparable structures / precedent atlas

Which BTC-linked structures actually transfer to FRTL and UBTC?

How to read the scores

Every structure carries two separate 1–5 scores. FRTL asks whether it validates the note: liability, collateral, guarantee, rating, tenor, documentation, or buyer. UBTC asks whether it helps the issuer operate: BTC financing, options monetization, custody, distribution, capital efficiency, or pipeline. So BTCI’s FRTL 3/5 · UBTC 5/5 reads as adjacent evidence for the note and direct read-across for the issuer.

NEOS Bitcoin High Income ETF

$1.38bnNet assets · 25 Sep 2026

The clearest scaled proof that investors will buy a Treasury-collateralized Bitcoin exposure with an options-income sleeve. An ETF has daily liquidity and no fixed redemption promise, so it does not prove demand for ten-year UBTC credit or a guarantor floor.

iShares Bitcoin Premium Income ETF

$94mNet assets · 28 Sep 2026

Shows a mainstream wrapper for the same core pitch UBTC is studying: retain meaningful Bitcoin upside while harvesting volatility as income. BITA owns Bitcoin rather than anchoring a bond claim with Treasuries, and its monthly distribution is not a contractual coupon.

The benchmark. IG was earned on 8 years of loss data and low LTV, with no guarantor. Priced at ~335bps over benchmark. FRTL has neither the data nor the size.
