Summary
Particula, which describes itself as the prime rating provider for digital assets, announced on October 13, 2026 that it has assigned a AAA rating to the WisdomTree Treasury Money Market Digital Fund token, WTGXX, according to a GLOBE NEWSWIRE release. The AAA designation is the highest category on Particula's 26-notch rating scale. The rating reflects the issuance's bankruptcy-remote structure, investors' direct beneficial ownership rights, comprehensive regulatory oversight, a high-quality investment portfolio, and institutional-grade operational and technical control framework.

WTGXX represents a direct shareholder ownership interest in WisdomTree Treasury Money Market Digital Fund, an open-end money market fund organized as a series of WisdomTree Digital Trust. The trust is a Delaware statutory trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, with shares registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The fund seeks a high level of current income consistent with capital preservation and liquidity, while maintaining a stable $1.00 NAV per share. Its mandate limits investments to U.S. dollar cash, U.S. Treasury bills, notes and bonds with 93 days or less to maturity, overnight repurchase agreements fully collateralized by Treasury securities, and registered government money market funds. The company states these assets satisfy the reserve asset requirements under the GENIUS Act. As of the announcement, the fund held approximately $1.2 billion in total assets.

Regulatory developments underpin the distribution model. In February 2026, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting WisdomTree Securities, Inc. and other eligible broker-dealers to purchase and redeem WTGXX shares on a principal basis at a stable $1.00 per share. FINRA approved the associated principal trading activities. Together, the relief allows broker-dealers to hold inventory, provide continuous intraday liquidity and facilitate onchain settlement for eligible institutional investors.

Vinh Tran, Associate Director of Business Development at WisdomTree Onchain, said the rating recognizes the fund's regulated structure, conservative risk portfolio and institutional-grade operating and technical controls. Tran said WTGXX combines the investor protections and liquidity framework of a Rule 2a-7 money market fund with tokenized infrastructure, including the ability to exchange WTGXX with supported stablecoins across primary subscription and redemption flows and secondary-market channels. WisdomTree described the rating as providing institutions a third-party view of that integrated risk framework.

The full Particula rating report has not been published and is available to eligible institutional counterparties upon request to WisdomTree. WisdomTree cited approximately $170 billion in global assets under management as of its last reportable period, inclusive of assets managed by Ceres Partners. Secondary-market liquidity through WisdomTree Securities is subject to inventory and market conditions and may be limited or discontinued.
