Overview

• REX Shares and Osprey Funds introduced the REX‑Osprey ETH + Staking ETF (ticker ESK), pairing spot Ether exposure with on‑chain staking yields.
• The fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, bringing staking activity into a conventional, regulated ETF structure.
• ESK holds a blend of directly staked ETH and other exchange‑traded products that themselves maintain staked Ethereum positions.
• All validator rewards are paid through to shareholders as monthly distributions, with no portion retained by the issuers.
• The launch follows the Solana + Staking ETF surpassing $300 million in assets and converting to a RIC structure, as spot ETH ETF inflows cool and the SEC extends its review of staking features.
