Updates to the Fund's Fund Component Value disclosure:
Determination of Digital Asset Reference Rates When Indicative Prices or Index Prices are Unavailable
In case of the unavailability of either Indicative Prices or Index Prices for a particular Fund Component, the Manager will use the following cascading set of rules to calculate the Digital Asset Reference Rates for that Fund Component. For the avoidance of doubt, the Manager will employ the below rules sequentially and in the order as presented below, should one or more specific rule(s) fail:
1.
Digital Asset Reference Rate = The price set by the relevant Indicative Price or Index Price as of4:00 p.m. ,New York time, on the valuation date. If the relevant Indicative Price or Index Price becomes unavailable, or if the Manager determines in good faith that the Indicative Price or Index Price does not reflect an accurate digital asset price, then the Manager will, on a best efforts basis, contact the Reference Rate Provider to obtain the Digital Asset Reference Rate directly from the Reference Rate Provider. If after such contact the Indicative Price or Index Price remains unavailable or the Manager continues to believe in good faith that the Indicative Price or Index Price does not reflect an accurate price for the relevant digital asset, then the Manager will employ the next rule to determine the Digital Asset Reference Rate. There are no predefined criteria to make a good faith assessment and it will be made by the Manager in its sole discretion. 2. Digital Asset Reference Rate = The price set by Coin Metrics Real-Time Rate as of4:00 p.m. ,New York time, on the valuation date (the "Secondary Digital Asset Reference Rate"). The Secondary Digital Asset Reference Rate is a real-time reference rate price, calculated using trade data from constituent markets selected by Coin Metrics (the "Secondary Reference Rate Provider"). The Secondary Digital Asset Reference Rate is calculated by applying weighted-median techniques to such trade data where half the weight is derived from the trading volume on each constituent market and half is derived from inverse price variance, where a constituent market with high price variance as a result of outliers or market anomalies compared to other constituent markets is assigned a smaller weight. If the Secondary Digital Asset Reference Rate for the relevant Fund Component becomes unavailable, or if the Manager determines in good faith that the Secondary Digital Asset Reference Rate does not reflect an accurate price for such Fund Component, then the Manager will, on a best efforts basis, contact the Secondary Reference Rate Provider to obtain the Secondary Digital Asset Reference Rate directly from the Secondary Reference Rate Provider. If after such contact the Secondary Digital Asset Reference Rate remains unavailable or the Manager continues to believe in good faith that the Secondary Digital Asset Reference Rate does not reflect an accurate price for such Fund Component, then the Manager will employ the next rule to determine the Digital Asset Reference Rate. There are no predefined criteria to make a good faith assessment and it will be made by the Manager in its sole discretion. 3. Digital Asset Reference Rate = The price set by the Fund's principal market for the relevant Fund Component (the "Tertiary Pricing Option") as of4:00 p.m. ,New York time, on the valuation date. The Tertiary Pricing Option is a spot price derived from the relevant principal market's public data feed that is believed to be consistently publishing pricing information as of4:00 p.m. ,New York time, and is provided to the Manager via an application programming interface. If the Tertiary Pricing Option becomes unavailable, or if the Manager determines in good faith that the Tertiary Pricing Option does not reflect an accurate price for such Fund Component, then the Manager will, on a best efforts basis, contact the Tertiary Pricing Provider to obtain the Tertiary Pricing Option directly from the Tertiary Pricing Provider. If after such contact the Tertiary Pricing Option remains unavailable after such contact or the Manager continues to believe in good faith that the Tertiary Pricing Option does not reflect an accurate price for such Fund Component, then the Manager will employ the next rule to determine the Digital Asset Reference Rate. There are no predefined criteria to make a good faith assessment and it will be made by the Manager in its sole discretion. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Digital Asset Reference Rate = The Manager will use its best judgment to determine a good faith estimate of the Digital Asset Reference Rate. There are no predefined criteria to make a good faith assessment and it will be made by the Manager in its sole discretion.
