About Hashdex Nasdaq Crypto Index US ETF

The NCIQ fund aims to replicate the performance of an index composed of the two leading digital assets, Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH). To achieve this, it directly invests in spot Bitcoin and spot Ether, deliberately avoiding the use of leverage or complex derivatives. The fund also maintains cash reserves to cover its operational expenses. Its investment approach utilizes a market capitalization-weighted strategy, ensuring its holdings in both cryptocurrencies correspond precisely to their proportions within the underlying index. Notably, the fund is prohibited from investing in crypto-related securities, tokenized assets, or stablecoins. Investors should recognize that this fund presents a higher risk profile compared to other exchange-traded products (ETPs) that indirectly hold digital assets, a consequence of the substantial price volatility inherent in cryptocurrency markets. Moreover, the methodology governing its underlying index is rules-based, potentially allowing for the inclusion of additional crypto assets in the future, pending regulatory approval from the SEC. The index itself is rebalanced quarterly.
