Hashdex is pursuing approval to present a hybrid blend of spot and future contracts Ethereum ETF, with an application submitted by the Nasdaq stock exchange to the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
The filing clarifies that, owing to the application’s nature, the share price may deviate from Ether’s spot price.
Hashdex Ethereum ETF Aims To Reduce RisksAccording to a September 11 filing, the Hashdex Nasdaq Ethereum ETF has been put forth to the SEC for approval. This will offer investors exposure to both Ethereum spot and futures contracts. However, it notes that this endeavor could encounter price fluctuations:
“Because the Fund’s investment objective is to track the price of the Benchmark by investing in Ether and Ether Futures Contracts, changes in the price of the Shares may vary from changes in the spot price of Ether.”

“Instead of holding 100% spot Ether, which could make it more susceptible to price manipulation in the spot market, the Fund will hold a mix of Spot Ether, Ether Futures Contracts, and cash,” the filing states.
