This information must be preceded or accompanied by a prospectus, click here to view or download prospectus. We advise you to consider the fund's objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. The prospectus contains this and other important information about the fund. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest.

The Fund is not registered under the Investment Company Act, 1940 (the “40 Act”) and is not subject to regulation under the 40 Act, unlike most mutual funds or ETFs. The Fund may trade at a premium or discount to its net asset value. The Fund is new and has a limited operating history upon which investors may base an evaluation of its likely performance.

The value of the Fund relates directly to the value of the underlying digital asset it holds, the value of which is highly volatile and subject to fluctuations due to a number of factors.

The Fund relies on third party service providers to perform certain functions essential to the affairs of the Trust. Some of these service providers may not be subject to federal regulation and oversight and the replacement of such service providers could pose a challenge to the safekeeping of the digital asset and to the operations of the Fund.

No guarantee or representation is made that the Fund’s investment strategy, including, without limitation, its investment objectives or strategies, will be successful, and investment results may vary substantially over time. Nothing herein is intended to imply that the Fund’s investment methodology or that investing may be considered “conservative,” “safe,” “risk free,” or “risk averse.”

This material is not an offer or solicitation of any kind to buy or sell any securities outside of the United States of America. Nothing in this content should be considered a solicitation to buy or an offer to sell shares of any investment in any jurisdiction where the offer or solicitation would be unlawful under the securities laws of such jurisdiction, nor is it intended as investment, tax, financial, or legal advice.

Digital Asset Risk Disclosures

Many digital assets, including Bitcoin, have experienced significant volatility in trading prices in recent periods and may continue to experience such volatility in the future.  Such volatility in digital asset prices could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Fund and the shares could lose all or substantially all of their value.

Digital assets represent a new and rapidly evolving industry. The value of the Fund depends, among other things, on the acceptance of the digital assets in general and Bitcoin in particular, the capabilities and development of blockchain technologies and the fundamental investment characteristics of Bitcoin.

Digital asset networks are developed and maintained by a diverse set of contributors and the perception that certain contributors will no longer contribute to the network or may decrease their contributions to, or involvement with the network could have an adverse effect on the market price of the related digital asset.

Digital assets may have concentrated ownership and large sales or distributions by holders of such digital assets could have an adverse effect on the market price of such digital assets.

The Fund holds Bitcoin; however, an investment in the Fund is not a direct investment in Bitcoin. As a non-diversified and single industry fund, the value of the shares may fluctuate more than shares invested in a broader range of industries.  Because the value of the Fund is correlated with the value of Bitcoin, it is important to understand the investment attributes of, and the market for, the underlying digital asset (Bitcoin). Please consult with your financial professional.

A substantial direct investment in digital assets may require expensive and sometimes complicated arrangements in connection with the acquisition, security and safekeeping of the digital asset and may involve the payment of substantial fees to third party service providers through cash payments of U.S. dollars.

Regulation of digital assets, including Bitcoin, continues to evolve across different jurisdictions worldwide, which may cause uncertainty and insecurity as to the legal and tax status of a given digital asset. As Bitcoin and digital assets have grown in both popularity and market size, the U.S. Congress and a number of U.S. federal and state agencies have been examining the operations of digital asset networks, digital asset users and the digital asset spot market. Many of these state and federal agencies have brought enforcement actions and issued advisories and rules relating to digital asset markets. Ongoing and future regulatory actions with respect to digital assets generally or any single digital asset in particular may alter, perhaps to a materially adverse extent, the nature of an investment in the Fund.

The Delegated Sponsor does not store, hold, or maintain custody or control of the Fund’s digital assets but instead has entered into Custodial Services  Agreements with a third parties to facilitate the security of its Bitcoin. The Custodians control and secure the Fund’s Bitcoin, in segregated custody accounts to store private keys, which allows for the transfer of ownership or control of the Fund’s Bitcoin, on the Fund’s behalf. If a Custodian resigns or is removed by the Delegated Sponsor or otherwise, without replacement, it could trigger early termination of the Fund.

Morningstar
Rankings: The percentile rankings are based on the average annual total returns for the periods stated and do not include any sales charges, but do include reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and Rule 12b-1 fees. The highest (or most favorable) percentile rank is 1 and the lowest (or least favorable) percentile rank is 100. The top-performing fund in a category will always receive a rank of 1.

Ratings: The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or "star rating", is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods. Ratings do not take into account sales loads.
