Cover calls work really well during bear markets.

The Monte Carlo simulation based on the power law slopes is more conservative than traditional Black-Scholes (the trillion dollar equation).
This is because we consider properly the large tails of the distribution of possible Bitcoin returns.
This is a full backtest on the history of Bitcoin.
Cover calls using this method can give very safe 1% premium a month and 2 % with just a bit more risk.
This is while being fully exposed to long term Bitcoin growth.

Notice how the price wants to move along the power law even after a correction. Corrections are almost vertical and then price moves along a path parallel to the power law.
Bitcoin does mostly power law things.

1. The long-run convergence — the gold dashed power law prediction and the teal 4-year median have been converging steadily since 2013 and are now essentially on top of each other at ~38–42%. This is arguably the single most compelling empirical confirmation in the book: the 4-year smoothed return is tracking the theoretical prediction from a mathematical model fitted years earlier.
2. Cycle amplitude decay in CAGR terms — peak 1-year CAGRs fell from 27,628% (2011) → 9,900% (2013) → 1,641% (2017) → 1,002% (2021) → 135% (2025). The oscillations are dampening toward the power law baseline, exact

When you take a long trend look at Bitcoin nothing has changed. Even without a run away top we are averaging returns that are exactly what predicted by the power law. Right now these averaged CAGR is around 40 %. Again do not look at a particular year but averages over an horizon of at least 4 years.

Don't follow Bitcoin analyses from somebody that sold all his Bitcoins.
