According to the filing, the fund seeks upside exposure to the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) or similar bitcoin exposure up to an approximate limit, while seeking a level of downside protection, mainly by buying and selling bitcoin call options and holding fixed-income investments. The prospectus is incomplete, the fee is not set, and the shares may not be sold until the registration becomes effective.
