What's happening: Bitcoin ETF Custody Concentrates Power, Raising Systemic Risk

WisdomTree has launched the EPXC token, a digital‑asset fund that mirrors the Volos US Large Cap Target 2.5% PutWrite Index, bringing a traditional put‑writing options income strategy onto blockchain. The fund is available to both institutional and retail investors, offering faster settlement and flexible transferability through tokenization. EPXC joins a growing suite of 15 tokenized products that WisdomTree operates across Ethereum, Avalanche and Base. The move underscores the accelerating convergence of legacy asset management with on‑chain financial infrastructure.
