The US financial market has shaken up Traditional finance as it advances with the adoption of Tokenized funds. According to news reports, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) subcommittee has voted to move tokenized products a step closer to acceptance in American financial markets as collateral. Officials speculate that this move could cement the tokenized assets grounds by helping players like BlackRock’s BUIDL and Franklin Templeton’s FOBXX breakthrough. 
<h2 id="b-cftc-subcommittee-endorses-tokenized-collateral-b">CFTC Subcommittee Endorses Tokenized Collateral&nbsp;</h2> 
The Committee has recommended Tokenized Fund Shares based on Money Market Funds to serve as collateral for the CFTC [Global Markets Advisory Committee] Sub-Committee’s framework. In turn, this preliminary <a href="https://cryptoslate.com/tokenized-funds-get-preliminary-approval-to-be-used-as-collateral-in-the-us/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">approval</a> could enable traditional financial markets to incorporate blockchain-based securities into their daily operating procedures, subject to US regulatory margin policies. 
Tokenized shares will be used as collateral for trading and is likely to consolidate financial operations with improved capital efficiency. Should these recommendations receive wider approval from the full committee, we may see tokenized collateral go live across markets later this year.

<h2 id="b-key-players-in-the-tokenized-treasury-market-b">Key Players in the Tokenized Treasury Market</h2> 
Two of the pioneers here are BlackRock, and its BUIDL tokenized US treasury fund and Franklin Templeton, which is FOBXX. According to Rwa, Xyz data, BUIDL, the tokenized funds sector leader, leads with more than $518 million in assets and FOBXX assets with $435 million. The two combined funds amount to nearly half of the $2.3 billion tokenized US treasuries. 
Other listed members of the subcommittee include personnel from major financial institutions, including Citadel, Bank of New York Mellon and Bloomberg LP. The announcement also highlights the increasing intrigue by leading financial institutions in Blockchain, which represents another layer of regulatory and reputation strength for tokenized funds as an innovative asset class.

Furthermore, the increasing acceptance of tokenized funds is also luring decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms. A Next Generation DeFi Application, Aave proposes the underlying basis for their Stablecoin, GHO, to use Tokenized Assets. The concept proposed that tokenized fund shares could be used, an example being BUIDL and backed by the security of GHO’s price pegged against the US dollar. 
As the proposal from Aave stands, there are two advantages: using tokenized funds as the underlying assets to diversify the backing of GHO and, at the same time, enabling stablecoin holders to receive revenue by holding BUIDL shares. It is a landmark development in the way traditional finance modules are integrated with blockchain technology on DeFi platforms, leading to more resilient financial networks.

It is also reported that Ethena Labs said it was working on its own stablecoin, UStb—another tokenized fund share stablecoin that will be fully collateralized with BUIDL. The aim of the new stablecoin is to offer a more stable option for contracts than Kosmos’s existing USDe, which has its own varying funding rates. 
<h2 id="b-conclusion-the-future-of-tokenized-fund-adoption-b">Conclusion: The Future of Tokenized Fund Adoption&nbsp;</h2> 
The campaign for the adoption of tokenized funds has come to unify the blockchain and traditional finance sectors. With the preliminary approval by the CFTC panel, a greater, wider and clearer path opens for tokenized assets. Not only will capital efficiency be enhanced, but brand new avenues for integrating real-world assets will also be provided for DeFi platforms. 
A forward step towards growth has been taken; tokenized funds like BUIDL and FOBXX could see wider use across financial markets.&nbsp; As financial institutions increasingly explore the benefits of blockchain technology, turning points are reached in the future of the sector.
