Selling Cash Secured Puts on margin while holding BOXX as collateral

I'm trying to use BOXX as collateral for selling CSP's, but it's an ETF and can't be used directly. I'll sell BOXX before assignment if I'm assigned early.

What I wish I knew
"Holding BOXX for at least a year is required to benefit from LTCG."
If I could tell you one thing
"Be conservative when opening contracts and don't over-leverage."

Clear regret.
The downsides outweighed what was gained.
