Purpose Ether Staking Cor... (DTSRF)

About DTSRF

The fund invests directly in ether that are held securely in cold storage while seeking to benefit from staking. Staking refers to the proof-of-stake consensus protocols that ensure transactions are properly recorded on a blockchain. The process allows owners of a cryptocurrency to validate block transactions through validators that verify the accuracy of recorded data. In return, validators are rewarded with digital assets. For the fund, rewards are paid in ether and will depend on the amount of ether staked. Staked ether serve as collateral that are locked in the network but are at risk of loss if validators fail to meet network rules. The fund manager selects and directs experienced sub-custodians as validators for staking activities. In addition, the fund manager has discretion in the amount of staked ether from the portfolio. The ETF does not intend to use derivatives or employ leverage to acquire ether. It may also hold cash, cash equivalents or other money market instruments.
