SCHD ETF Daily Update: November 19, 2025 - Dividend Titans Face Crypto Challenge
Traditional dividend ETFs scramble as digital assets reshape income investing
SCHD's steady dividend stream faces unprecedented competition from crypto staking yields hitting 5-12% APY
The Yield Revolution
While SCHD maintains its 3.4% dividend yield, Ethereum's merge and proof-of-stake protocols deliver consistent returns that make traditional income vehicles look like relics. Institutional money continues flowing into crypto staking products - because why settle for quarterly dividends when you can earn daily compounding yields?
Portfolio managers clinging to 20th century strategies are watching their AUM bleed to digital alternatives. The math doesn't lie: decentralized finance protocols now generate more consistent returns than entire sectors of the S&P 500.
Traditional finance's favorite income play just got disrupted by code. The smart money isn't waiting for ex-dividend dates anymore - it's building its own yield engines on blockchain rails.
