       Risk Factors, page 6

   1.                                                   Please include a
separately captioned risk factor addressing the risk that substantial sales
                                                        or dispositions by a
large Unitholder could negatively impact the price of your Units in the
                                                        secondary market.
Include a discussion of whether Celsius Network Ltd. sold or disposed
                                                        of a substantial number
of your Units this year and any negative impact on the price of
                                                        your Units in the
secondary market. We note that in your amended Form 10 filed June 10,
                                                        2022 you listed Celsius
Network Ltd. as beneficially owning 35.16% of your Units, but
                                                        you do not list Celsius
Network Ltd. as a principal Unitholder in the most recent
                                                        amendment. If you
believe that Unitholders will not be subject to such risk or that sales or
                                                        dispositions by Celsius
Network Ltd. did not have a negative impact on the price of your
                                                        Units, please explain
in your response letter.

program for
Unitholders..., page 19

2.       We note your revised disclosure on pages 19 and 66 in response to
comment 4. Please
         expand your added risk factor on page 19 to describe the effect on
investors who purchase
         Units in the secondary market that are trading at a substantial
premium over or a
         substantial discount to the NAV per Unit, discussing, for example, the
impact on
         investors if, after they purchase Units, the premium decreases or
discount increases. Also
         state, if true, that at times when the Units trade at a substantial
premium to the NAV per
         Unit, investors who purchase Units on OTCQX may pay substantially more
for their Units
         than investors who purchase Units in the private placements.

recourse..., page 23

3.       We note your revised disclosure in response to comment 6 and partially
reissue the
         comment. As previously requested, please further revise this risk
factor to discuss the fact
         that, as indicated on page 80, the Custodian's insurance is solely for
the benefit of the
         Custodian and does not guarantee or insure the Trust in any way.
Unitholders are bound by the fee-shifting provision contained in the
subscription agreement,
which may discourage actions against us, page 25

4.       We note your response to comment 7. Please revise your disclosure to
clarify whether the
         Trust itself would be able to recover pursuant to the fee-shifting
provision. You refer in
         your response letter to "claims involving the Trust, its Sponsor and
officers...." While
         the risk factor refers to you "including [y]our Sponsor and its
officers" seeking to enforce
         the provision, it does not specifically refer to the Trust seeking to
enforce the provision.
The Custodian, page 61

5.       We note your revised disclosure in response to comment 10. While your
revised
         disclosure states that Coinbase Custody was chartered in October of
2018, it remains
         unclear what specific experience it has with respect to acting as a
Bitcoin custodian.
         Please specifically discuss the experience of Coinbase Custody with
respect to acting as a
         Bitcoin custodian.
Description of Issuance of Units, page 70

6.     We note your revised disclosure in response to comment 13 including your
disclosure on
       page 70 that "[i]f and when the Trust has an active offering of Units
and the Trust
       determines an announcement of a halting of subscription agreement
offerings is necessary,

7.       We note that in response to comment 15, your revised disclosure
states, among others, that
         "[t]he Custodial Services Agreement states that the Custodian   s
maximum liability for
         each cold storage wallet shall be limited to $100,000,000. Our
internal practice is to
         maintain a value limit of $75,000,000 within each cold storage wallet.
We will engage the
         Custodian for the creation of an additional cold storage wallet once
the value exceeds the
         Custodian recommended limit of deposited Bitcoin in each cold storage
wallet of
         $80,000,000." Please further revise to explain how you monitor the
value of Bitcoin
         deposited in cold storage wallets for whether such value limits have
been met. In
         addition, provide explanatory disclosure reconciling the fact that
although you have an
         "internal practice" of maintaining a value limit of $75,000,000 within
each cold storage
         wallet, you will not engage the Custodian for the creation of an
additional cold storage
         wallet until the value in each cold storage wallet exceeds
$80,000,000.
        We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for
the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action
or absence of
action by the staff.
