Polkadot (DOT) is currently the 18th largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. However, its price has declined in recent months.

Polkadot（DOT）目前是市值的第18大加密货币。但是，最近几个月的价格下降。

The SEC filing highlights the uncertainty in Polkadot’s price performance, stating:

“There is no assurance that DOT will maintain its value in the long or intermediate term. In the event that the price of DOT declines, the Sponsor expects the value of the Shares to decline proportionately.”

“市场将决定价值在哪里，以及推出这种产品的价值是否有价值。如果没有人将钱投入polkadot ETF，它将关闭。人们可以自由发射SEC允许的任何ETF，”

Seyffart said in a Jan. 31 post on X.
