Grayscale has committed to reinvesting 100% of the sponsor fees from its Zcash ETF, ticker ZCSH, into the Zcash ecosystem during the fund's first year. These funds are designated for development, marketing, community building, and educational initiatives.
The ZCSH fund, which launched on August 25, 2026, on NYSE Arca, carries a fixed annual sponsor fee of 2.5%. Grayscale retains the right to modify or revoke this voluntary commitment at any time.
As of November 10, 2026, Grayscale has pledged $1 million to nonprofits supporting Zcash. To date, $400,000 has been distributed to four organizations, including the Zcash Foundation, Pretty Good Policy for Zcash, and Shielded Labs, each receiving $100,000.
The ETF, which converted from the Grayscale Zcash Trust established in 2017, holds ZEC tokens directly with Coinbase Custody as the primary custodian. As of November 9, 2026, the fund's assets under management were approximately $676 million.
