The fund invests in cash, U.S. Treasury bills, notes, and other short-duration securities with maturities of 93 days or less. The new tokenized shares would trade on Ethereum alongside the fund\u2019s existing traditional share classes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:400\">The product is aimed squarely at <span>stablecoin<\/span> investors, a fast-growing segment that holds significant capital in digital dollars but earns little or no yield on those holdings.
