The 21Shares Dogecoin ETF (the “Trust”) is a Maryland statutory trust, formed on April 1, 2025, pursuant to the Maryland Statutory Trust Act (“MSTA”). The Trust operates pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated Trust Agreement (the “Trust Agreement”). Wilmington Trust, N.A., a Maryland trust company, is the trustee of the Trust (the “Trustee”). On April 7, 2025, the Trust’s sponsor, 21Shares US LLC (the “Sponsor”) caused a Certificate of Amendment to the Trust’s Certificate of Trust to be filed with the Secretary of the State of Maryland in order to change the name of the Trust from “Jura Pentium Trust 10” to “21Shares Dogecoin ETF”. The Trust is managed and controlled by the Sponsor. The Sponsor is a limited liability company formed in the state of Delaware on June 16, 2021, and is a wholly owned subsidiary of 21co Holdings Limited. The ultimate parent company of 21co Holdings Limited is FalconX Holdings Limited (“FalconX”). Coinbase Custody Trust Company, LLC (“Coinbase”), Anchorage Digital Bank N.A. (“Anchorage”), and BitGo Bank & Trust, N.A. (“BitGo” and together with Coinbase and Anchorage, as the context may require, the “Dogecoin Custodians”, “Custodians” and each a “Dogecoin Custodian”) are the custodians for the Trust and hold all of the Trust’s Dogecoin tokens, the native digital asset of the Dogecoin blockchain (“Dogecoin”), on the Trust’s behalf. The transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), the administrator for the Trust (the “Administrator”), and the cash custodian (the “Cash Custodian”), is Bank of New York Mellon.

 

The Trust is an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”) that issues common shares of beneficial interest (the “Shares”) representing fractional undivided beneficial interests in its net assets that trade on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (the “Exchange”). The Shares are listed for trading on the Exchange under the ticker symbol “TDOG”.

 

The Trust’s investment objective is to seek to track the performance of Dogecoin as measured by the performance of the CF Dogecoin-Dollar US Settlement Price Index (the “Pricing Benchmark”), adjusted for the Trust’s expenses and other liabilities. CF Benchmarks Ltd. is the administrator for the Pricing Benchmark (the “Pricing Benchmark Provider”). The Pricing Benchmark is designed to reflect the performance of Dogecoin in U.S. dollars. In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Trust holds Dogecoin at its Custodians and the Administrator values the Shares daily based on the Pricing Benchmark. On June 30, 2026, the Sponsor provided notice to the Pricing Benchmark Provider of the termination, effective August 31, 2026, of the licensing agreement between the Sponsor and the Pricing Benchmark Provider relating to the use of the Pricing Benchmark. The Sponsor intends to enter into a licensing agreement with FTSE International Limited (“FTSE”) on or about August 24, 2026, whereby FTSE will provide each of the Sponsor, the Trust, and their affiliates a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sub-licensable, worldwide license to access, view and use FTSE index data to develop, create, calculate, settle, maintain or support and market the Trust. Accordingly, the change in pricing benchmark provider is not expected to have a material impact on the Trust's net asset value, the fair value measurement of the Trust's Dogecoin, or the Trust's results of operations, and does not represent a change in accounting principle. The change will be applied prospectively from the date the successor benchmark becomes effective.

 

The Trust is an “emerging growth company” as that term is used in the Securities Act, and, as such, the Trust may elect to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.

 

On September 17, 2025, the Sponsor, in its capacity as the seed capital investor (the “Seed Capital Investor”), subject to conditions, purchased two Shares at a per-Share price of $50.00 (the “Initial Seed Shares”). Total proceeds to the Trust from the sale of the Initial Seed Shares were $100. Delivery of the Initial Seed Shares was made on September 17, 2025. On October 15, 2025, the Sponsor redeemed the Initial Seed Shares for $100.

 

On January 21, 2026 (the “Seed Capital Purchase Date”), the Sponsor, in its capacity as Seed Capital Investor, purchased the initial Baskets comprising 60,000 Shares (the “Seed Creation Baskets”) at a per-share price of $25.66. In its capacity as the Seed Capital Investor, the Sponsor has acted as a statutory underwriter in connection with such purchase. The total proceeds to the Trust from the sale of the Seed Creation Baskets were $1,539,463. On January 21, 2026, the Trust purchased Dogecoin with the proceeds of the Seed Creation Baskets by transacting with a designated third party, who may be an Authorized Participant or an affiliate of an Authorized Participant, and with whom the Sponsor has entered into an agreement on behalf of the Trust (each such third party, a “Dogecoin Counterparty”) to acquire Dogecoin on behalf of the Trust in exchange for cash provided by the Sponsor in its capacity as Seed Capital Investor. All Dogecoin acquired in connection with the Seed Creation Baskets is held by one or more of the Dogecoin Custodians.

 

The statements of assets and liabilities and schedule of investment on June 30, 2026, and the statements of operations, and changes in net assets for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 have been prepared on behalf of the Trust and are unaudited.

In addition, interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full-year period.
