Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On September 16, 2022 (the “Notice Date”), Grayscale Investments, LLC, the manager (the “Manager”) of Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund, LLC (the “Fund”), announced that it had declared a distribution and established a record date for the distribution of rights to the ETH Proof of Work tokens (“ETHPoW”) received by the Fund, as a result of a fork in the Ethereum blockchain on September 15, 2022 to holders of record (“Record Date Shareholders”) of the Fund’s equal, fractional, undivided interests in the profits, losses, distributions, capital and assets of, and ownership of the Fund (the “Shares”) as of the close of business on September 26, 2022 (the “Record Date”). The ETHPoW that may be acquired through such rights is referred to as a “right to the Forked Asset” and any such ETHPoW acquired through such a right to the Forked Asset is referred to as the “Forked Asset”.
On the Record Date, pursuant to the terms of the LLC Agreement governing the Fund, the Fund will appoint Grayscale Investments, LLC as agent (in this capacity, the “Agent”) on behalf of the Record Date Shareholders and transfer rights to the Forked Assets held by the Fund to the Agent on behalf of the Record Date Shareholders. The Fund currently holds rights to approximately 40,653.24325763 tokens of the Forked Asset, or approximately 0.00256206 ETHPoW tokens per Share based on 15,867,400 Shares of the Fund outstanding.
The Agent will look to acquire the Forked Assets as soon as practicable after receipt of the rights to the Forked Assets and sell the Forked Assets over a period of time, currently not expected to exceed 180 days, on behalf of the Record Date Shareholders. In case the Agent determines a market for the Forked Asset does not develop or the cost incurred by the Agent in connection with the sale of the Forked Assets is likely to be greater than the aggregate sale value, the Agent will abandon the Forked Assets.
In the event that the Agent is able to sell the Forked Assets, the Agent will remit the cash proceeds from the sales, net of any administrative and other reasonable expenses incurred by the Agent in its capacity as agent of the Record Date Shareholders and not in its capacity as Manager of the Fund, ratably to Record Date Shareholders. The Agent will announce one or more dates for remittance of such net cash proceeds as well as the right to remit any net cash proceeds from sales of the Record Date Shareholders’ Forked Assets prior to the sale of all tokens of the Forked Asset, in more than one remittance. The Agent may use an affiliated dealer, including Genesis Global Trading, Inc., to facilitate the sale of the Forked Assets. Any such affiliated dealer would expect to receive a customary markup or other customary compensation for its services.
The trading venues for the Forked Asset are not broadly established and there is uncertainty as to whether digital asset custodians will support the Forked Asset or if trading markets with meaningful liquidity will develop. In the event digital asset custodians do support the Forked Asset and trading markets do develop it is expected that there will be widely fluctuating values for the Forked Asset for some time. As a result of this uncertainty and the potential for significant volatility in prices for the Forked Asset, it is not possible to predict the value of the Forked Asset as of the Record Date or the value, if any, that the Agent will be able to realize from sales of the Forked Assets after the Record Date. Therefore, if the Agent is able to sell the Forked Assets at all, there can be no assurance as to the price or prices for the Forked Asset that may be realized, and the value of the Forked Asset may increase or decrease after any sale of the Forked Assets by the Agent.
Record Date Shareholders are advised to consult with their advisors as to the tax consequences of the foregoing.
