Grayscale® DeFi Fund was created for investors seeking exposure to decentralized finance through a familiar investment vehicle. Grayscale® DeFi Fund holds digital assets that make up the CoinDesk DeFi Select Index. These digital assets are drawn from the universe of investable digital assets native to decentralized finance or DeFi. By removing centralized third-party intermediaries such as centralized clearing parties, custodians, banks or transfer agents, DeFi protocols provide decentralized access to financial services including digital asset borrowing, lending, custody, trading, derivatives, asset management and insurance. The Fund’s shares are among the first securities solely invested in, and deriving value from, a basket of DeFi assets. The Fund has no current plans to engage in on-chain activities such as staking.
Grayscale Investments, LLC (“Grayscale”) is the world’s largest digital currency asset manager. Through its family of investment products, Grayscale provides access and exposure to the digital currency asset class in the form of a security without the challenges of buying, storing, and safekeeping digital currencies directly. With a proven track record, Grayscale’s products operate within the existing regulatory framework, creating exposure for investors in a secure and compliant manner. Grayscale products are distributed by Grayscale Securities, LLC. (Member FINRA/SIPC, MSRB Registered). Certain Grayscale products may be accessed in brokerage accounts and in certain tax-advantaged accounts (e.g. IRAs, Self-Directed IRAs

Digital currencies serve multiple roles in a diversified portfolio:
  • As an inflation hedge and store of value in a landscape of currency debasement and decreasing purchasing power 
  • As an uncorrelated return asset to provide diversification relative to stocks, bonds, commodities, currencies, and real estate.
  • As an investment in emerging technology with growth exposure, as digital assets shape the future of finance, computing, social networks, and other industries.
Buying and holding digital assets directly means you must set up a digital wallet where you manually buy and store your digital assets. DEFG offers investors an easy way to gain diversified exposure to decentralized finance without the time and effort of storing and safekeeping them individually. Just as with any other retail investment, investors may quickly and easily buy and sell shares of DEFG. Certain Grayscale products may be accessed in brokerage accounts and in certain tax-advantaged accounts (e.g. IRAs, Self-Directed IRAs)
Digital currencies may provide diversification and non-correlation benefits. With the right-sized allocation, digital currency risks may be mitigated relative to potential gains, potentially providing returns while also helping to strengthen an investor’s overall risk/return profile.

Investments in DEFG are speculative investments that involve high degrees of risk, including a partial or total loss of invested funds. Grayscale products are not suitable for any investor that cannot afford the loss of the entire investment. Because DEFG does not currently operate a redemption program, there can be no assurance that the value of the Shares will reflect the value of DEFG’s assets, less DEFG’s expenses and other liabilities.

Each of Grayscale’s products allow investors to gain exposure to digital assets they are most interested in – you can find our entire list of single-asset and diversified products here.
