WisdomTree is expanding its tokenization efforts to Solana, adding the blockchain to the list of networks supporting its real-world asset (RWA) products.
The New York–based asset manager, best known for its exchange-traded funds, said Wednesday that both institutional and retail investors will be able to mint, trade and hold its full suite of tokenized funds on Solana through the WisdomTree Connect and WisdomTree Prime platforms.
The move is part of WisdomTree’s broader multichain strategy and comes as asset managers look to bring traditional financial products onchain to meet growing interest in tokenized money market funds, equities and fixed-income products.
“Bringing our full suite of tokenized funds to Solana reflects our continued focus on regulated real-world assets across the onchain ecosystem,” said Maredith Hannon, head of business development for digital assets at WisdomTree, in a press release shared with CoinDesk.
With the integration, WisdomTree’s tokenized offerings will be available natively on Solana, allowing institutional and retail users to access the funds directly onchain and through the firm’s stablecoin conversion services.
Institutional clients using WisdomTree Connect will be able to mint, hold and manage tokenized fund positions directly on Solana, while retail users on WisdomTree Prime can add USDC, purchase tokenized funds without exiting to traditional banking rails, and hold their investments in self-custody wallets.
Traditional asset managers have increasingly entered the tokenization space, betting that blockchain-based infrastructure can reduce settlement times, improve accessibility and unlock new distribution channels for regulated financial products.

Pudgy Penguins: A New Blueprint for Tokenized Culture
Pudgy Penguins is building a multi-vertical consumer IP platform — combining phygital products, games, NFTs and PENGU to monetize culture at scale.
What to know:
Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.
The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.
