Winklevoss Asset Services filed a preliminary S-1 with the SEC for a proposed spot Zcash ETF that would hold ZEC directly and list on Nasdaq under the ticker WINK. The filing sets an annual sponsor fee of 0.25% and places the fund in competition with Grayscale’s existing U.S. Zcash ETF. The prospectus says the filing is not yet effective, so shares cannot be sold until that changes.
Key claims & sources
What it means
People watching Zcash and U.S. crypto ETFs would notice a new proposed Nasdaq product from Winklevoss Asset Services, and the filing places another potential spot ZEC vehicle next to Grayscale’s live fund. The fee level and the proposed ticker are now part of the public record, which gives market participants a concrete reference point for how this product is framed today.
In practice, the filing does not yet make shares available for trading, and the prospectus says the registration statement is still preliminary and can change before it becomes effective. That means the new fund exists as a proposed structure holding ZEC directly, while the current live U.S. Zcash ETF remains Grayscale’s product.
