No single entity owns or operates the Horizen Network. Layer-2 blockchains serve to overcome certain perceived hurdles associated with the Ethereum Network.

Some believe that the Ethereum Network is not capable of scaling substantially beyond its current limits due to difficulties in maintaining synchronization among its network of thousands of validators that prohibit higher throughput amounts. Layer-2 blockchains attempt to process transactions among a much smaller set of nodes and then periodically sync to the Ethereum Network according to a set of cryptographic rules that allow potentially thousands of the transactions that occur on the Layer-2 blockchain to be represented in a single transaction on the Ethereum Network. This configuration seeks to increase network speeds across associated Layer-2 blockchains while harnessing the security provided by the Ethereum Network’s large, decentralized validator base. Layer-2 blockchains operate like a smaller Ethereum Network in that they can process transactions and facilitate smart contracts, though at a higher throughput, yet attempt to borrow from the Ethereum Network’s security through various synchronization mechanisms. To achieve these scaling goals, the design of the Base blockchain is centered around “optimistic rollups,” a mechanism by which a smaller set of Layer-2 nodes process users’ transactions and then batches those transactions into a single transaction that “rolls up” to the Ethereum Network. Rather than validating every single transaction like the Ethereum Network, optimistic rollups assume that transactions are valid unless challenged by a validator during a dispute period by submitting a proof of the invalid transactions. If there are no challenges during a dispute period applicable to a batch of transactions, those transactions are finalized to the Ethereum Network and cannot be undone without manipulating the Ethereum Network against protocol rules. Because transactions on many Layer-2 blockchains such as the Base blockchain are submitted as a single transaction on the Ethereum Network, transaction fees associated with Ethereum Network transactions may be allocated among all the Layer-2 blockchain transactions, resulting in much lower cost per transaction than if they were conducted directly on the Ethereum Network. There are no known events that have occurred that require disclosure other than that which has already been disclosed in these notes to the financial statements.

As of the close of business on July 28, 2025, the fair value of ZEN determined in accordance with the Trust’s accounting policy was $8.54 per ZEN.

On July 18, 2025 (the “Announcement Date”), as a result of the announced migration of all ZEN in the main Horizen blockchain to the Base blockchain (the “Migration”) and the planned discontinuation of all ZEN in the Horizen blockchain by July 23, 2025 (the “Migration Date”), the Sponsor, announced that, from and after the Migration Date, it will consider the ERC-20 ZEN tokens on the Base blockchain (the “ZEN Base Tokens”) to be generally accepted ZEN and, therefore, such ZEN Base Tokens should be thereafter considered “ZEN” for the Trust’s purposes.
