Cantor Fitzgerald Asset Management announced plans to launch its first bitcoin-focused investment vehicle—a novel fund designed to attract crypto-wary investors by combining the upside potential of bitcoin with the stability of gold.
The new Cantor Fitzgerald Gold Protected Bitcoin Fund will offer investors unlimited exposure to bitcoin’s price gains while providing one-to-one downside protection tied to the price of gold, the firm said in a Thursday press release.
Scheduled to open to investors in the coming weeks, the fund will operate over a five-year period.
“There are still people on Earth who are scared of bitcoin, and we want to bring them into this ecosystem,” said Cantor Fitzgerald Chairman Brandon Lutnick during a keynote appearance at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas. “I think it’s going to be one of the great products of the Earth.”
This new product marks a significant step in Cantor Fitzgerald’s expansion into the digital asset space. As institutional interest in cryptocurrencies continues to grow, Wall Street firms are increasingly introducing hybrid products that bridge the gap between traditional finance and the crypto economy.
Earlier this week, the firm also revealed the launch of its bitcoin lending division. Its first financing was extended to crypto lender Maple and digital asset prime brokerage FalconX.
The announcement reflects a broader trend of mainstream financial institutions deepening their involvement in digital assets, signaling that crypto investments are becoming more integrated into established financial markets.
