Current report

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Exchange market value of each Share decreased from $87.20 per Share to $67.44 per Share. The Share price low and high for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and related change from the Share price on December 31, 2025 was as follows: Shares traded at a low of $63.37 per Share (-27.33%) on February 5, 2026 and a high of $97.37 per Share (+11.66%) on January 14, 2026. The total return for the Trust on a market value basis was -22.66%.

Current report

Bitcoin traded lower during the first quarter of 2026, resulting in negative performance for the Trust. Digital asset markets experienced elevated volatility amid a combination of shifting global risk sentiment, tighter financial conditions, and ongoing uncertainty surrounding macroeconomic policy and regulatory developments. Periods of risk aversion weighed on investor demand for digital assets, contributing to declines in bitcoin prices over the quarter. Together, weaker bitcoin pricing and continued market volatility led to net losses for the Trust during the period.

The Share price low and high for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and related change from the Share price on June 30, 2025 was as follows: Shares traded at a low of $105.20 per Share (-2.10%) on July 1, 2025 and a high of $122.59 per Share (+14.08%) on August 13, 2025. The total return for the Trust on a market value basis was +6.07%.

Previous report

Bitcoin posted positive returns in the third quarter of 2025 as supportive regulatory developments such as the Digital Assets CLARITY Act, and the Anti-CDBC Surveillance State Act progressed, and the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act was passed, which supported digital assets overall. Bitcoin also benefited after President Trump signed an executive order in August that would permit retirement accounts to hold cryptocurrencies. Persistent inflows into spot bitcoin exchange-traded products (“ETPs”) also continued to be a tailwind, even as other assets reacted to policy and geopolitical noise. Finally, the broader macro backdrop lent support, with the restart of the Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed”) easing cycle supporting risk appetite. While there was an increase in redemptions in August and September as several large bitcoin investors took profit near the record highs and shifted to alternatives like Ethereum, bitcoin recovered with seasonally higher demand ahead of October, historically bitcoin’s best performing month.

the Fed easing cycle in September 2024 fueled more bullish sentiment for cryptocurrencies. Although bitcoin has been range-bound, it was generally trending lower since mid-March 2024 on growing economic concerns in the U.S. and reduced risk appetite, however, Fed Chair Powell’s optimistic messaging on the economy provided some relief. Another influencing factor was market expectations for a potential second term as president by former President Trump, especially prior to Vice President Harris joining the presidential race in August. In this respect, former President Trump was generally viewed as more “pro-crypto” and could potentially seek relaxed regulations and more innovation-focused projects.

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2025 COMPARED TO THE PERIOD JANUARY 11, 2024 TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2024

Previous report

Bitcoin posted strong gains in the first three quarters of 2025. After experiencing losses in the first quarter due to economic concerns and a dip in sentiment that led to significant outflows from crypto ETPs, as well as the ByBit hack that temporarily fueled security concerns in crypto, bitcoin rebounded in the second and third quarters. Recovering sentiment, strong institutional demand and ETP inflows, as well as supportive regulatory developments such as the adoption of the GENIUS Act, additional progress in the Senate for the draft CLARITY Act, and the Anti-CDBC Surveillance Act, and the signing of the executive order permitting crypto in retirement accounts were tailwinds for digital assets overall. The commencement of Fed rate easing and the lead up to the U.S. government shutdown also contributed to a supportive backdrop for bitcoin demand.

historically provided upside potential for bitcoin. However, after hitting a record high at the time in March 2024 of $73,000, bitcoin prices trended lower in a range for the balance of the period, waiting for a catalyst to break out. The third quarter was a positive quarter for bitcoin as the kickoff of the Fed easing cycle and market expectations for a potential second term as president by former President Trump fueled the bullish sentiment around cryptocurrencies. The launch of spot Ethereum ETPs in July 2024 may have also been a supportive catalyst.

The Trust applies FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, in the valuation of bitcoin held by the Trust and for financial statement purposes. The fair market value price for bitcoin reflects the price that would be received for bitcoin in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date of bitcoin on its “principal market,” generally, the most advantageous market. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact. The Trust determines its principal market (or in the absence of a principal market the most advantageous market) on a periodic basis to determine which market is its Principal Market for the purpose of calculating fair value for the creation of quarterly and annual financial statements. Issuer-specific events, market trends, bid/asked quotes of brokers and information providers and other data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security’s fair value.

Current wording

In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Trust will hold bitcoin. The Trust values its Shares each Business Day as of 4:00 p.m. ET. The Trust applies FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, in the valuation of bitcoin held by the Trust and for financial statement purposes. The value of bitcoin held by the Trust is determined based on the FMV price for bitcoin, reflecting the execution price of bitcoin on its principal market as determined each day by the Benchmark Provider. The FMV price for bitcoin reflects the price that would be received for bitcoin in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date of bitcoin on its “principal market,” generally, the most advantageous market. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact.

Issuer-specific events, market trends, bid/asked quotes of brokers and information providers and other data may be reviewed in the course of making a good faith determination of a security’s fair value. The Benchmark is designed to provide an estimated fair market value price for bitcoin, based on the execution price of bitcoin on its principal market. In this regard, the Benchmark Provider seeks to identify a “principal market” for bitcoin each day by evaluating eligible bitcoin trading platforms across a variety of different criteria, including the trading platforms’ oversight and governance frameworks, microstructure efficiency, trading volume, data transparency and data integrity.
