Coinbase Launches Bitcoin Yield Fund: Could It Be the Key to Profiting From Bitcoin?

For long-time Bitcoin holders, a frustrating dilemma has always existed: their assets don’t offer any returns while they sit in cold storage. Now, with Coinbase Asset Management launching its Bitcoin Yield Fund (CBYF) on May 1st, 2025, this problem may soon be solved. CBYF promises to provide investors with a potentially lucrative 4%-8% annual return on their Bitcoin holdings – all paid directly in Bitcoin. Early backers such as Abu Dhabi-regulated Aspen Digital have already invested in the fund, underscoring growing demand for a low-risk, bitcoin-denominated yield instrument.
