Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks 21Shares Ethereum Staking ETF names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Mar 31, 2026: 78 risks under these headings, as written.3
- Risks Associated with Ether and the Ethereum Network
- Ether is a relatively new technological innovation with a limited operating history.
- Ether and Ethereum generally.
- Moving from Proof-of-Work (PoW) to Proof-of-Stake (PoS) Consensus Mechanism.
- Staking introduces a risk of loss of ether, which could adversely affect the value of the Shares.
- Staked ether tokens will be inaccessible for a variable period of time, determined by a range of factors, which could result in certain liquidity risk to the Trust.
- The Trust is dependent on third parties to effectively execute the Trust’s Staking Activities.
- The Trust will stake its ether only if it may do so without undue legal or regulatory risk, such as, without limitation, the risk of jeopardizing the Trust’s ability to qualify as a grantor trust for tax purposes, which could harm the value of the Shares.
- The Trust may be negatively impacted by Staking Activities.
- The Staking Provider may not optimally execute the staking activities.
- The Trust may vary the amount of ether to be staked and the rewards received may accordingly change from time to time.
- The scheduled creation of newly minted ether and their subsequent sale may cause the price of ether to decline, which could negatively affect an investment in the Trust.
The other 67 risks
- Limits on ether supply.
- The prevailing level of transaction fees may adversely affect the usage of the Ethereum network.
- The trading prices of many digital assets, including ether, have experienced extreme volatility in recent periods and may continue to do so. Extreme volatility in the future, including further declines in the trading prices of ether, could have a material adverse effect on the value of the Shares and the Shares could lose all or substantially all of their value.
- Spot markets on which ether trades are relatively new and largely unregulated.
- The use of cash creations and redemptions, as opposed to in-kind creations and redemptions, may adversely affect the arbitrage transactions by Authorized Participants intended to keep the price of the Shares closely linked to the price of ether and, as a result, the price of the Shares may fall or otherwise diverge from NAV.
- Authorized Participants may act in the same or similar capacity for other competing products.
- Spot markets may be exposed to security breaches.
- Spot markets may be exposed to fraud and market manipulation.
- Spot markets may be exposed to wash trading.
- Spot markets may be exposed to front-running.
- The market value of ether is subject to momentum pricing.
- A decline in the adoption of ether or the Ethereum network could negatively impact the Trust.
- Irrevocable nature of blockchain-recorded transactions.
- The loss or destruction of a private key required to access ether may be irreversible.
- Loss of a critical banking relationship for, or the failure of a bank used by, the Trust or the Prime Broker could adversely impact the Trust’s ability to create or redeem Baskets, or could cause losses to the Trust.
- If any of the Custodial Services Agreements or the Prime Broker Agreement are terminated or the Ether Custodians or the Prime Broker fail to provide services as required, the Trustee may need to find and appoint a replacement custodian or prime broker, which could pose a challenge to the safekeeping of the Trust’s ether, and the Trust’s ability to continue to operate may be adversely affected.
- The Ether Custodians and the Prime Broker may act in the same or similar capacity for other competing products.
- The Prime Broker routes orders through Connected Trading Venues in connection with trading services under the Prime Broker Agreement. The loss or failure of any such Connected Trading Venues may adversely affect the Prime Broker’s business and cause losses for the Trust.
- A disruption of the Internet may affect Ethereum operations, which may adversely affect the Ethereum industry and an investment in the Trust.
- Potential changes to the Ethereum network’s protocols and software could, if accepted and authorized by the Ethereum network community, adversely affect an investment in the Trust.
- The open-source structure of the Ethereum network protocol means that the core developers and other contributors are generally not directly compensated for their contributions in maintaining and developing the Ethereum network protocol. A failure to properly monitor and upgrade the Ethereum network protocol could damage the Ethereum network and an investment in the Trust.
- Decentralized governance of the Ethereum network could have a negative impact on the performance of the Trust.
- Anonymity and illicit financing risk.
- The actual or perceived use of ether and other digital assets in illicit transactions may adversely affect the ether industry and an investment in the Trust.
- The inability to recognize the economic benefit of a “fork” or an “airdrop” could adversely impact an investment in the Trust.
- Network Forks.
- Ethereum is subject to cybersecurity risks, which could adversely affect an investment in the Trust or the ability of the Trust to operate.
- Liquid staking applications pose risks associated with concentration of control.
- A temporary or permanent “fork” could adversely affect the value of the Shares.
- If validators expend less processing power on the Ethereum network, it could increase the likelihood of a malicious actor obtaining control.
- Cancer nodes.
- Double-spending risks.
- Flaws in source code.
- Mathematical or technological advances could undermine the Ethereum network’s consensus mechanism.
- Proof-of-stake blockchains are a relatively recent innovation, and have not been subject to as widespread use or adoption over as long of a period of time as traditional proof-of-work blockchains.
- Validators may suffer losses due to staking, which could make the Ethereum network less attractive.
- The Sponsor’s receipt of a portion of staking rewards may create conflicts of interest.
- The Ethereum network faces scaling challenges and efforts to increase the volume of transactions may not be successful.
- Smart contracts are new and their ongoing development and operation may result in problems or be subject to errors or hacks, which could reduce the demand for ether or cause a wider loss of confidence in the Ethereum network, either of which could have an adverse impact on the value of ether.
- New competing digital assets may pose a challenge to ether’s current market position, resulting in a reduction in demand for ether, which could have a negative impact on the price of ether and may have a negative impact on the performance of the Trust.
- Competition from central bank digital currencies (“CBDCs”) could adversely affect the value of ether and other digital assets.
- Prices of ether may be affected due to stablecoins, the activities of stablecoin issuers and their regulatory treatment.
- Operational cost may exceed the award for validating transaction fees, and increased transaction fees may adversely affect the usage of the Ethereum network.
- Electricity usage.
- If the digital asset award or transaction fees for recording transactions on the Ethereum network are not sufficiently high to incentivize validators, or if certain jurisdictions continue to limit or otherwise regulate validating activities, validators may cease expanding validating power or demand high transaction fees, which could negatively impact the value of ether and the value of the Shares.
- Validators may cease to record transactions as a result of low transaction fees, which may adversely affect the usage of the Ethereum network.
- Large-Scale Sales or Distributions.
- Congestion or delay in the Ethereum network may delay purchases or sales of ether by the Trust.
- Risks Associated with Investing in the Trust
- Investment Related Risks.
- The NAV or the Principal Market NAV may not always correspond to the market price of ether.
- Deviations between the Trust’s NAV and NAV per Share versus the Trust’s Principal Market NAV and Principal Market NAV per Share may occur.
- If the process of creation and redemption of Baskets encounters any unanticipated difficulties, the possibility for arbitrage transactions by Authorized Participants intended to keep the price of the Shares closely linked to the price of ether may not exist and, as a result, the price of the Shares may fall or otherwise diverge from NAV.
- Owning Shares is different than directly owning ether.
- Index tracking risk.
- Liquidity risk.
- Counterparty risk.
- The value of the Shares may be influenced by a variety of factors unrelated to the value of ether.
- The Administrator is solely responsible for determining the value of the Trust’s ether, the Trust’s NAV and the Trust’s Principal Market NAV. The value of the Shares may experience an adverse effect in the event of any errors, discontinuance or changes in such valuation calculations.
- Ether Counterparties’ buying and selling activity associated with the creation and redemption of Baskets may adversely affect an investment in the Shares.
- The inability of Ether Counterparties to hedge their ether exposure may adversely affect the liquidity of Shares and the value of an investment in the Shares.
- Arbitrage transactions intended to keep the price of Shares closely linked to the price of ether may be problematic if the process for the creation and redemption of Baskets encounters difficulties, which may adversely affect an investment in the Shares.
- Security threats and cyber-attacks could result in the halting of Trust operations and a loss of Trust assets or damage to the reputation of the Trust, each of which could result in a reduction in the price of the Shares.
- The Ether Custodians could become insolvent.
- The Trust is subject to risks due to its concentration of investments in a single asset.
- A lack of active trading markets for the Shares may result in losses on Shareholders’ investments at the time of disposition of Shares.
- Several factors may affect the Trust’s ability to achieve its investment objective on a consistent basis.
- The amount of ether represented by the Shares will decline over time.
Legal proceedings
From time to time, the Trust may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. As of December 31, 2025, the Trust was not subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, are any material legal proceeding threatened against the Trust.
