HOW
DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS
PERFORMANCE?
For
the period April 30, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (the “reporting period”), the
Fund’s NAV total return was 3.64%. The Fund
seeks to track the Indxx Bitcoin Adopters Index which had a total return
of 1.68%.
Performance
through the third quarter of the year was positive as it reflected rising
bitcoin prices and increased valuations among
companies associated with corporate bitcoin adoption. During the fourth quarter,
declines in bitcoin prices and equity
market volatility negatively impacted these holdings, reducing returns for the
full reporting period.

HOW
DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS
PERFORMANCE?
For
the period April 2, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (the “reporting period”), the
Fund’s NAV total return was -5.06% compared
to the return of 3.05% of the CoinDesk Bitcoin Index (XBX), a bitcoin spot
index, underperforming the Index by 8.11%
for the reporting period. During the period, the Fund’s relative performance
reflected its option-based income strategy,
which limited participation during periods of rising bitcoin prices while
providing partial downside mitigation during
periods of declining prices. Selling a call option caps upside participation
because the fund is short a call at a defined
strike, either at-the-money (ATM, where the strike is approximately equal to the
current price) or out-of-the-money
(OTM, where the strike is above the current price). The option premium collected
contributes positively to
overall returns in flat or declining markets. However, if the underlying price
rises above the strike plus the premium received,
the Fund’s short call position may limit upside participation relative to the
underlying reference asset.

HOW
DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS
PERFORMANCE?
For
the period January 30, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (the “reporting period”), the
Fund’s NAV total return was 19.18%. The
Fund seeks to track the Indxx Bitcoin Miners Index which had a total return of
19.19% over the same period.
During
the second and third quarters of 2025 the Fund benefited from rising bitcoin
prices and increased valuations of bitcoin
mining-related holdings. During the fourth quarter of 2025, declines in bitcoin
prices and broader equity market volatility
negatively impacted mining-related securities, resulting in a reduction of gains
achieved earlier in the year.

HOW
DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS
PERFORMANCE?
For
the period April 2, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (the “reporting period”), the
Fund’s NAV total return was 0.47% compared
to the return of 3.05% of the CoinDesk Bitcoin Index (XBX), a bitcoin spot
index, underperforming the Index by 2.58%
for the reporting period. Relative performance reflected the Fund’s balanced
approach between income generation and
participation in bitcoin price movements, which moderates returns during
periods of strong index performance. Selling
a call option caps upside participation because the fund is short a call at a
defined strike, either at-the-money (ATM,
where the strike is approximately equal to the current price) or
out-of-the-money (OTM, where the strike is above the
current price). The option premium collected contributes positively to overall
returns in flat or declining markets. However,
if the underlying price rises above the strike plus the premium
received, the Fund’s short call position may limit upside
participation relative to the underlying reference
asset.

HOW
DID THE FUND PERFORM LAST YEAR AND WHAT AFFECTED ITS
PERFORMANCE?
For
the period September 4, 2025 to December 31, 2025 (the “reporting period”), the
Fund’s NAV total return was -25.14% compared
to the return of -33.62% of the CoinDesk Ethereum Index (ETX), an ether spot
index, outperforming the Index by
8.48% for the reporting period. The Fund’s relative outperformance during the
reporting period was primarily attributable
to option premium income, which partially offset declines in the price of ether.
Selling a call option caps upside
participation because the Fund is short a call at a defined strike, either
at-the-money (ATM, where the strike is approximately
equal to the current price) or out-of-the-money (OTM, where the strike is above
the current price). The option
premium collected contributes positively to overall returns in flat or declining
markets. However, if the underlying price
rises above the strike plus the premium received, the Fund’s short call
position may limit upside participation relative to
the underlying reference asset.

NOTE
2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
Funds are investment companies and accordingly follow the investment company
accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 Financial Services
– Investment Companies.
The
following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed
by the Funds. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).
|
A.
|
Security Valuation. All equity
securities, including domestic and foreign common stocks, preferred stocks
and exchange-traded funds that are traded on a national securities
exchange, except those listed on the Nasdaq Global Market®,
Nasdaq Global Select Market®, and the Nasdaq Capital
Market® exchanges (collectively, “Nasdaq”), are valued at the
last reported sale price on the exchange on which the security is
principally traded. Securities traded on Nasdaq will be valued at the
Nasdaq Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). If, on a particular day, an
exchange-traded or Nasdaq security does not trade, then the mean between
the most recent quoted bid and asked prices will be used. All equity
securities that are not traded on a listed exchange are valued at the last
sale price in the over-the-counter market. If a non-exchange traded
security does not trade on a particular day, then the mean between the
last quoted closing bid and asked price will be used. Prices denominated
in foreign currencies are converted to U.S. dollar equivalents at the
current exchange rate, which approximates fair value.
|
Investments
in mutual funds, including money market funds, are valued at their net asset
value (“NAV”) per share.
Exchange-traded
options contracts are valued using the midpoint of quoted bid and ask spread
prices, as provided by independent pricing sources. FLEX Options, which do not
have readily available quoted market prices, are valued using a pricing model
that incorporates observable market inputs, including the underlying reference
asset or index value, strike price, time to expiration, interest rates, and
implied volatility.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
GRAYSCALE
FUNDS TRUST
NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025(Continued)
Securities
for which quotations are not readily available are valued at their respective
fair values in accordance with pricing procedures adopted by the Fund’s Board of
Trustees (the “Board”). When a security is “fair valued,” consideration is given
to the facts and circumstances relevant to the particular situation, including a
review of various factors set forth in the pricing procedures adopted by the
Board. The use of fair value pricing by a Fund may cause the NAV of its shares
to differ significantly from the NAV that would be calculated without regard to
such considerations.
As
described above, the Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of
their investments on a recurring basis. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that
prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of inputs are:
|
Level 1
–
|
Unadjusted
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that
the Fund has the ability to access. |
|
Level 2
–
|
Observable
inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs
may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive
market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds,
credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
|
|
Level 3
–
|
Unobservable
inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable
inputs are not available; representing the Fund’s own assumptions about
the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or
liability and would be based on the best information available.
|
The
availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is
affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of
security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the
marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to
the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are
less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value
requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in
determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in
Level 3.
The
inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair
value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair
value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is
determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value

B.
|
Foreign Currency. Investment securities
and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollar amounts at the date of valuation. Purchases
and sales of investment securities and income and expense items
denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollar amounts
on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate
that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in
foreign exchange rates on investments and currency gains or losses
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions
from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities
held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized
gain or loss from investments. The Funds report net realized foreign
exchange gains or losses that arise from sales of foreign currencies,
currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates
on foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts
of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the
Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually
received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise
from changes in the values of assets and liabilities, other than
investments in securities at fiscal period end, resulting from changes in
exchange rates. |
|
C.
|
Federal Income Taxes. The Funds’ policy
is to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies and
to distribute substantially all of their net investment income and net
capital gains to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision
is required. The Funds plan to file U.S. Federal and applicable state and
local tax returns. |
The
Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the
position is more likely than not to be sustained. Management has analyzed the
Funds’ uncertain tax positions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized
tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions. Management
is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the
total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will change materially in the next 12
months. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. The Funds
recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits
on uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations.
During the current fiscal period, the Funds did not incur any interest or
penalties.
For
tax purposes, the Grayscale Bitcoin Covered Call Subsidiary, Grayscale Bitcoin
Premium Income Subsidiary, and Grayscale Ethereum Covered Call Subsidiary are
exempted Cayman Islands investment companies. The Grayscale Bitcoin Covered Call
Subsidiary, Grayscale Bitcoin Premium Income Subsidiary, and Grayscale Ethereum
Covered Call Subsidiary have each received an undertaking from the Government of
the Cayman Islands exempting them from all local income, profits, and capital
gains taxes. No such taxes are levied in the Cayman Islands at the present time.
For U.S. income tax purposes, the Grayscale Bitcoin Covered Call Subsidiary,
Grayscale Bitcoin Premium Income Subsidiary, and Grayscale Ethereum Covered Call
Subsidiary are controlled foreign corporations (“CFCs”) and as such are not
subject to U.S. income tax. However, as a wholly-owned CFC, the net income and
capital gain of each CFC, to the extent of its earnings and profits, will be
included each year in the respective Fund’s investment company taxable income.
|
D.
|
Security Transactions and Investment Income.
Investment securities transactions are accounted for on the trade
date. Gains and losses realized on sales of securities are determined on a
specific identification basis. Dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income or
separately disclosed, if any, are recorded at the fair value of the
security received. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends, if any, have
been provided for in accordance with the Funds’ understanding of the
applicable tax rules and regulations. Interest income is recorded on an
accrual basis. |
|
E.
|
Distributions to Shareholders.
Distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net
realized gains on securities are declared and paid by the Funds at least
annually. Distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
|
|
F.
|
Use of Estimates. The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of
increases or decreases in net assets from operations during the current
fiscal period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

|
G.
|
Share Valuation. The NAV per share of
each Fund is calculated by dividing the sum of the value of the securities
held by the Fund, plus cash and other assets, minus all liabilities
(including estimated accrued expenses) by the total number of shares
outstanding of the Fund, rounded to the nearest cent. The Funds’ shares
will not be priced on the days on which the New York Stock Exchange
(“NYSE”) is closed for trading. The offering and redemption price per
share of each Fund is equal to the Fund’s NAV per share.
|
|
H.
|
Guarantees and Indemnifications. In the
normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts with service
providers that contain general indemnification clauses. The Funds’ maximum
exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future
claims that may be against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However,
based on experience, the Funds expects the risk of loss to be remote.
|
|
I.
|
Reclassification of Capital Accounts.
U.S. GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating
to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax
reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAV per
share. |
|
J.
|
Consolidation of Subsidiaries. The
Grayscale Bitcoin Covered Call Subsidiary, the Grayscale Bitcoin Premium
Income Subsidiary and the Grayscale Ethereum Covered Call Subsidiary
(together, the “Cayman Subsidiaries”), which are organized under the laws
of the Cayman Islands, are wholly owned, and controlled by each of the
Grayscale Bitcoin Premium Income ETF, the Grayscale Bitcoin Covered Call
ETF and the Grayscale Ethereum Covered Call ETF, respectively (the
“Options Funds”). The Cayman Subsidiaries act as an investment vehicle to
facilitate entering into certain investments for the Options Funds,
consistent with each Option Fund's investment objectives and policies
specified in its prospectus and statement of additional information and
within the limitation of the U.S. federal tax requirements applicable to
regulated investment companies. As of December 31, 2025, the net
assets of the Bitcoin Covered Call ETF were $23,939,018, of which
$4,028,082, or approximately 16.83%, represented the Bitcoin Covered Call
ETF’s ownership of the shares of the Bitcoin Covered Call Subsidiary. As
of December 31, 2025, the net assets of the Bitcoin Premium Income
ETF were $3,926,394, of which $440,322, or approximately 11.21%,
represented the Bitcoin Premium Income ETF’s ownership of the shares of
the Bitcoin Premium Income Subsidiary. As of December 31, 2025, the
net assets of the Ethereum Covered Call ETF were $6,273,646, of which
$1,137,600, or approximately 18.13%, represented the Ethereum Covered Call
ETF’s ownership of the shares of the Ethereum Covered Call Subsidiary.

|
K.
|
Segment Reporting. In November 2023, the
FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to
Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 is intended to
improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through
enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses, allowing
financial statement users to better understand the components of a
segment’s profit or loss and assess potential future cash flows for each
reportable segment and the entity as a whole. The amendments expand a
public entity’s segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant
segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating
decision maker, clarifying when an entity may report one or more
additional measures to assess segment performance, requiring enhanced
interim disclosures and providing new disclosure requirements for entities
with a single reportable segment, among other new disclosure requirements.
|
Each
Fund operates as a single segment entity. Each Fund’s income, expenses, assets,
and performance are regularly monitored and assessed by the Chief Financial
Officer, who serves as the chief operating decision maker, using the information
presented in the financial statements and financial highlights.
|
L.
|
Derivatives. The Options Funds may buy
and write (sell) options on securities and other assets for the purpose of
realizing its investment objectives. Options may settle in cash or settle
by a delivery of securities or other assets underlying the options. By
buying a call option, the Fund has the right, in return for a premium paid
during the term of the option, to buy the asset underlying the option at
the exercise price. By writing (selling) a call option the Fund becomes
obligated during the term of the option to sell the asset underlying the
option at the exercise price if the option is exercised; conversely, by
buying a put option, the Fund has the right, in return for a premium paid
during the term of the option, to sell the asset underlying the option at
the exercise price. By writing a put option, the Fund becomes obligated
during the term of the option to purchase the asset underlying the option
at the exercise price if the option is exercised.

TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025(Continued)
When
the Fund purchases an option, the premium paid by it is recorded as an asset of
the Fund. When the Fund writes an option, an amount equal to the net premium
(the premium less the commission) received by the Fund is included in the
liability section of the Fund’s statement of assets and liabilities as a
deferred credit. The amount of this asset or deferred credit will be
subsequently marked-to-market to reflect the current value of the option
purchased or written. The current value of the traded option is the last sale
price or, in the absence of a sale, the current bid price. If an option
purchased by the Fund expires unexercised, the Fund realizes a loss equal to the
premium paid. The Bitcoin Covered Call ETF, Bitcoin Premium Income ETF, and
Ethereum Covered Call ETF invest in traditional exchange-traded and FLEX options
contracts.

NOTE
3 – COMMITMENTS AND OTHER RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Grayscale
Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”), serves as the investment adviser to the Funds.
Pursuant to an Investment Advisory Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) between the
Trust, on behalf of the Funds, and the Adviser, the Adviser provides investment
advice to the Funds and oversees the day-to-day operations of the Funds, subject
to the direction and control of the Board and the officers of the Trust. Under
the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is also responsible for arranging, in
consultation with Vident Asset Management (the “Sub-Adviser”), transfer agency,
custody, fund administration and accounting, and all other non-distribution
related services necessary for the Funds to operate. Under the Advisory
Agreement, the Adviser has agreed to pay all expenses of the Funds, except for:
the fee paid to the Adviser pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, interest charges
on any borrowings, taxes, brokerage commissions and other expenses incurred in
placing orders for the purchase and sale of securities and other investment
instruments, acquired fund fees and expenses, accrued deferred tax liability,
litigation and litigation-related indemnification expenses, distribution fees
and expenses paid by the Fund under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, compensation payable to a party not affiliated
with the Adviser in connection with the recovery of tax reclaims, and other
extraordinary or non-routine expenses. For services provided to the Funds, each
Fund pays the Adviser a unified management fee, which is calculated daily and
paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.59% for the Bitcoin Adopters ETF, 0.65% for
the Bitcoin Covered Call ETF, 0.65% for the Bitcoin Premium Income ETF, 0.59%
for the Bitcoin Miners ETF, and 0.65% for the Ethereum Covered Call ETF based on
each Fund’s average daily net assets. There is no specific fee related to the
management of the Cayman Subsidiaries. The Adviser is responsible for paying the
Sub-Adviser.
U.S.
Bancorp Fund Services, LLC, doing business as U.S. Bank Global Fund Services
(“Fund Services” or “Administrator”), acts as the Funds’ Administrator and, in
that capacity, performs various administrative and accounting services for the
Funds. The Administrator prepares various federal and state regulatory filings,
reports and returns for the Funds, including regulatory compliance
monitoring and financial reporting; prepares reports and materials to be
supplied to the Board; monitors the activities of the Funds’ Custodian, transfer
agent and fund accountant. Fund Services also serves as the transfer agent and
fund accountant to the Funds. U.S. Bank N.A. (the “Custodian” and “Securities
Lending Agent”), an affiliate of Fund Services, serves as the Funds’
Custodian.
A
trustee and all officers are affiliated with the Adviser.

NOTE
4 – SECURITIES LENDING
The
Funds may lend up to 331∕3 percent of the value of the securities in their
portfolios to brokers, dealers and financial institutions (but not individuals)
under terms of participation in a securities lending program administered by the
Securities Lending Agent. The securities lending agreement requires that loans
are collateralized at the time the securities are loaned in an amount equal to
at least 102% of the value of any domestic loaned securities at the time of the
loan, plus accrued interest. The use of loans of foreign securities, which are
denominated and payable in U.S. dollars, shall be collateralized in an amount
equal to 105% of the value of any loaned securities at the time of the loan plus
accrued interest. In no event shall the margin percentage be less than 100% of
the market value of the loaned securities. The Funds receive compensation in the
form of fees and earn interest on the cash collateral. The amount of fees
depends on a number of factors including the type of security and length of the
loan. The Funds continue to receive interest payments or dividends on the
securities loaned during the borrowing period. Gain or loss in the fair value of
securities loaned, that may occur during the term of the loan, will be for the
account of the Funds. The Funds have the right, under the terms of the
securities lending agreement, to recall the securities from the borrower on
demand.
The
securities lending agreement provides that, in the event of a borrower’s
material default, the Securities Lending Agent shall take all actions the
Securities Lending Agent deems appropriate to liquidate the collateral, purchase
replacement securities at the Securities Lending Agent’s expense, or pay the
Funds an amount equal to the market value of the loaned securities, subject to
certain limitations which are set forth in detail in the securities lending
agreement between the Funds and the Securities Lending Agent.
As
of the end of the current fiscal period, certain of the Funds had loaned
securities and received cash collateral for the loans. The cash collateral is
invested by the Securities Lending Agent in accordance with approved investment
guidelines. Those guidelines require the cash collateral to be invested in
readily marketable, high quality, short-term obligations; however, such
investments are subject to risk of payment delays or default on the part of the
issuer or counterparty or otherwise may not generate sufficient interest to
support the costs associated with securities lending. The applicable Funds could
also experience delays in recovering their securities and possible loss of
income or value if the borrower fails to return the borrowed securities,
although the Funds are indemnified from this risk by contract with the
Securities Lending Agent. The applicable Funds manage credit exposure arising
from these lending transactions by, in appropriate circumstances, entering into
master netting agreements and collateral agreements with third party borrowers
that provide such Funds, in the event of default (such as bankruptcy or a
borrower’s failure to pay or perform), the right to net a third party borrower’s
rights and obligations under such agreement and liquidate and set off collateral
against the net amount owed by the counterparty.
As

NOTE
7 – SHARE TRANSACTIONS
Shares
of the Funds are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange Arca, Inc.
(“NYSE Arca”). Market prices for the shares may be different from their NAV. The
Funds issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis at NAV generally in large
blocks of shares, called “Creation Units.” Creation Units are issued and
redeemed principally in-kind for securities included in a specified universe.
Once created, shares generally trade in the secondary market at market prices
that change throughout the day. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares
are not redeemable securities of the Funds. Creation Units may only be purchased
or redeemed by certain financial institutions (“Authorized Participants”). An
Authorized Participant is either (i) a broker-dealer or other participant in the
clearing process through the Continuous Net Settlement System of the National
Securities Clearing Corporation or (ii) a Depository Trust Company participant
and, in each case, must have executed a Participant Agreement with the
Distributor. Most retail investors do not qualify as Authorized Participants nor
have the resources to buy and sell whole Creation Units. Therefore, they are
unable to purchase or redeem shares directly from the Funds. Rather, most retail
investors may purchase shares in the secondary market with the assistance of a
broker and are subject to customary brokerage commissions or fees.
The
Funds currently offer one class of shares, which has no front-end sales load, no
deferred sales charge, and no redemption fee. A fixed transaction fee is imposed
for the transfer and other transaction costs associated with the creation or
redemption of Creation Units. The standard fixed transaction fee for the Funds
is $300, payable to the Custodian. The fixed transaction fee may be waived on
certain orders if the Funds’ Custodian has determined to waive some or all of
the costs associated with the order or another party, such as the Adviser, has
agreed to pay such fee. In addition, a variable fee, payable to the Funds, may
be charged on all cash transactions or substitutes for Creation Units of up to a
maximum of 2% as a percentage of the value of the Creation Units subject to the
transaction. Variable fees

received
by the Funds, if any, are displayed in the Capital Transactions section of the
Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The Funds may issue an unlimited number of
shares of beneficial interest, with no par value. Shares of the Funds have equal
rights and privileges.
NOTE
8 – RISKS
Concentration
Risk. To the extent the Funds invest more
heavily in particular industries, groups of industries, or sectors of the
economy, their performance will be especially sensitive to developments that
significantly affect those industries, groups of industries, or sectors of the
economy, and the value of shares may rise and fall more than the value of shares
that invest in securities of companies in a broader range of industries or
sectors.
Derivative
Instruments. The Options Funds will invest in
options, a type of derivative instrument. Derivatives can be more sensitive to
changes in interest rates or to sudden fluctuations in market prices than
conventional securities, which can result in greater losses for the Options
Funds. In addition, the prices of the derivative instruments and the prices of
underlying securities, interest rates or currencies they are designed to reflect
may not move together as expected. Derivatives are usually traded on margin,
which may subject the Options Funds to margin calls. Margin calls may force the
Options Funds to liquidate assets.
NOTE
9 – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
In
December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740):
Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Effective for annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2024, the amendments require greater disaggregation of
disclosures related to income taxes paid. The Funds have adopted ASU 2023-09,
with no material impact on the Funds’ financial statements.

Basis for Opinion
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements based
on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to
be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement whether due to error or fraud.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material
misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and
performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities
owned as of December 31, 2025, by correspondence with the custodian and
brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other
auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We
have served as the auditor of one or more Grayscale Advisors, LLC investment
companies since 2022.
