Note 3. Trust Expenses and Other Agreements
The Trust pays the Sponsor a unified fee (the “Sponsor
Fee”) of
The Trustee fee is paid by the Sponsor and is not a separate expense of the Trust.
The Trust holds its bitcoin at the Bitcoin Custodian and may also hold bitcoin at the Additional Bitcoin Custodian, both of which are regulated third-party custodians that carry insurance (in the case of the Additional Bitcoin Custodian, such insurance is carried by its parent, Coinbase Inc., and is intended to cover the loss of client assets held by Coinbase Inc. and its subsidiaries, including the Additional Bitcoin Custodian) and are responsible for safekeeping of bitcoin owned by the Trust and holding private keys that provide access to the bitcoin in the Trust’s bitcoin account.
State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as the Trust’s administrator, transfer agent and cash custodian.
Note 4. Related Parties
The Sponsor is considered to be a related party to the Trust.
MarketVector Indexes GmbH is the index sponsor and index administrator for the MarketVector Bitcoin Benchmark Rate, which is used by the Trust to determine its NAV. MarketVector Indexes GmbH is an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of VanEck.
Van Eck Securities Corporation, a marketing agent to the Trust, is a wholly owned-subsidiary of VanEck.
VanEck was the initial seed investor (“Seed Capital
Investor”) on December 21, 2023. On January 4, 2024, the Seed Capital Investor purchased additional shares (see Note 5). As of September

created or redeemed determined as of 4:00 p.m. EST on the day the order to create or redeem baskets is properly received. For an order to create baskets, an authorized participant will deliver cash to the Trust’s account at the cash custodian, which the Sponsor will then use to purchase bitcoin from a liquidity provider chosen by the Sponsor. For an order to redeem baskets, the Sponsor will arrange for the bitcoin represented by the basket to be sold to a liquidity provider chosen by the Sponsor and the cash proceeds distributed from the Trust’s account at the cash custodian to the authorized participant in exchange for their Shares. Only authorized participants may place orders to create and redeem baskets through the transfer agent. The transfer agent will coordinate with the Trust’s Bitcoin Custodians to facilitate settlement of the Shares and bitcoin.

Note 6. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these agreements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, the Sponsor believes the risk of loss under these arrangements to be remote.
Note 7. Concentration Risk
Substantially all of the Trust’s assets are holdings of bitcoin, which creates a concentration risk associated with fluctuations in the value of bitcoin due to a number of factors. Accordingly, a decline in the value of bitcoin will have an adverse effect on the value of the Shares of the Trust. Factors that may have the effect of causing a decline in the value of bitcoin include high volatility, which could have a negative impact on the performance of the Trust. Bitcoin platforms are relatively new and may be unregulated or may be subject to regulation in a relevant jurisdiction, but may not be complying, and therefore, may be more exposed to fraud and security breaches than established, regulated exchanges for other financial assets or instruments, which could have a negative impact on the performance of the Trust. The value of the Shares depends on the development and acceptance of the Bitcoin network. The slowing or stopping of the development or acceptance of the Bitcoin network may adversely affect an investment in the Trust. The price of bitcoin on the bitcoin market has exhibited periods of extreme volatility. Digital assets such as bitcoin were only introduced within the past few decades, and the medium-to-long term value of the Shares is subject to a number of factors relating to the capabilities and development of block-chain technologies and to the fundamental investment characteristics of digital assets that are uncertain and difficult to evaluate. The Trust is subject to risks due to its concentration of investments in a single asset class. Possible illiquid markets may exacerbate losses or increase the variability between the Trust’s NAV and its market price. The amount of bitcoin represented by the Shares may decline over time.
Future and current regulations by a United States or foreign government or quasi-governmental agency could have an adverse effect on an investment in the Trust. Shareholders do not have the protections associated with ownership of Shares in an investment company registered under the 1940 Act or the protections afforded by the Commodity Exchange Act. Future legal or regulatory developments may negatively affect the value of bitcoin or require the Trust or the Sponsor to become registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or Commodity Futures Trading Commission, which may cause the Trust to liquidate.
The Exchange on which the Shares are listed may halt trading in the Trust’s Shares, which would adversely impact a Shareholder’s ability to sell Shares. The market infrastructure of the bitcoin spot market could result in the absence of active authorized participants able to support the trading activity of the Trust.

Shareholders that are not authorized participants may only purchase or sell their Shares in secondary trading markets, and the conditions associated with trading in secondary markets may adversely affect Shareholders’ investment in the Shares.

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 with this report. 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,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. All statements (other than statements of historical fact) included in this report that address activities, events or developments that may occur in the future, including such matters as changes in commodity prices and market conditions (for bitcoin and the Shares), the operations of the Trust, the plans of the Sponsor and references to the Trust’s future success and other similar matters are forward-looking statements. 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 is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including the special considerations discussed in this Report, 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. Consequently, all the forward-looking statements made in this report are qualified by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments the Sponsor anticipates will be realized or, even if substantially realized, will result in the expected consequences to, or have the expected effects on, the Trust’s operations or the value of the Shares issued by the Trust. Moreover, neither the Sponsor nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the forward-looking statements. Neither the Trust nor the Sponsor undertakes an obligation to publicly update or conform to actual results any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.
Introduction
The Trust is a Delaware statutory trust. The Trust does not have directors, officers or employees. The creation and operation of the Trust has been arranged by the Sponsor. The Trust is administered by the Trust Agreement, among the Sponsor, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee. The Trust is managed and controlled by the Sponsor, a wholly-owned subsidiary of VanEck. The Sponsor is not governed by a board of directors.
The Trust’s investment objective is to reflect the performance of bitcoin less the operating expenses of the Trust. The Trust is a passive investment vehicle that does not seek to pursue any investment strategy beyond tracking the price of bitcoin. The Trust does not engage in any activities designed to obtain a profit from, or ameliorate losses caused by, changes in the price of bitcoin.
The Trust issues and redeems Shares only in aggregations of 25,000 Shares, a Basket, or integral multiples thereof, and only in transactions with Authorized Participants.
Shares of the Trust trade on the Exchange under the ticker symbol “HODL.”
Computation of Net Asset Value
The Trust’s NAV is calculated based on the Trust’s net asset holdings as reconciled to the Bitcoin Custodians’ accounts on a market approach, determined on a daily basis in accordance with the MarketVectorTM Bitcoin Benchmark Rate price at 4:00 p.m. EST. The Trust’s NAV per Share is calculated by taking the current market value of its total assets, subtracting any liabilities, and then dividing that total by the total number of outstanding Shares. The Trust Agreement gives the Sponsor the exclusive authority to determine the Trust’s NAV and the Trust’s NAV per Share, which it has delegated to the Administrator.
| 10 |
Liquidity
The Trust is not aware of any trends, demands, conditions or events that are reasonably likely to result in material changes to its liquidity needs. In exchange for a fee, the Sponsor has agreed to assume most of the expenses incurred by the Trust. As a result, the only ordinary expense of the Trust during the period covered by this report was the Sponsor’s Fee. The Trust’s only source of liquidity is its sales of bitcoin.
Significant Accounting Policies
In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amount of revenue and expenses reported during the period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. A description of the valuation of bitcoin, a critical accounting policy that the Trust believes is important to understanding its results of operations and financial position, is provided in the section entitled “Computation of Net Asset Value” above. In addition, please refer to Note 2 to the Financial Statements included in this report for further discussion of the Trust’s accounting policies.
Results of Operations
The Quarter Ended September 30, 2024
The Trust’s NAV increased from $614,747,718 at June 30, 2024 to $759,376,653 at September 30, 2024, a 24% increase. The increase in the Trust’s net asset value resulted primarily from the number of outstanding shares increasing from 8,775,000 Shares at June 30, 2024 to 10,600,000 Shares at September 30, 2024. This is the net result of 3,150,000 Shares (126 Baskets) being created and 1,325,000 Shares (53 Baskets) being redeemed during the period. In addition, the price of bitcoin grew 2.26% from $61,926 at June 30, 2024 to $63,326 at September 30, 2024.
The 2.26% increase in the NAV per Share from $70.06 at June 30, 2024 to $71.64 at September 30, 2024 is directly related to the 2.26% increase in the price of bitcoin during this period.
The NAV per Share of $76.75 on July 22, 2024, was the highest during the quarter, compared with a low during the quarter of $60.09 on August 5, 2024.
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, was $15,911,468 resulting from a net unrealized appreciation on investment in bitcoin of $11,414,566, a net realized gain of $4,496,902 on bitcoin sold for the redemption of Shares and a net investment income of $0. The Trust had no expenses during the quarter as they were all waived by the Sponsor.
The Nine-Month Period Ended September 30, 2024
The Trust’s net asset value increased from $100,000 at December 31, 2023 to $759,376,653 at September 30, 2024, a 759,277% increase. The increase in the Trust’s net asset value resulted primarily from an increase in the number of outstanding shares, which increased from 2,000 Shares at December 31, 2023 to 10,600,000 Shares at September 30, 2024. This is the net result of 12,900,000 Shares (438 Baskets) being created and 2,302,000 Shares (90 Baskets) being redeemed during the period, and an increase in the price of bitcoin, which grew 43.33% from $44,182 at January 4, 2024 to $63,326 at September 30, 2024.
The 43.28% increase in the NAV per Share from $50.00 at December 31, 2023 to $71.64 at September 30, 2024 is directly related to the 43.33% increase in the price of bitcoin during this period.
The NAV per Share of $82.73 on March 13, 2024, was the highest during the period, compared with a low during the period of $44.40 on January 23, 2024.
Net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, was $38,425,905, resulting from an net unrealized appreciation on investment in bitcoin of $24,957,145, a net realized gain of $13,521,354 on bitcoin sold for the redemption of Shares, a net realized gain of $10,977 from bitcoin sold to pay expenses during the nine-month period, and a net investment loss of $63,571. Other than the Sponsor Fee of $63,571, the Trust had no other expenses during the nine-month period.
