WisdomTree Bridges Traditional Finance and Blockchain with EPXC Tokenized Fund

• WisdomTree launches a tokenized digital fund aimed at income and volatility management.
• The fund applies a put-writing strategy tied to a major U.S. equity index.
• EPXC expands regulated, on-chain access to real-world assets for investors.
• The strategy targets income-focused investors navigating market uncertainty.

WisdomTree has rolled out the WisdomTree Equity Premium Income Digital Fund, designed to provide both income and stability. The fund trades under EPXC for its tokenized version and WTPIX for its traditional fund. It tracks the Volos U.S. Large Cap Target 2.5% PutWrite Index, which measures a systematic approach to selling put options on a large-cap ETF while holding cash as collateral.

Put-writing strategies have long been favored by professional investors. They generate income and help reduce volatility in equity markets. WisdomTree already offers a similar benchmark-based product and now brings that expertise into a digital, tokenized structure for investors seeking on-chain access to regulated assets.

Tokenized Fund Targets Premium Income and Stability

The goal of EPXC is to provide additional risk-adjusted returns compared with the S&P 500 Index or a covered call strategy. This investment vehicle writes put options every other week on the ETF that tracks the S&P 500 Index, with a target premium of 2.5%. This additional income may mitigate losses when equity markets decline. The effect of enhanced market sensitivities brings more income opportunities during unsettled markets.

This strategy may be relatively effective in flat markets and declining markets. By using WisdomTree Prime and WisdomTree Connect, customers can access transparent and tokenized investment in real-world assets. This marks the fifteenth tokenized fund available for investment via WisdomTree Prime and WisdomTree Connect. This therefore makes it easier for customers to access diversified investments with yield.

Revolutionizing Access to Regulated Assets via Tokenization

WisdomTree points out that tokenization ensures wider access to regulated investment strategies. A number of investors have used option-based ETFs for income generation. The innovation of this strategy on a blockchain network ensures that cryptocurrency investors have a similar tool for risk management and income generation. EPXC focuses on premium generation, downside protection, and volatility management to meet the needs of income-conscious investors.

This investment vehicle is also prone to other risks, such as those associated with derivatives, blockchain transactions, and market fluctuations. Losses may arise depending on whether option trades are unfavorable to this investment vehicle. Blockchain networks might be prone to congestion and disruptions. Despite these risks, the EPXC symbolizes a connection between conventional investment approaches and contemporary investment infrastructure.
