That difference is the fee, the custody cost, the friction of creating and redeeming shares in blocks and whatever the market paid for the shares rather than for the coin, all together."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Do ETH or TETH pay a staking yield?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Ether is a proof of stake chain, so staking is possible. Whether either trust stakes, and what the sponsor keeps of it, is a term in its own filings and is read from those rather than assumed."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What is the difference between ETH and TETH?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Both hold Ether through a custodian and both trade on an exchange, so what separates them is what each costs a holder over time.
