BUIDL becomes a cornerstone of institutional collateral, allowing professional traders to use a tokenized asset backed by US Treasuries, lucrative and now available on the BNB Chain.
The BlackRock x Binance collaboration accelerates the adoption of on-chain finance by integrating BUIDL into off-exchange mechanisms supported by tripartite banks and Ceffu.
The arrival on the BNB Chain is part of an explosive momentum: record volumes, growth of RWA, rise of Aster, and strengthening of the Binance ecosystem position BUIDL as the premium standard of tokenization.
On-chain finance has just entered a new dimension. BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, and Binance, the largest crypto platform in the market, join forces around the tokenized treasury fund BUIDL. The asset, already massive with over $2.5 billion, now lands on the BNB Chain and becomes a collateral tool for institutional trading on Binance. A combination that shifts the balance of power in tokenization.
BUIDL, a stable collateral premium for pros
BUIDL functions as a tokenized asset indexed to the dollar, akin to a stablecoin but backed by a real portfolio of US Treasury bonds. For institutions, it’s a game changer.
Until now, these actors often had to juggle with multiple types of collaterals, often non-lucrative, to trade actively. Now, they can deposit BUIDL on Binance and benefit from a remunerative asset while maintaining exposure to tokenized Treasuries.
Binance activates the feature starting this Friday, allowing BUIDL to serve as off-exchange collateral, a format particularly favored by institutional desks. The platform relies on its network of tripartite agents, banks specializing in secure short-term financing, as well as its crypto custody partner, Ceffu.
A strong signal for the rise of tokenization
BlackRock and Binance speak of a “fundamental foundation of on-chain finance“. The term is not exaggerated. As institutional flows migrate to blockchain infrastructures, the need for stable, safe, and interest-bearing collaterals is soaring. BUIDL ticks all the boxes, with the advantage of existing on Ethereum as well as Aptos, Avalanche, Solana, Arbitrum, Polygon, or Optimism.
The arrival on the BNB Chain is not just a technical port. The chain’s ecosystem is experiencing an exceptional year. The derivatives platform Aster, often quietly described by CZ as the major rival of HyperLiquid, has attracted record volumes. Binance Alpha and Binance Wallet have strengthened incoming flows, while real-world asset issuers like Ondo Finance gradually integrated the chain.
New dynamics, new flows, a new playground for BlackRock.
Binance x BUIDL: a partnership that could reshape the market
The message to the markets is clear. Tokenization is no longer a laboratory, it is a mainstream financial product. BUIDL positions itself as a premium standard, designed for both cash management and advanced trading strategies.
More tokenized assets, more supported chains, more concrete uses. The question is no longer whether on-chain Treasuries will prevail, but at what speed they will absorb traditional market uses.
With this extension on the BNB Chain, BlackRock reinforces its dominant position in tokenized finance, while Binance offers a collateral tool that precisely meets the expectations of its institutional clients. A strategic alliance, at a time when the boundary between traditional finance and crypto finance is dissolving more and more each day.
