The move involves adopting a cash-settled model and some additional bets.In December 2023, ARK 21Shares and BlackRock were <a href="https://hodl.fm/crypto-etf-marketing" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">among the first issuers</a> to turn their spot Bitcoin ETFs into a cash-settled creation and redemption model after cozying up to the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Now, they&#39;re bringing that <a href="https://hodl.fm/sec-prospects-eth-etf-approval" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">same flair to their Ether ETF</a>, with plans to throw some of it out there to rake in some extra cash.Related: <a href="https://hodl.fm/crypto-etf-marketing" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Top Videos ETF Issuers Released as Ads</a><h2 id="header-0">ARK 21Shares Initially Proposed an In-kind Redemption Model</h2>ARK 21Shares initially served up an in-kind redemption model for its spot Ether ETF, complete with non-cash payments like BTC. Following the cash-settled creation model, ARK 21Shares will be rounding up some Ether equivalent to the order size and depositing it into the trust&#39;s account at the custodian&#39;s place.
