How Dividend Vision calculates yield and returns
Distribution rate (13.01%) has no calculation basis on file. Issuer rates can use a different denominator and date, including ex-date NAV. Trailing-12-month yield (12.99%) is the sum of split-adjusted cash distributions with ex-dates in the last 12 months, divided by the published price. It lags a recent raise or cut. Total return uses split-adjusted close with distributions reinvested on the ex-dividend date (a modeling convention, not the cash-settlement date) from the first stored bar on or after inception through the latest bar, compared with the same window on the benchmark. That is the security's total return, not your personal gain/loss.

About crypto coverage: Cryptocurrencies are tracked as first-class assets with end-of-day price history and ~20-minute delayed quotes 24/7.
Because crypto has no issuer, dividends, fundamentals, or corporate filings, several DV features don't apply: distribution rate, yield, ex-date / payment date, SEC yield, expense ratio,
AUM, splits-adjusted close, top holdings, and the issuer page. The dividend calendar, income forecast, and DRIP / yield-on-cost calculators will skip crypto positions.
Brokerage news and SEC filings streams cover equities only.
