Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance quoted. GDLC, an exchange traded product, is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("40 Act"), and therefore is not subject to the same<br>regulations and protections as 40 Act registered ETFs and mutual funds. GDLC is subject to significant risk and heightened volatility. Cryptocurrency assets are not suitable for an investor who cannot afford the loss of the entire investment. An investment in GDLC is not a direct investment in cryptocurrencies. \*The performance table shows the Fund's performance for the time periods shown from inception through 8/29/2025. GDLC was a private placement until 9/19/2025, when it uplisted to an ETP. The Fund's performance prior to 9/19/2025 is based on market-determined prices on the OTCQX marketplace and on the Fund's performance without an ongoing share creation and redemption program. Effective as of 9/19/2025, the Fund established an ongoing share creation and redemption program and the shares of the Fund were listed to NYSE Arca. Hence, the Fund's returns for periods prior to 9/19/2025 are not directly comparable to, and should not be used to make conclusions in conjunction with, the Fund's performance for periods subsequent to 9/19/2025. Expenses reflected in the performance from inception on 2/01/2018 to 8/29/2025 reflects fees of the Fund when the Fund was structured as a private placement while returns after this date reflect the expenses of the Fund after registration as an exchange traded product as reported in the current prospectus. \*\*Updated as additional returns data becomes available.

Grayscale CoinDesk Crypto 5 ETF ("GDLC") has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the SEC for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents GDLC has filed with the SEC for more complete information about GDLC and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC Web site at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, GDLC or any authorized participant will arrange to send you the prospectus after filing if you request it by calling (833)903-2211 or by contacting Foreside Fund Services, LLC, Three Canal Plaza, Suite 100, Portland, Maine 04101. Foreside Fund Services, LLC is the Marketing Agent and Grayscale Investments Sponsors, LLC is the sponsor of GDLC. NAV per share is not calculated in accordance with GAAP. NAV per share is not intended to be a<br>substitute for the Fund's Principal Market NAV per share calculated in accordance with GAAP. The Fund holds cryptocurrencies; however, an investment in the Fund is not a direct investment in any cryptocurrency. As a single industry fund, the value of the shares may fluctuate more than shares invested in a broader range of industries. There is no guarantee that a market for the shares will be available which will adversely impact the liquidity of the Fund. The Sponsor does not store, hold, or maintain custody of the Fund's digital assets but instead has entered into the Custodian Agreement with a third party to facilitate the security of its digital assets. The Custodian controls and secures the Fund's digital asset accounts, a segregated custody account to store private keys, which allow for the transfer of ownership or control of the digital asset, on the Fund's behalf. If the Custodian resigns or is removed by the Sponsor or otherwise, without replacement, it could trigger early termination of the Fund. Fund History and Returns Performance Prior to 9/19/2025, shares of the Fund were offered only in private placement transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 and were quoted on the OTCQX® Best Market. GDLC did not have an ongoing share creation and redemption program. Effective as of the open of business on 9/19/2025, the shares of the Fund were listed to NYSE Arca as an exchange-traded product, GDLC established an ongoing share creation and redemption program and the shares are being offered on a registered basis pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3. Prior to 9/19/2025, the Fund did not meet its investment objective and its shares traded at both premiums and discounts to such value, which at times were substantial, in part due to the lack of an ongoing redemption program. Furthermore, the Fund's performance prior to 9/19/2025 is based on market-determined prices on the OTCQX, while the Fund's performance following such date is based on market-determined prices on NYSE Arca. As a result, the Fund's historical data prior to 9/19/2025 is not directly comparable to, and should not be used to make conclusions in conjunction with, the Fund's performance following that date. COINDESK® and the Fund's applicable reference rate (the "Index") are trade or service marks of CoinDesk Indices, Inc. (with its affiliates, including CC Data Limited, "CDI"), and/or its licensors.
