Private Credit Goes Digital as WisdomTree Launches Token Fund

WisdomTree Launches Tokenized Private Credit Fund

WisdomTree has launched a new tokenized fund focused on private credit, offering low minimum investments and fast liquidity.

The WisdomTree Private Credit and Alternative Income Digital Fund (CRDT) tracks a basket of 35 publicly traded closed-end funds, business development companies, and real estate investment trusts, according to Bloomberg. Investors can participate with just $25, and redemptions are processed within two days.

This fund builds on WisdomTree’s 2021 ETF tracking the same benchmark, the WisdomTree Private Credit and Alternative Income Fund. Private credit—lending outside traditional banks—has grown rapidly as investors seek yield-focused opportunities.

“It’s really just about bringing the asset class to a whole universe of different investors,” said Will Peck, head of digital assets at WisdomTree.

The launch is part of a broader push by major asset managers into tokenized investment products. BlackRock offers a $2 billion tokenized money market fund, while Fidelity and VanEck have introduced similar blockchain-based offerings. Though still modest compared with traditional ETFs and mutual funds, these initiatives show increasing adoption of tokenized real-world assets.
