The asset manager’s EPXC fund tokenizes a cash-secured put-writing strategy, signaling deeper integration between traditional market products and blockchain.
Global asset manager WisdomTree has launched a new digital asset fund that brings a traditional options strategy onchain, a development that underscores the growing convergence between legacy asset management and blockchain-based financial infrastructure.
The WisdomTree Equity Premium Income Digital Fund, trading under the token ticker EPXC and the fund ticker WTPIX, is designed to track the price and yield performance of the Volos US Large Cap Target 2.5% PutWrite Index.
The benchmark models a systematic “put-writing” strategy, in which the index sells cash-secured put options to generate income. Rather than writing options directly on the S&P 500, the strategy uses contracts tied to the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY), effectively earning premiums by acting as the option seller.
