ETCO seeks to provide current income by employing a synthetic covered call strategy linked to Ethereum exchange-traded products. The fund focuses on generating income through a combination of call and put options that replicate the price movements of these ETPs. It actively writes out-of-the-money call options with short expirations to generate monthly income, which may limit potential gains if the price of the ETPs rises significantly. ETCO does not invest directly in Ethereum, avoiding exposure to its spot price, and operates through a wholly owned subsidiary in the Cayman Islands to enhance tax efficiencies. The fund also invests in short-term US Treasury securities as collateral for options contracts and may utilize reverse repurchase agreements to manage exposure levels. Monthly distributions are planned, aiming for a structured approach to income generation while maintaining a focus on the performance of Ethereum-linked investments.
