What ETHA paid, and Ethereum's price

This is worked out from the money going in and the price on the day it arrived, so treat it as close rather than exact.

The Worth vs. paid tab divides Ethereum's price by that average. Above 1.0 the coins are worth more than the fund paid for them, and below 1.0 they are worth less. It is the same comparison as the two lines on the Buy price tab, as one number.
Coins in profit counts the Ethereum the fund holds that are worth more today than they cost, as a share of all of them.
