Investment Objective

Grayscale Ethereum Classic Trust (the "Trust") is one of the first investment vehicles that enables investors to gain exposure to the token underlying the Ethereum Classic platform ("ETC") in the form of a security while avoiding the challenges of buying, storing, and safekeeping ETC, directly.

Shares of the Trust (based on ETC per Share as indicated below) are designed to track the ETC market price, less fees and expenses. Ethereum Classic is a digital asset that is created and transmitted through the operations of the peer-to-peer Ethereum Classic Network, a decentralized network of computers that operates on cryptographic protocols. The Ethereum Classic Network allows people to exchange tokens of value, called Ethereum Classic, which are recorded on a public transaction ledger known as a blockchain.

To date, the Product has not met its investment objective and the Shares of the Product quoted on OTC Markets Group has not reflected the value of digital assets held by the Product, less the Product’s expenses and other liabilities, but instead have traded at both premiums and discounts to such value, with variations that have at times been substantial.

Overview

Eligible shares are quoted on the OTC Markets Group under the Alternative Reporting Standards. Investors can buy and sell shares through most traditional brokerage accounts at prices dictated by the market.

Prior to September 1, 2026, the Trust tracked the CoinDesk Ethereum Classic Price Index, a U.S. dollar-denominated composite reference rate for ETC.
