Goldman Sachs made its Treasury money-market fund FTIXX available to qualified institutional crypto users through Lynq, a settlement network tied to Avalanche and run with tZERO involvement. The fund is being offered in its existing form rather than as a tokenized product, and the setup is aimed at institutional users rather than retail traders.

What this rests on

Claim by claim, with its source
✓
Goldman Sachs’ FTIXX fund became available on Lynq as the first outside fund offered through the network, giving institutional digital-asset firms access to a traditional Treasury product without tokenization.
✓
Goldman Sachs’ FTIXX was presented as the first external fund available on Lynq, giving institutional digital-asset firms access to an existing money-market product without tokenization.
✓
tZERO’s broker-dealer handles the trades for the Goldman Sachs fund on Lynq, and the network runs on a private Avalanche blockchain.
✓
tZERO said on 28 September that qualified U.S. participants could reach the Goldman Sachs Financial Square Treasury Instruments Fund through the Lynq settlement network it powers.
✓
The fund was reported at about $105.3 billion in total assets at the end of August, with $97.3 billion in the Institutional Shares class that trade as FTIXX.
✓
Avalanche’s official account described Lynq as a private, permissioned Avalanche L1 used by more than 30 institutional firms.
✓
Goldman Sachs opened access to FTIXX for qualified crypto companies through Lynq and tZERO Securities, and the fund’s institutional class had an annualized yield of 3.59% as of September 9.

What it means

Institutional crypto firms, and the custodial and trading stack around them, now have another way to place cash into a Goldman Sachs Treasury fund through Lynq. That matters today because the access path is framed for qualified participants, not retail users, and it sits on a private Avalanche-based network with tZERO handling trades.

What changes in practice is that firms can reach FTIXX through Lynq without using a tokenized version of the fund, while the fund itself remains the same money-market product. What stays the same is that access is still limited to qualified U.S. or crypto participants rather than opening the product broadly to everyone.
