Grayscale Announces 3-for-1 Share Split for Zcash ETF ZCSH
Grayscale is splitting its Zcash ETF shares three-for-one effective September 30 after the fund approached $1 billion in assets within weeks of launch.
Why it matters
The split lowers the nominal share price of ZCSH, which may make the fund more accessible to investors who cannot buy fractional shares through traditional brokerages. The fund's rapid growth to near $1 billion in assets within roughly a month reflects substantial institutional demand for ZEC exposure.
