Tokenization as a SaaS Liquidity Option
BlackRock's BUIDL tokenized Treasury fund has rapidly grown to $2 billion, bringing with it near-instant settlement and onchain collateral borrowing. CEO Larry Fink believes fully tokenizing every asset could eliminate market closures, free up billions now tied in settlement delays, and accelerate economic growth. While Treasuries lead the way, tokenized equities stand ready to follow once regulatory frameworks adapt, promising global trading access, shareholder voting via tokens, and dramatically reduced IPO costs.
