Commodity trust shares are investment vehicles providing investors exposure to physical commodities without direct ownership. These shares represent beneficial ownership interests in a trust that holds a specific commodity, such as gold or oil. They trade on traditional stock exchanges, offering liquidity and accessibility. In the digital asset sphere, this structure can apply to trusts holding cryptocurrencies.
