JPMorgan Chase is bringing blockchain technology to an investing staple with its first tokenized money-market fund. The $4 trillion banking giant’s asset-management division is seeding the fund with $100 million of its own capital and plans to open it to outside investors on Tuesday. Named the My OnChain Net Yield Fund, or “MONY,” the private fund will use JPMorgan’s tokenization platform Kinexys Digital Assets , to add digital versions of traditional money-market investments, available in several blockchain networks. According to a Monday Wall Street Journal report on the matter, MONY is meant for qualified investors, including those with at least $5 million in assets and institutions with a minimum of $25 million, although the fund itself requires a $1 million minimum investment. JPMorgan fuels Wall Street’s tokenization push The New York-based $4 trillion multinational banking firm’s launch is in tandem with a wave of institutional tokenization kickstarted by the Genius Act, passed and signed by US President Donald Trump on July 18. The legislation provides a regulatory framework for tokenized dollars, known as stablecoins, and has encouraged financial firms to adopt blockchain-based stocks. For JPMorgan Chase , tokenized products promise faster settlement, transparency, and programmable dividend and interest distribution. “There is a massive amount of interest from clients around tokenization,” said John Donohue, head of global liquidity at JPMorgan Asset Management. “And we expect to be a leader in this space and work with clients to make sure that we have a product lineup that allows them to have the choices that we have in traditional money-market funds on blockchain.” Through the MONY fund, investors can subscribe via JPMorgan’s Morgan Money portal, the bank’s platform for money-market investments. Subscribers will receive digital tokens directly in their crypto wallets for their immediate blockchain-based ownership and transfer. MONY, much like conventional money-market funds, holds diversified baskets of relatively safe short-term debt securities. The fund pays interest and accrues dividends daily, providing investors with predictable returns that could peak bank deposits. “Clients want the options that exist in traditional money-market funds but on blockchain,” Donohue said, reiterating JPMorgan’s plan to provide a “familiar investment experience” for stock market enthusiasts on the blockchain. Money-market funds have been a mainstay of investing since the 1970s, and their popularity has surged in recent years. Assets in money funds reached approximately $7.7 trillion, up from $6.9 trillion at the start of 2025, according to the Investment Company Institute. The total market capitalization of stablecoins has grown to over $300 billion, per data from CoinGecko. As reported by Cryptopolitan last Thursday, JPMorgan Chase arranged a $50 million short-term bond for Galaxy Digital Holdings on the Solana blockchain. As reported by Reuters, crypto exchange Coinbase Global and investment management firm Franklin Templeton purchased the commercial paper, a short-term unsecured debt instrument. Head of Markets Digital Assets at JPMorgan Scott Lucas talked about the bank’s plans to build on this momentum in an interview with Reuters, saying the bank intends to build on this momentum by seeing how its role in it can be expanded in the first half of next year. “We’re confident there is strong demand for this type of innovation, and we’re committed to supporting our clients and the market as we move forward,” Lucas concluded. US-based banks continue with tokenization plans JPMorgan’s expansion into tokenization follows a trend among other major asset managers. BlackRock , for instance, operates the largest tokenized money-market fund, managing over $1.8 billion in assets. Since the Trump administration eased regulations on the broader cryptocurrency industry, several companies have been contributing to the growth in the valuation of crypto-related securities. In July, Goldman Sachs and Bank of New York Mellon announced a partnership to issue digital tokens representing ownership of money-market funds managed by leading firms, including BlackRock, Fidelity Investments, and their own asset-management divisions. “We’ve always used technology to do a better job for clients. And we’re gonna do the same thing with tokenization. Blockchain is real, and it’s been around for quite a while, now becoming more efficient,” said JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon.
