WisdomTree brings options income strategy onchain with new tokenized fund

Cointelegraph
WisdomTree launched the EPXC digital fund, tokenizing a cash-secured put-writing options income strategy for institutional and retail investors.

Summary

Global asset manager WisdomTree has launched the WisdomTree Equity Premium Income Digital Fund (EPXC/WTPIX), which tokenizes a traditional options income strategy on the blockchain. The fund tracks the Volos US Large Cap Target 2.5% PutWrite Index, which employs a systematic cash-secured put-writing strategy using options tied to the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) to generate premium income.

This tokenized fund is accessible to both institutional and retail investors, including crypto-native users who benefit from faster settlement and greater transferability offered by blockchain infrastructure. Will Peck, WisdomTree’s head of digital assets, stated this launch is part of the firm's ongoing expansion into tokenized assets.

WisdomTree has been an early adopter in tokenization, currently operating 15 tokenized funds across blockchains like Ethereum and Avalanche. Its Government Money Market Digital Fund is its most active tokenized product, holding over $730 million in assets, signaling a growing integration between traditional finance products and decentralized infrastructure.
