  "body": "# Janus Henderson and Centrifuge launch JQQQ onchain Nasdaq-100 fund on Stellar\n\n*Janus Henderson and Centrifuge launched JQQQ on October 27, 2026, an issuer-sponsored onchain fund tracking the Nasdaq-100 Index on the Stellar network.*\n\nJanus Henderson and Centrifuge launched JQQQ on October 27, 2026, an issuer-sponsored onchain fund that tracks the Nasdaq-100 Index and runs on the Stellar network. Janus Henderson issues and manages the fund, Centrifuge provides the blockchain infrastructure, and Nasdaq licenses the index.\n\nThe fund is a segregated portfolio of Anemoy Capital SPC Limited, with Janus Henderson Investors as sub-investment manager. It is not open to US persons and is offered only to eligible investors in jurisdictions where it can lawfully be marketed.\n\nThe structure separates JQQQ from third-party stock tokens. An issuer-sponsored fund is issued and managed by the fund manager. Third-party tokens may be backed by shares held in custody or built as separate instruments tracking prices, and holders do not necessarily own the shares or receive shareholder rights, [CoinDesk reported](https://www.coindesk.com/business/2026/10/27/nasdaq-100-comes-onchain-as-janus-henderson-and-centrifuge-launch-first-licensed-fund).\n\n\"Demand continues to grow for exposure to established, transparent benchmarks,\" said Sean Wasserman, head of index product management at Nasdaq.\n\nAnil Sood, chief strategy and growth officer at Centrifuge, said: \"The assets investors want to own can also become building blocks for an onchain financial system.\"\n\nJanus Henderson's onchain platform holds more than $1 billion across Treasuries, structured credit and equities. In 2025 the firm launched SPXA, a tokenized S&P 500 fund.",
