Executive Summary
Cryptex Digital Market Cap ETF (BAGZ) filed Pre-Effective Amendment No. 3 to its S-1 registration statement on August 24, 2026, to register an indeterminate amount of shares for a continuous offering. The Fund is a Cayman Islands ETF that will passively track the Cryptex Digital Market Cap Index, a tier-stratified, market-cap-weighted index of crypto assets, with a 0.90% annual sponsor fee and up to 33% of assets staked for yield. The filing updates the prospectus with detailed constituent weightings, risk factors, and service provider agreements, but does not include a proposed price range or financial statements beyond a seed capital placeholder, making this a routine pre-effective amendment with no new material financial data to drive a directional call.

- The annual sponsor fee is 0.90% of Crypto Assets Holdings, paid in crypto assets or cash.

Risk Factors
- The Fund's performance may significantly deviate from the Index due to the additional screens and reweighting methodology.
- The Fund's inclusion of CTX at a 6.5% minimum weight floor creates a material conflict of interest, as the Sponsor created and maintains CTX.
- Staking activities introduce slashing risk and liquidity constraints, with up to 33% of assets potentially locked during unbonding periods.
- The Fund relies on BitGo Prime as its sole trading counterparty, creating single-point-of-failure risk.
- Crypto asset markets are highly volatile and largely unregulated, with the Fund's underlying assets showing 52-week drawdowns of 49% to 86%.
