    The Trust holds only ether and cash, exposing investors to extreme volatility and lack of diversification in digital assets. The Trust is passively managed, cannot engage in staking, and suffers a declining asset value per share from the Sponsor Fee. Trading and index risks, regulatory uncertainties, and lack of in-kind creation and redemption further threaten share value.
