Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) reports 32% NAV decline as bitcoin falls
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, an exchange-traded product holding bitcoin, reported sharply lower results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as bitcoin prices declined. Net assets fell from $17.64 billion at December 31, 2025 to $10.30 billion, while shares outstanding decreased to 200.3 million.
The quantity of bitcoin held declined from 201,684 to 174,383, driven by redemptions and transfers to pay the Sponsor fee. NAV per share dropped from $76.21 to $51.44, a total return at NAV of (32.51)% for the six-month period, primarily reflecting a $5.71 billion net unrealized depreciation on bitcoin.
Operations produced a net decrease in net assets of $5.35 billion for the six months. The Trust charges a unified Sponsor fee of 0.25% of Bitcoin Holdings and shows an annualized expense ratio of 0.24%. It uses no leverage or derivatives, reports effective disclosure controls, and discloses no legal proceedings or new risk factors.

Negative

The share base was still lower after quarter-end: 197,403,476 shares on July 31 versus 200,328,476 on June 30.
This Form 10-Q is an unaudited quarterly report that records the Trust at
The Trust continuously creates and redeems 25,000-share Baskets in exchange for bitcoin or cash. Because it reports no cash balance at period-end, it may sell bitcoin to fund redemptions or expenses not assumed by the Sponsor; the filing therefore describes a bitcoin-based liquidity mechanism rather than a cash reserve.

Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund
Notes to the Financial Statements
Note 1: Organization
Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (the “Trust”) is a Delaware Statutory Trust that was formed on March 17, 2021 pursuant to the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. The Trust issues common units of beneficial interest (“Shares”), which represent units of fractional undivided beneficial interest in and ownership of the Trust. The Trust’s investment objective is to seek to track the performance of bitcoin, as measured by the performance of the Fidelity Bitcoin Reference Rate (the “Index”), adjusted for the Trust’s expenses and other liabilities. The Index is designed to reflect the performance of bitcoin in United States (“US”) dollars. The Trust is sponsored by FD Funds Management LLC (the “Sponsor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of FMR LLC. CSC Delaware Trust Company is the trustee of the Trust (the “Trustee”). The Trust will operate pursuant to a Trust Agreement, as amended and/or restated from time to time (the “Trust Agreement”). On January 11, 2024, the Trust commenced operations and Shares commenced trading on Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the “Exchange”).
The Trust is passively managed. The Shareholders of the Trust do not have control or involvement in the management of the Trust. The Trust, the Sponsor, and the Trust’s service providers do not loan or pledge the assets of the Trust or use those assets as collateral for any loan or similar arrangement unless required to facilitate transaction settlement.
Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of the significant accounting and reporting policies used in preparing the financial statements.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and are stated in US dollars. The Trust qualifies as an investment company for accounting purposes pursuant to the accounting and reporting guidance under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies (“ASC 946”). The Trust uses fair value as its method of accounting for its investment in bitcoin in accordance with its classification as an investment company for accounting purposes. The Trust is not a registered investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Trust operates as a single operating segment. The Trust's profit or loss, assets, and performance are regularly monitored and assessed as a whole by the Sponsor of the Trust, using the information presented in the financial statements and financial highlights. In the opinion of the Trust, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair statement of financial statements for the periods presented. These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Trust’s financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual amounts may ultimately differ from those estimates and the differences could be material.
Bitcoin Assets
Bitcoin is a type of digital asset based on an open‐source cryptographic protocol existing on a Bitcoin network. Digital assets are defined broadly as digital records that are made using cryptography for verification and security purposes, on a distributed ledger and may be characterized by their ability to be used as a medium of exchange, a representation to provide or access goods or services, or as a financing vehicle, such as a security. The Trust identifies bitcoin as an “other investment” in accordance with ASC 946.
6
Investment Valuation
Due to the Trust’s classification as an investment company, investments in bitcoin are recorded on the financial statements at their estimated fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 requires the determination of the Trust’s principal market or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market (principal market) and the assumption that bitcoin is sold in their principal market. The Trust determines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants using the principal market on the measurement date and, therefore, the principal market used must be accessible to the Trust on that date. The Trust determines its principal market price for GAAP reporting and utilizes an exchange-traded price from that principal market as of 11:59:59 p.m., Eastern time (“EST”), on the financial statement measurement date.
GAAP establishes the following fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The inputs are categorized in one of the following levels:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Trust is able to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include (a) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, (b) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, (c) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or (d) inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3 – Inputs that are unobservable (including the Trust’s own data and assumptions based on the best information available) and significant to the entire fair value measurement.
To the extent that investments are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Investments traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The availability of valuation techniques and observable inputs can vary across investments and is affected by various factors, including the nature of the investment, whether the investment is new or unestablished in the marketplace, market liquidity and other investment specific characteristics. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, determining fair value requires more judgment. Because of the uncertainty inherent in valuation, those estimated values may be materially higher or lower than the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. Therefore, the degree of judgment exercised by management in determining fair value is greatest for investments categorized in Level 3.
In some circumstances, the inputs used to measure fair value might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Investment Transactions and Related Investment Income
The Trust records investment transactions in bitcoin on a trade date basis. For financial reporting purposes, the Trust’s investment holdings and Paid-In-Capital include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. The Trust’s purchases are recorded at cost, including transaction fees, and are subsequently fair valued in accordance with the Trust’s fair valuation policy. Changes in fair value are reflected as the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment in bitcoin. Realized gains and losses are determined on the basis of identified cost and reflected as net realized gain (loss) on investment in bitcoin sold for redemptions, net realized gain (loss) on investment in bitcoin distributed for redemptions and net realized gain (loss) on investment in bitcoin transferred to pay the Sponsor fee.
Cash
Cash consists of a demand deposit held with a financial institution. At times, deposits may be in excess of federally insured limits. The Trust has not experienced any losses and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on such deposits.

Income Taxes
The Trust intends to be classified as a “grantor trust” for US federal income tax purposes. As a result, the Trust itself should not be subject to US federal income tax. Instead, the Trust’s income and expenses should “flow through” to the Shareholders, and the Trustee will report to Shareholders and the Internal Revenue Service on that basis.
The Sponsor evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of its tax treatment, and its tax reporting to its shareholders, of these positions to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet that threshold would be recorded as an expense in the current year. The Trust is required to analyze all open tax years. Open tax years are those years that are open for examination by the relevant income taxing authority. As of June 30, 2026, the 2025, 2024 and 2023 tax years remain open for examination. There were no examinations in progress at period end.
Expenses
Expenses are recorded as accrued. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate. Expenses included in the accompanying financial statements reflect the expenses of the Trust and do not include any expenses paid by the Sponsor or related entities outside of the Trust.
Note 3: Related Party Agreements and Transactions

Sponsor Fee
The Trust contractually agrees to pay the Sponsor a unified fee of
The Trust may incur certain extraordinary, nonrecurring expenses that are not Sponsor-paid Expenses, including, but not limited to, brokerage and transactions costs associated with the sale or transfer of bitcoin, taxes and governmental charges, expenses and costs of any extraordinary services performed by the Sponsor (or any other service provider) on behalf of the Trust to protect the Trust, the Trust’s assets, or the interests of Shareholders, any indemnification of the Custodian or other agents, service providers or counterparties of the Trust, extraordinary legal fees and expenses, including any legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with litigation, regulatory enforcement or investigation matters (collectively, “Extraordinary Expenses”). To the extent on-chain transaction fees are incurred in connection with transfers or sales of bitcoin to pay Extraordinary Expenses, the Trust will bear such fees.
The Administrator calculates the Sponsor Fee in respect of each day based on the prior day’s Bitcoin Holdings. The Sponsor Fee accrues daily in bitcoin and is payable monthly in bitcoin or cash. To the extent the Trust does not have cash readily available, the Sponsor will cause the transfer or sale of bitcoin in such quantity as may be necessary to permit the payment of Trust expenses and liabilities not assumed by the Sponsor. The amount of bitcoin transferred or sold may vary from time to time depending on the actual sales price of bitcoin relative to the Trust’s expenses and liabilities.
Note 4: Fair Value Measurement
The Trust’s assets recorded at fair value have been categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy as described in the Trust’s significant accounting policies in Note 2.

Note 5: Capital
The Trust is an exchange-traded product. The Trust continuously offers Baskets consisting of Shares to Authorized Participants. The number of outstanding Shares is expected to increase and decrease from time to time as a result of the issuance and redemption of Baskets. The issuance and redemption of Baskets requires the delivery to the Trust or the distribution by the Trust of the amount of bitcoin or cash represented by the Trust’s NAV of the Baskets being issued or redeemed. The total amount of bitcoin or cash required for the issuance or redemption of Baskets will be based on the combined net assets represented by the number of Baskets being issued or redeemed.
9
Shares represent fractional undivided beneficial interests in and ownership of the Trust. Shares issued by the Trust are registered in a book entry system and held in the name of Cede & Co. at the facilities of the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), and one or more global certificates issued by the Trust to DTC evidences the Shares. Shareholders may hold their Shares through DTC if they are direct participants in DTC (“DTC Participants”) or indirectly through entities (such as broker-dealers) that are DTC Participants.
Note 6: Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into certain contracts that provide a variety of indemnities, including contracts with the Sponsor and affiliates of the Sponsor, and its officers, directors, employees, subsidiaries and affiliates, and the Custodian as well as others relating to services provided to the Trust. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these and its other indemnities is unknown. However, no liabilities have arisen under these indemnities in the past and, while there can be no assurances in this regard, there is no expectation that any will occur in the future. Therefore, the Sponsor does not consider it necessary to record a liability in this regard. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
Note 7: Concentration Risk
Unlike other funds that may invest in diversified assets, the Trust’s investment strategy is concentrated in a single asset within a single asset class. This concentration maximizes the degree of the Trust’s exposure to a variety of market risks associated with bitcoin and digital assets. By concentrating its investment strategy solely in bitcoin, any losses suffered as a result of a decrease in the value of bitcoin can be expected to reduce the value of an interest in the Trust and will not be offset by other gains if the Trust were to invest in underlying assets that were diversified.
Note 8: Financial Highlights
The Trust is presenting the following financial highlights related to investment performance and operations of a Share outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The total return, at net asset value is based on the change in NAV of a Share during the period and the total return, at market value is based on the change in market value of a Share on the Exchange during the period. An individual investor’s return and ratios may vary based on the timing of capital transactions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
This information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes to financial statements included in Item 1 of Part I of this Form 10‑Q. The discussion and analysis that follows may contain statements that relate to future events or future performance. In some cases, such forward‑looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially. These statements are based upon certain assumptions and analyses made by the Sponsor on the basis of its perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments, as well as other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Whether or not actual results and developments will conform to the Sponsor’s expectations and predictions, however, is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the special considerations discussed below, general economic, market and business conditions, changes in laws or regulations, including those concerning taxes, made by governmental authorities or regulatory bodies, and other world economic and political developments. Although the Sponsor does not make forward-looking statements unless it believes it has a reasonable basis for doing so, the Sponsor cannot guarantee their accuracy. Except as required by applicable disclosure laws, neither the Trust nor the Sponsor is under a duty to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform such statements to actual results or to a change in the Sponsor’s expectations or predictions.
Overview of the Trust
Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (the “Trust”) is an exchange-traded product that issues shares of beneficial interest (the “Shares”) that trade on the Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the “Exchange”). The Trust’s investment objective is to seek to track the performance of bitcoin, as measured by the performance of the Fidelity Bitcoin Reference Rate (the “Index”), adjusted for the Trust’s expenses and other liabilities. The Index is constructed using bitcoin price feeds from eligible bitcoin spot markets and a volume-weighted median price (“VWMP”) methodology, calculated every 15 seconds based on VWMP spot market data over rolling sixty-minute increments. The Index is designed to reflect the performance of bitcoin in U.S. dollars. In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Trust holds bitcoin and values its Shares daily based on the same methodology used to calculate the Index. The Trust is sponsored by FD Funds Management LLC (the “Sponsor”), a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR LLC.
The Trust is passively managed and does not pursue active management investment strategies, utilize leverage, invest in derivatives, or loan or pledge its assets in seeking to meet its investment objective. The Sponsor believes that the Shares are designed to provide investors with a cost-effective and convenient way to invest in bitcoin without purchasing, holding and trading bitcoin directly. The Trust sells and redeems Shares only with Authorized Participants in exchange for bitcoin or cash and only in blocks of 25,000 Shares (a "Basket").
The Shareholders of the Trust take no part in the management or control, and have no voice in, the Trust’s operations or business. Except in limited circumstances, Shareholders have no voting rights under the Trust Agreement.
Valuation of Bitcoin and Computation of Net Asset Value (“NAV”)
For purposes of calculating the Trust’s net asset value (“Trust’s NAV”) per Share, the Trust’s holdings of bitcoin are valued using the same methodology as used to calculate the Index.
The Trust’s NAV per Share is calculated by:
The Administrator calculates the Trust’s NAV once each Exchange trading day. The Trust’s NAV for a normal trading day is released after 4:00 p.m. Eastern time (“EST”). Trading during the core trading session on the Exchange typically closes at 4:00 p.m. EST. However, the Trust’s NAVs are not officially struck until after 4:00 p.m. EST. The pause after 4:00 p.m. EST provides an opportunity for the Sponsor to algorithmically detect, flag, investigate, and correct unusual pricing should it occur. The Sponsor has established a Valuation and Liquidity Committee to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern the fair valuation process and the activities of the Valuation and Liquidity Committee. If the Valuation and Liquidity Committee determines in good faith that the Index does not reflect an accurate bitcoin price, then the Valuation and Liquidity Committee instructs the Administrator to employ an alternative method to determine the fair value of the Trust’s assets. In determining an alternative fair value method, the Valuation and Liquidity Committee generally considers such criteria as observable market-based inputs, including market quotations and last sale information from third-party pricing services and/or trading platforms on which bitcoin are traded. The Valuation and Liquidity Committee’s selection of third-party pricing services used considers the qualifications, experience, and history of the pricing services and whether their valuation
11
methodologies and procedures are reasonably designed to produce prices that reflect fair value under the prevailing market conditions.
In addition, in order to provide updated information relating to the Trust for use by Shareholders and market professionals, a third-party financial data provider will calculate and disseminate throughout the core trading session on each trading day an updated intraday indicative value (“IIV”). The IIV is calculated based on the Trust’s bitcoin holdings and any other assets expected to comprise that day’s Trust’s NAV calculation. The third-party financial data provider will use the Blockstream Crypto Data Feed Streaming Level 1 as the pricing source for the spot bitcoin. The Blockstream Crypto Data Feed Streaming Level 1 calculates an average of current bitcoin price levels of the bitcoin trading platforms that are available on its feed. The Trust will provide an IIV per Share updated every 15 seconds, as calculated by the Exchange or a third-party financial data provider during the Exchange’s regular trading hours of 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EST (“Regular Trading Hours”). The IIV disseminated during Regular Trading Hours should not be viewed as an actual real-time update of the Trust’s NAV, which will be calculated only once at the end of each trading day as described herein.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Principal Market and Fair Value Determination
The Trust’s periodic financial statements are prepared in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 requires the fair value measurement of bitcoin to assume that transactions take place in the principal market or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market, for bitcoin that the Trust has access to. The Trust may buy and sell bitcoin through brokered, dealer, over-the-counter, exchange or other markets. The Sponsor determines in its sole discretion the valuation sources and policies used to prepare the Trust’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The Trust engaged a third-party pricing service to obtain an exchange-traded price from a principal market for bitcoin, which was determined and designated based on its consideration of several exchange characteristics, including oversight, and the volume and frequency of trades. The exchange-traded price from the principal market on the periodic financial statements is as of 11:59:59 p.m. EST on the Trust’s financial statement measurement date.
Results of Operations
The Quarter Ended June 30, 2026
The Trust’s net assets decreased from approximately $12.8 billion as of March 31, 2026 to $10.3 billion as of June 30, 2026. The change in the Trust’s net assets primarily resulted from a decrease in outstanding Shares, which decreased from 216,003,476 as of March 31, 2026 to 200,328,476 as of June 30, 2026. This was as a result of 20,750,000 Shares (830 Baskets) being created and 36,425,000 Shares (1,457 Baskets) being redeemed during the three months ended June 30, 2026, coupled with a decrease in the price of bitcoin, which decreased 13.25% from $68,129.64 as of March 31, 2026 to $59,101.49 as of June 30, 2026.
The NAV per Share decreased 13.30% from $59.33 as of March 31, 2026 to $51.44 as of June 30, 2026. The Trust’s NAV per Share decreased 13.70% from $59.07 as of March 31, 2026, to $50.98 as of June 30, 2026.
The Trust’s NAV per Share of $71.33 at May 11, 2026, was the highest during the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared with a low of $50.98 at June 30, 2026.
The quantity of bitcoin owned by the Trust and held by the bitcoin custodian decreased from 188,144 as of March 31, 2026 to 174,383 on June 30, 2026. The decrease in quantity resulted from bitcoin transferred to pay the Sponsor fee and redemptions of Shares during the quarter, which corresponded to sales of bitcoin exceeding bitcoin purchased using proceeds from issuances of Shares.
The net decrease in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was $1.6 billion, primarily resulting from a net change in unrealized depreciation on investment in bitcoin of $1.9 billion and a net realized loss of $0.1 billion from the sale of the investment in bitcoin for the redemption of Shares, partially offset by a net realized gain of $0.3 billion from the distribution of the investment in bitcoin for the redemption of Shares.
The Quarter Ended June 30, 2025
The Trust’s net assets increased from approximately $16.3 billion as of March 31, 2025 to $21.6 billion as of June 30, 2025. The change in the Trust’s net assets resulted from an increase in outstanding Shares, which rose from 225,528,476 as of March 31, 2025 to 230,728,476 as of June 30, 2025. This was as a result of 27,975,000 Shares (1,119 Baskets) being created and

The quantity of bitcoin owned by the Trust and held by the bitcoin custodian increased from 196,933 as of March 31, 2025 to 201,347 on June 30, 2025. The increase in quantity resulted from using net cash proceeds received from the increase in capital transactions to purchase bitcoin.
The net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2025, was $4.8 billion, primarily resulting from a net change in unrealized appreciation on investment in bitcoin of $4.8 billion.

The net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $2.5 billion, primarily resulting from a net change in unrealized appreciation on investment in bitcoin of $2.8 billion and a net realized loss of approximately $0.3 billion from the sale of the investment in bitcoin for the redemption of Shares.
Cash Resources and Liquidity
The Trust does not hold a cash balance except in connection with the issuance and redemption of Baskets or to pay expenses not assumed by the Sponsor. To the extent the Trust does not have available cash to facilitate redemptions or pay expenses not assumed by the Sponsor, the Trust will sell bitcoin. When selling bitcoin on behalf of the Trust, the Sponsor endeavors to minimize the Trust’s holdings of assets other than bitcoin. As a consequence, the Sponsor expects that the Trust will have an immaterial amount of cash flow from its operations and that its cash balance will be insignificant at the end of each reporting period. The Trust’s only sources of cash are proceeds from the sale of Baskets and bitcoin.
In exchange for the Sponsor Fee, the Sponsor has agreed to assume most of the expenses incurred by the Trust.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
The Trust has not used, nor does it expect to use in the future, special purpose entities to facilitate off balance sheet financing arrangements and has no loan guarantee arrangements or off balance sheet arrangements of any kind other than agreements entered into in the normal course of business, which may include indemnification provisions related to certain risks service providers undertake in performing services for the Trust. While the Trust’s exposure under such indemnification provisions cannot be estimated, these general business indemnifications are not expected to have a material impact on a Trust’s financial position.
Sponsor Fee payments made to the Sponsor are calculated as a fixed percentage of 0.25% of the Trust’s Bitcoin Holdings. As such, the Sponsor cannot anticipate the payment amounts that will be required under these arrangements for future periods as the Trust’s Bitcoin Holdings are not known until a future date.

Analysis of Price Movements
Investors should understand the relationship between the Index Price (non-GAAP measurement of the price of bitcoin), the Trust’s NAV per Share (non-GAAP measurement of the price of bitcoin affected by non-bitcoin net assets, such as the Sponsor Fee), the Trust’s market price per share, and bitcoin’s principal market price. Investors should also be aware that past movements are not indicators of future movements. Movements may be influenced by various factors, including, but not limited to, government regulation, security breaches experienced by service providers, as well as political and economic uncertainties around the world.
The following chart illustrates the movement in the Index Price, the principal market price, and the Trust’s NAV per Share during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Index Price has ranged from $58,579.39 on June 30, 2026, to $97,568.00 on January 14, 2026. The Sponsor has not observed a material difference between the Index Price and average prices from the constituent bitcoin spot markets individually or as a group.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the 11:59:59 p.m. EST market price of bitcoin, as reported on the Trust’s principal market, has ranged from $59,101.49 on June 30, 2026, to $96,313.99 on January 14, 2026.

Shares trade in the secondary market on the Exchange. Shares may trade in the secondary market at prices that are lower or higher relative to the Trust’s NAV per Share. The amount of the discount or premium in the trading price relative to the Trust’s NAV per Share may be influenced by various factors, including the number of Shareholders who seek to purchase or sell Shares in the secondary market and the liquidity of bitcoin. The following chart sets out the historical closing prices for the Shares as reported by the Exchange and the Trust’s NAV per Share during the six months ended June 30, 2026.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Trust is passively managed. The Trust does not utilize leverage, long-term debt, derivatives or any similar arrangements in seeking to meet its investment objectives or pay its expenses. The Trust does not engage in transactions in foreign currencies which could expose the Trust to foreign currency related market risk. The NAV of the Trust will change as fluctuations occur in the market price of the Trust’s bitcoin holdings. The price of bitcoin is volatile, and market movements of bitcoin are difficult to predict.
