The information (Information) contained herein (which term also refers to any
document that contains a link to this page) may not be reproduced or

approval of Galaxy Digital Capital Management LP (GDCM). The Information
regarding the Galaxy Bitcoin Funds, the Galaxy Crypto Index Funds, the Galaxy
Ethereum Funds and any other Galaxy sponsored funds (the Funds) referenced
within this piece is provided for informational purposes only. The key facts
referenced herein are subject to change.

Certain statements reflect GDCM’s views, estimates, opinions or predictions
(which may be based on proprietary models and assumptions, including, in
particular, GDCM’s views on the current and future market for digital assets),
and there is no guarantee that these views, estimates, opinions or predictions
are currently accurate or that they will be ultimately realized. To the extent
these assumptions or models are not correct or circumstances change, the actual
performance of GDCM, Bitcoin and the Fund may vary substantially from, and be
less than, the estimated performance. None of GDCM, the Fund nor any of their
respective affiliates, shareholders, partners, members, directors, officers,
management, employees or representatives makes any representation or warranty,
express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of any of the Information
or any other information (whether communicated in written or oral form)
transmitted or made available to you. Each of the aforementioned parties
expressly disclaims any and all liability relating to or resulting from the use
of the Information or such other information.

The information contained herein is provided for informational purposes only, is
not complete, and does not contain certain material information about the Fund,
including important disclosures and risk factors associated with an investment
in the Fund, and is subject to change without notice. This information is not
intended to be, nor should it be construed or used as an offer to sell, or a
solicitation of any offer to buy, shares or limited partnership interests in the
Fund.

Hedge funds and other alternative investments involve a high degree of risk and
can be illiquid due to restrictions on transfer and lack of a secondary trading
market. They can be highly leveraged, speculative, and volatile, and an investor
could lose all or a substantial amount of an investment. Alternative investments
may lack transparency to investors of information as to share price, valuation,
and portfolio holdings. Complex tax structures often result in delayed tax
reporting and potentially materially different returns for offshore versus
onshore investors. Compared to mutual funds, alternative investments are subject
to less regulation and often charge higher fees.

The performance of the Fund will vary from, as applicable, the performance of
the Bloomberg Galaxy Crypto Index, Bloomberg Bitcoin Cryptocurrency Fixing Rate
or other reference point or index referred to in the offering memorandum of the
particular Fund. Fixing rate reference points and indices are unmanaged and
cannot be invested in directly.

The Information is being provided to you solely for discussion purposes and may
not be used or relied on for any purpose (including, without limitation, as
legal, tax or investment advice) as a potential service provider to the Fund
without the express written approval of GDCM. The Information is not an offer to
buy or sell, nor is it a solicitation of an offer to buy or sell, interests in
the Funds or any advisory services or any other security or to participate in
any advisory services or trading strategy. If any offer and sale of securities
is made, it will be pursuant to the confidential offering memorandum of the Fund
(the Offering Memorandum). Any decision to make an investment in the Fund should
be made after reviewing such Offering Memorandum, conducting such investigations
as the investor deems necessary and consulting the investor’s own investment,
legal, accounting and tax advisors in order to make an independent determination
of the suitability and consequences of an investment.

Except where otherwise indicated, the Information is based on matters as they
exist as of the date of preparation and not as of any future date and will not
be updated or otherwise revised to reflect information that subsequently becomes
available, or circumstances existing or changes occurring after the date hereof.

GALAXY FUNDS RISK FACTORS

Please note that the following are not all the risk factors associated with
Digital Assets or the Funds. Refer to the Offering Memorandum of the applicable
Fund for more risk factors.

Investment Risks Generally. An investment in the Fund, involves a high degree of
risk, including the risk that the entire amount invested may be lost. A Fund
will invest in directly or through other pooled investment vehicles (“Other
Private Funds”) in Digital Assets (such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, other
cryptocurrencies or blockchain based assets, including those that represent the
Decentralized Finance (or DeFi) portion or sector of the digital assets market)
using strategies and investment techniques with significant risk
characteristics, including risks arising from the volatility of the global
Digital Assets markets and the risk of loss from counterparty defaults. The
Fund’s investment program may use investment techniques that involve substantial
volatility and can, in certain circumstances, substantially increase the adverse
impact to which the Fund may be subject. All investments made by the Fund will
risk the loss of capital. No guarantee or representation is made that the Fund’s
investment program will be successful, that the Fund will achieve its investment
objective or that there will be any return of capital invested to investors in
the Fund, and investment results may vary.

Different from Directly Owning Bitcoin, Ethereum or Other Digital Assets. The
performance of the Fund will not reflect the specific return an investor would
realize if the investor actually purchased a Digital Asset. Investors in the
Fund will not have any rights that Digital Asset holders have.

No Guarantee of Return or Performance. The obligations or performance of the
Fund or the returns on investments in the Fund are not guaranteed in any way.
Any losses of the Fund will be borne solely by investors in the Fund. Ownership
interests in the Fund are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, and are not deposits, obligations of, or endorsed or guaranteed in
any way, by any banking entity.

Regulation. Digital Assets, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and DeFi tokens, are
loosely regulated. Ongoing and future regulatory actions may alter, perhaps to a
materially adverse extent, the value of a Fund’s investment. If any Digital
Asset is determined to be a “security” under U.S. federal or state securities
laws or a Digital Asset exchange is determined to be operating illegally, it may
have material adverse consequences for Digital Assets due to negative publicity
or a decline in the general acceptance of Digital Assets. As such, any
determination Digital Asset exchanges are operating illegally or that any
Digital Asset is a security under U.S. federal or state securities laws may
adversely affect the value of a particular Digital Asset or Digital Assets
generally and, as a result, the value of a Fund’s investment.

Exchanges. Exchanges may suffer from operational issues, such as delayed
execution, that could have an adverse effect on the Fund. Digital Asset
exchanges have been closed due to fraud, failure or security breaches. Any of
the Fund’s funds that reside on an exchange that shuts down or suffers a breach
may be lost.

Value. Several factors may affect the price of Digital Assets, including
Bitcoin, Ethereum and DeFi tokens, including, but not limited to: supply and
demand, investors’ expectations with respect to the rate of inflation, interest
rates, currency exchange rates or future regulatory measures (if any) that
restrict the trading of a Digital Asset or the use of a Digital Asset as a form
of payment. There is no assurance that a Digital Asset will maintain its
long-term value in terms of purchasing power in the future, or that acceptance
of bitcoin payments by mainstream retail merchants and commercial businesses
will continue to grow.

Protocol.  Many Digital Asset networks, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and DeFi
tokens, operate on open-source protocols maintained by groups of core
developers. The open-source structure of these network protocols means that
certain core developers and other contributors may not be compensated, either
directly or indirectly, for their contributions in maintaining and developing
the network protocol. Lack of incentives to, or a failure to properly, monitor
and upgrade network protocol could damage a Digital Asset network. It is
possible that a Digital Asset protocol has undiscovered flaws that could result
in the loss of some or all assets held by the Fund. There may also be
network-scale attacks against a Digital Asset protocol, which could result in
the loss of some or all of assets held by the Fund. Advancements in quantum
computing could break a Digital Asset’s cryptographic rules. The Fund makes no
guarantees about the reliability of the cryptography used to create, issue, or
transmit Digital Assets held by the Fund.

Volatility & Supply. Values of Digital Assets have historically been highly
volatile, experiencing periods of rapid price increase as well as decline. For
instance, there were steep increases in the value of certain Digital Assets,
including Bitcoin, over the course of 2017, and multiple market observers
asserted that digital assets were experiencing a “bubble.” These increases were
followed by steep drawdowns. During the period from December 17, 2017 to
February 5, 2018, Bitcoin experienced a decline of roughly 60%. More recently,
during the period from February 13, 2020, until March 16, 2020, the value of
Bitcoin fell by over 50%. Bitcoin had a strong start to 2021, hitting an all
time high of nearly$65k in April. But, it closed H1 2021 down 47% from its
record. Supply of Digital Assets is determined by computer code, not by a
central bank. For example, uncertainty related to the effects of Bitcoin’s
recent and future “halving” could contribute to volatility in the Bitcoin
markets. The value of the Bitcoin or other Digital Assets held by a Fund could
decline rapidly in future periods, including to zero.

Decentralized Finance (DeFi) Risks. Decentralized Finance (or DeFi) refers to a
variety of blockchain-based applications or protocols that provide for
peer-to-peer financial services using smart contracts and other technology
rather than such services being offered by central intermediaries. Common DeFi
applications include borrowing/lending Digital Assets and providing liquidity or
market making in Digital Assets. Because DeFi applications rely on smart
contracts, any errors, bugs, or vulnerabilities in smart contracts used in
connection with DeFi activities may adversely affect such activities. DeFi
lending is subject to counterparty risk and credit risk, but because lending is
automated through the DeFi protocol, rather than individual decisions made by a
portfolio manager on behalf of a Fund, such risks may be exacerbated,
particularly if there are flaws in DeFi protocol’s code or operation. DeFi
applications may involve regulated financial products or regulated activities,
however because of their decentralized nature, there is generally no entity
subject to regulatory supervision. Accordingly, DeFi applications may be subject
to more risks than engaging in similar activities through regulated financial
intermediaries. In addition, in certain decentralized protocols, it may be
difficult or impossible to verify the identity of a transaction counterparty
necessary to comply with any applicable anti-money laundering, countering the
financing of terrorism, or sanctions regulations or controls. All of these risks
could cause the value of DeFi tokens held by a Fund to decline, including to
zero.

Fund of Funds Risks. A Galaxy Vision Hill Fund’s approach to investment in Other
Private Funds subjects the Fund to risks and expenses of the Other Private
Funds. Such risk encompasses the possibility of loss due to the Other Private
Funds’ fraud, intentional or inadvertent deviations from a predefined investment
strategy (including excessive concentration, directional investing outside of
predefined ranges, excessive leverage, or new capital markets), or simply poor
judgment. The returns of the Other Private Funds are impacted by the ability of
the Other Private Funds and their general partners or investment managers, in
their capacity as the investment manager to the Other Private Funds, to
successfully apply their investment techniques to generate profits for the Other
Private Funds. The volatility of the Other Private Funds will depend on the
nature of their exposure to investments and on each general partner or
investment manager, in their capacity as the investment manager to the Other
Private Funds, ability to reduce risk by trading and hedging techniques. There
can be no assurance that the Other Private Funds will achieve their objectives
or avoid substantial losses During the lifetime of the Fund, there could be
material changes in the Other Private Funds The effect of such changes of the
Other Private Funds cannot be predicted but could be material and adverse Under
certain circumstances, the Fund may not be able to exit an underlying investment
in the Other Private Fund or alter its portfolio allocation in response to any
such changes, which may result in substantial losses from investing in the Other
Private Funds. All of these risks could cause the value of the Other Private
Funds held by the Fund to decline, including to zero. The fund of funds
structure also exposes investors to multiple layers of expenses and fees. Fund
investors will incur management, performance, advisory, sponsorship or other
fees and expenses due to the Fund’s investing in or allocating assets to Other
Private Funds. Further, the Other Private Funds investments will subject the
Fund to normal operating fees and expenses, including exchange commissions or
other fees and costs associated with their investments. Performance fees will be
calculated separately for each Other Private Fund, so the Fund could bear
substantial performance fees in respect of Other Private Funds whose trading is
profitable even when the Fund as a whole has a loss. The fees and expenses of
the Other Private Funds are in addition to those incurred by investors through
an investment in the Fund itself. Such layers of fees could be substantial and
have a material adverse effect on performance of an investment in the Fund.
