YieldMax™ MSTY vs. Defiance MST: Tax Efficiency, ROC & 5‑Year Outlook

  Introduction The recent explosion of option‑overlay ETFs has spotlighted two novel players tied to MicroStrategy (MSTR) exposure: MSTY (YieldMax™ MSTR Option Income Strategy ETF) , launched February 21, 2024 MST (Defiance Leveraged Long + Income MSTR ETF) , launched May 1, 2025 Both seek to harvest option premium against MSTR’s famed bitcoin‑linked volatility, but their structures, tax treatments, and return‑of‑capital profiles differ — shaping very different long‑term outlooks.

Bhairava: Fierce Guardian of Dharma

Bhairava (Kāla Bhairava) is a formidable incarnation of Lord Shiva, often depicted with a garland of skulls and wielding weapons. He embodies the aspect of Time and death (“Kāla”) and is revered as a protector who removes fear and evil from the world. In Hindu tradition he is explicitly called the Kotwal (chief constable) of Kashi (Varanasi) – a divine guardian who watches over the sacred city. His terrifying iconography symbolizes the power to vanquish ignorance and negativity. Devotees believe that chanting Bhairava’s mantras or hymns purifies the mind, dispels obstacles and grants freedom from fear. Bhairava’s Role as Guardian Kṣetra Pālaka (Guardian of Sacred Spaces) : Bhairava is traditionally regarded as the protector of sacred places (temples, pilgrimage spots), and by extension, those who invoke him believe that his vigilance can extend to protecting a broader area — such as a village or a country.
