Investment Objective: |
EETH is the first U.S. exchange-traded fund that seeks to correspond to the performance of ether. EETH invests in ether futures and does not invest in ether. There is no guarantee the fund will closely track ether returns. Ether is a digital asset. The ownership and operation of ether is determined by participants in an online, peer-to-peer net-work sometimes referred to as the "Ethereum Network." The Ethereum Network connects computers that run publicly accessible, or "open source," software that follows the rules and procedures governing the Ethereum Network. This is commonly referred to as the Ethereum Protocol (and is described in more detail in the section entitled "The Ethereum Protocol" in the Fund's Prospectus). The value of ether is not backed by any government, corporation, or other identified body. Instead, its value is determined in part by the supply and demand in markets created to facilitate the trading of ether. Ownership and transaction records for ether are protected through public-key cryptography. The supply of ether is determined by the Ethereum Protocol. No single entity owns or operates the Ethereum Network. |
