Item 8.01 - Other Events.
Changes to Underlying Index Constituents and Fund Investments Under the Generic Listing Standards
The Fund generally seeks to reflect the price of the digital assets included in the CF Institutional Digital Asset Index – US–Settlement Price (the “Underlying Index”). CF Benchmarks Ltd. (“Index Provider”) has
announced that effective December 1, 2025, the Underlying Index will add several new digital asset constituents. As of December 1, 2025, the constituents of the Underlying Index will be Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana, Dogecoin, Cardano, Stellar
Lumens, and Chainlink.
In reliance on the new rules adopted by Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the “Exchange”) and approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (SR-CboeBZX-2025-104) (the “Generic Listing Standards”), the
Fund is permitted to hold additional digital assets that are constituents of the Underlying Index, rather than being limited to Bitcoin and Ether. Accordingly, on or about December 1, 2025, the Fund will invest in Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana,
Dogecoin, Cardano, Stellar Lumens, and Chainlink in approximately the same weights as they represent in the Underlying Index. The Underlying Index will remain subject to quarterly rebalancing schedule and other Underlying Index constituents may be
added or removed from time to time in accordance with the Index Provider’s Index Rules and the Generic Listing Standards.
The Sponsor will continue to monitor the Underlying Index’s composition and will adjust the Fund’s holdings in order to replicate the Underlying Index, subject to the requirements set forth in the Generic Listing
Standards and its Second Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust.
Changes to Creation and Redemption Process
The Fund is also disclosing that the Sponsor will now allow for Authorized Participants to conduct in-kind creation and redemption transactions for Creation Units of the Fund, in addition to the current cash creation
and redemption process.
In connection with these changes, the Fund is also filing a prospectus supplement to update and supplement certain information contained in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-281615).
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly
authorized.
