Foreside Fund Services, LLC is the Marketing Agent and Grayscale Investments Sponsors, LLC (“Grayscale”) is the sponsor of GDLC. Grayscale is not registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and the Fund is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Fund is subject to the rules and regulations of the Securities Act of 1933.

There is no guarantee that a market for the shares will be available which will adversely impact the liquidity of the Fund. The value of the Fund relates directly to the value of the underlying digital assets, the value of which may be highly volatile and subject to fluctuations due to a number of factors.

The Fund relies on third party service providers to perform certain functions essential to the affairs of the funds and the replacement of such service providers could pose a challenge to the safekeeping of the digital asset and to the operations of the Fund.

Digital Asset Risk Disclosures

Extreme volatility of trading prices that many digital assets have experienced in recent periods and may continue to experience, could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Fund and the shares could lose all or substantially all of their value.

Digital assets represent a new and rapidly evolving industry. The value of the Fund depends on the acceptance of the digital assets, the capabilities and development of blockchain technologies and the fundamental investment characteristics of the digital asset.

Digital asset networks are developed by a diverse set of contributors and the perception that certain high-profile contributors will no longer contribute to the network could have an adverse effect on the market price of the related digital asset.

Digital assets may have concentrated ownership and large sales or distributions by holders of such digital assets could have an adverse effect on the market price of such digital assets.

The CoinDesk 5 Index measures the performance of the largest and most liquid five digital assets included in the CoinDesk 20 Index. Formerly called the CoinDesk Large Cap Select Index, CoinDesk 5 reflects Bitcoin dominance in the digital asset class, while also providing exposure to Ether and other leading cryptocurrencies. Constituents are weighted by market capitalization and rebalanced quarterly.

The Sponsor does not store, hold, or maintain custody of the Fund’s digital assets but instead has entered into the Custodian Agreement with a third party to facilitate the security of its digital assets. The Custodian controls and secures the Fund’s digital asset accounts, a segregated custody account to store private keys, which allow for the transfer of ownership or control of the digital asset, on the Fund’s behalf. If the Custodian resigns or is removed by the Sponsor or otherwise, without replacement, it could trigger early termination of the Fund.
