VIA EDGAR TRANSMISSION Division of Investment Management Washington, DC 20549 Re: Tidal Trust II (the “Trust”) Post-Effective Amendment No. 242 to the Trust’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A (the “Amendment”) File Nos. 811-23793; 333-264478

Dear Ms. White:

This correspondence responds to a comment the Trust received from the staff of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff” or the “Commission”) on August 26, 2024, with respect to the Registration Statement and the Trust’s proposed new series, the Defiance Large Cap ex-Mag 7 ETF (the “Fund”). For your convenience, the comment has been reproduced with a response following the comment. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined have the same meaning as in the Registration Statement.

1. If there is a licensing agreement governing the Fund’s use of the Index, please confirm that you will file it as an Exhibit to the Fund’s registration statement.

Response: The Trust confirms that a licensing agreement for the Index exists, but it is between the Index provider and the Fund’s adviser. To clarify, neither the Trust nor the Fund is a party to this licensing agreement. Therefore, it is not considered a material contract required to be included as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.

2. Please supplementally provide the Staff with a Fee Table and Expense Example pre-effectively.

Response: The Fund’s completed Fees and Expenses table and Expense Example are as shown in the attached Appendix A.

3. Please disclose in principal strategies, like in the SAI, that the Fund will concentrate to approximately the same extent as the Index. Please also add risk disclosures to this effect.

Response: The Trust confirms that the Prospectus has been supplemented to add such disclosures.

4. Please supplementally provide the Staff with the Index methodology or White Paper.

Response: The Trust provided the Staff with the Index’s white paper supplementally via email on October 3, 2024.

5. Please disclose how often and when the Fund will be reconstituted. Will it be in accordance with the Index?

Response: The Trust confirms that the Prospectus has been revised to reflect that the Fund will be reconstituted in accordance with the Index’s reconstitution schedule.
