WisdomTree Launches Tokenized Equity Premium Income Fund (EPXC) Bridging TradFi and Blockchain

WisdomTree makes another stride in merging traditional finance with digital assets through its newly launched WisdomTree Equity Premium Income Digital Fund. The tokenized fund (EPXC) and its traditional counterpart (WTPIX) employ a put-writing strategy tied to a major U.S. equity index, offering investors regulated on-chain exposure to real-world assets.

The fund tracks the Volos U.S. Large Cap Target 2.5% PutWrite Index, systematically selling put options on an S&P 500-tracking ETF while holding cash collateral. This approach, long favored by institutional investors, aims to generate income while mitigating volatility—a compelling proposition in today's uncertain markets.

WisdomTree's MOVE signals growing institutional confidence in tokenization, following BlackRock and Fidelity's recent forays into blockchain-based investment products. The EPXC fund specifically targets investors seeking risk-adjusted returns exceeding those of standard S&P 500 investments or covered call strategies.
