Dear Matthew J. Bromberg:
We have reviewed your

Please respond to this letter by amending your registration
statement and providing the
requested information. If you do not believe a comment applies to your

or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in
your response.
After reviewing any amendment to your registration statement and
the information you

Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-1
General
1. Please revise your
disclosures throughout the filing to clarify whether the replacement of
the Sponsor has taken
place yet and the date that the Sponsor replacement has been, or
will be, effectuated.
In this regard, please revise to address the following points:
We note that you
have included bracketed dates indicating the date on which the
Sponsor
replacement occurred. See the prospectus cover page and page 1 of the
prospectus
summary. To the extent that the Sponsor replacement has been
effectuated,
please revise to complete the bracketed dates.
Alternatively, to
the extent that the Sponsor replacement has not occurred yet, please
clarify the date
on which you expect the replacement will occur, including whether
the replacement
will occur prior to the effectiveness of this post-effective
amendment. In this
regard, on one hand, we note that: (i) on the facing page you
include ETF
Managers Capital LLC ("ETFMC") as an agent for service and the
address of ETFMC
as the address of your principal executive office, (ii) the signature
Matthew J. Bromberg
ETF Managers Group Commodity Trust I
January 18, 2024
Page 2
page identifies ETFMC as the Sponsor, and (iii) on December 28, 2023
you filed a
Rule 424(b)(3) prospectus disclosing that "[i]t is expected that the
Sponsor
Replacement will occur during the first quarter of 2024, subject to
certain conditions,
including, but not limited to, a post-effective amendment to the
Fund s registration
statement being declared effective by the SEC." On the other hand,
we note that your
disclosure throughout the filing refers to ETFMC as the "Former
Sponsor."
Please revise to clarify or reconcile your disclosures, as appropriate.
2. Please revise throughout your filing to ensure that you correctly
reference the name of the
Trust of which the Fund is a series. In this regard, the facing page of
this registration
statement identifies the Trust as ETF Managers Group Commodity Trust
I, while the
prospectus cover page identifies the Trust as Amplify Commodity Trust.
Please revise
to clarify or reconcile your disclosure, as appropriate.
3. We note that on December 28, 2023, you filed a Form 8-K disclosing that
ETF Managers
Capital LLC, as the sponsor of the Trust, entered into an agreement to
resign as sponsor to
the Trust and transfer its role as the sponsor to Amplify Investments
LLC. In an
appropriate section, please revise to discuss the material terms of this
agreement and file it
as an exhibit to the registration statement.
4. Please complete and update all information that is currently in brackets
or missing in the
filing, including exhibits.
Prospectus Summary, page 1
5. Please revise the prospectus summary to disclose, consistent with the
fourth risk factor on
page 16, that the Sponsor has no experience operating a commodity pool or
trading other
commodity accounts, and, as a result, the operation and performance of
the Fund may be
adversely affected by this lack of experience.
We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for
the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action
or absence of
action by the staff.
Please contact Jessica Livingston at 202-551-3448 or David Lin at
202-551-3552 with
any questions.
Sincerely,
