Against the asset it holds
Total return of the fund, distributions included, beside the change in the asset over exactly the same dates. The difference is what holding the wrapper cost or gained against holding the asset. Over a full year it should sit close to minus the expense ratio; anything further away has another cause.
| Window | Van | CLNK | LINK | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 month | 08 Sep 2026 | -2.49% | +1.45% | -3.94 pp |

| 6 months | 09 Apr 2026 | +38.33% | +41.99% | -3.66 pp |
| Since first trade | 14 Jan 2026 | -11.50% | -9.99% | -1.51 pp |
Both lines start at 100 where the chosen range begins. A gap that opens between them is the cost, or gain, of holding the asset through the fund.

In the issuer’s words
The CLNK fund offers investors direct exposure to the Chainlink digital asset by holding the cryptocurrency itself, rather than utilizing futures contracts or other derivative instruments. Chainlink is a decentralized blockchain network primarily designed to connect smart contracts with external, real-world data via specialized oracle services, thereby enabling a broad spectrum of on-chain applications. The trust's net asset value is computed daily using the CME CF Chainlink-Dollar Reference Rate New York Variant, which reflects Chainlink's (LINK) US dollar valuation based on aggregated trading activity across leading platforms. Its shares are structured to provide access to Chainlink through a conventional exchange-traded vehicle, allowing investors to circumvent the operational and custodial complexities typically associated with directly acquiring and managing the asset. This trust operates under passive management, with Chainlink as its exclusive digital asset holding, and does not employ leverage or hedging strategies. While staking is not currently part of its operations, the trust may incorporate it as a secondary objective in the future, pending regulatory considerations.

What these figures cannot tell you
We do not publish a premium or discount to net asset value. Our source’s net asset value carries no date of its own, and comparing one day’s price with another day’s value invents a gap that is not there. The issuer publishes both every day.
Returns here are the fund’s, before your broker’s costs, the spread you pay to trade, and any tax. Distributions are counted as reinvested on the day they were paid.
A fund’s asset sits with a custodian named in its prospectus. The figures say nothing about that arrangement; the prospectus does.
A fund that follows its asset closely inherits all of the asset’s risks. The research file for the asset is where those are measured.
