Goldman Sachs will bring its 100000000000 USD U.S. Treasury fund FTIXX to the cryptocurrency institutional market
PANews September 29 reported, citing CoinDesk, that Goldman Sachs will bring its U.S. Treasury fund, with assets of approximately 100000000000 USD U.S. Treasury fund FTIXX to digital asset institutions, but will not create a tokenized version. The fund will be offered through the Lynq settlement network, with trades processed by SEC registered broker-dealer tZERO Securities, making it the first external fund on Lynq. Unlike BlackRock’s BUIDL tokenized fund and Franklin Templeton’s tokenized shares provided through BENJI,FTIXX remains a traditional fund, and Lynq simply provides digital asset companies with another access channel. For companies using Lynq,FTIXX offers the option of holding cash between trades and earning yield, with withdrawals available at any time.
PANews said the information came from a CoinDesk report.

AI-assisted interpretation
The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
This does not turn the FTIXX into on-chain tokens; instead, through Lynq it adds a channel for digital asset companies to access the traditional fund. The reported use case is to allow relevant companies to hold cash between trades, earn yield, and withdraw it at any time.
Why it matters to readers
If the arrangement described in the report is actually made available, digital asset companies using Lynq will have another option for managing cash between trades; at the same time, this arrangement does not represent newly added FTIXX tokenized shares.
Beginners should focus on distinguishing between “the fund being opened through a new channel” and “the fund being tokenized”: the original text clearly states that FTIXX remains a traditional fund, while Lynq is merely an access channel.
