What the issuer filed with the SEC
A private offering files Form D with the SEC within 15 days of its first sale and amends it each year while it sells. The issuer signs it. It states the exemption relied on, the fund’s exclusion from the Investment Company Act (which decides who may buy), the smallest investment accepted, the amount sold, and how many investors hold.
| Filed | Form | Exemption claimed | Minimum | Sold to date | Investors |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-06-23 | D | Rule 506(c); Investment Company Act section 3(c)(7) | $100,000 | $25,000,000 | 2 |
Filed by Coinbase Tokenized Stablecoin Yield Feeder Fund Ltd (SEC CIK 2138534). Sold to date counts every sale since the first, not the fund’s size today. Ketju reads EDGAR daily; a new filing reopens this file.
The transfer agent’s SEC record
A transfer agent registers with the SEC on Form TA-1 and reports each year on Form TA-2: how many securityholder accounts it keeps and for how many issues it keeps the master securityholder file, the list that says who owns each share.
| Agent | SEC file | TA-2 period | Accounts | Issues with master file | Work it hires out |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Superstate Services LLC | 084-06972 | 2025-12-31 | 107 | 0 | None |
Who can change the record
Powers read from the deployed contracts and their verified source: the token and every contract it consults on transfer. A power recorded here is the issuer’s ability, not evidence it has been used.
| Chain | Freeze a holder | Pause | Claw back | Gate holders | Change the code | Keys held by |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Solana | Yes | No | Yes | Yes | No | An account only a program can sign for can freeze a holder and claw back tokens. |
| Base | Unverified | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Owner key: a single key. A single key, through a contract, can change the code with no delay. |
Who holds the keys
Every current holder of each power, read from the chain on 2026-09-24. A single key is one private key: whoever holds it acts alone. A multisig needs the stated number of signers. A timelock makes every action wait, so holders can see it coming.

Where it trades
| Venue | Kind |
|---|---|
| Superstate | issuer primary |
How it exits
| Path | Settlement | Settles in |
|---|---|---|
| Redeem with the issuer in its window | Quarterly: proceeds are paid on the Redemption Dealing Day for requests received in the previous calendar quarter, through Northern Trust as administrator. One sentence of Superstate’s documentation also says liquidity is offered at month end; its fund page and redemption section say quarterly, and the file follows them | USD, USDC |
- Coinbase Asset Management or Superstate publishes the offering memorandum; the file is then re-read for the investor class, gates, and redemption terms
- The Solana mint, freeze, or permanent-delegate authority changes, or the Base owner, proxy admin, or implementation changes
- Superstate settles whether redemptions are monthly or quarterly, or the fund gates or delays a redemption
- A Form D amendment changes the minimum, the exemption, or the investor count
What the monitor reads daily
Every control function in the table above and the contracts the token consults on transfer; the token’s on-chain supply against yesterday’s; and its market quote against yesterday’s quote, since a fund of this kind accrues a few basis points a day. Every document quoted above is re-read too, and a quote that leaves its document reopens the file. EDGAR is read for the issuer’s Form D filings and the transfer agent’s registration; a new filing reopens the file. A change opens a review item in the governance queue and reopens the file before any client action.
