The ETF is set up with a dual-access bare trust structure, which avoids triggering capital gains taxes. This allows long-term Ethereum holders to move their assets into the ETF without losing ownership.
IETH will mirror the CME CF Ether-Dollar Reference Rate for the Asia Pacific region. The management fee is set at 0.50%, with a discounted rate of 0.21% for accredited advisers.
The custody of IETH will be managed by BitGo and Gemini, while State Street Australia will take care of the fund’s administration.
