BUIDL token was introduced in mid-March and rapidly accumulated $502.8 million in tokenized treasuries within four months. This significant growth has been driven by investments from various decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols, including Ondo Finance and Mountain Protocol, which utilize BUIDL as a backing asset for their yield-generating products.

Ondo Finance’s recent purchase of additional BUIDL tokens, which back its <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/tokenized-securities-issuer-ondo-finance-expands-into-apac/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">OUSG token</a>, played a crucial role in pushing BUIDL past the $500 million mark. Ondo’s OUSG currently holds $173.7 million worth of BUIDL. Additionally, Mountain Protocol uses BUIDL to back its yield-bearing stablecoin, USDM.
The BUIDL token stands out in the tokenized treasury landscape, having overtaken Franklin OnChain U.S. Government Money Fund (BENJI) as the largest tokenized treasury fund in late April. It has maintained this top position since then, demonstrating strong and sustained demand from institutional investors.&nbsp;
Further, digital asset brokers such as FalconX and Hidden Road have also added BUIDL to their collateral assets, broadening its appeal among their networks of institutional clients.
BUIDL pledges a 1:1 ratio with the U.S. dollar, offering investors daily accrued dividends through its collaboration with Securitize. The growing interest and trust in tokenized treasury products are evident, with $1.67 billion worth of tokenized treasury funds currently on-chain, according to data from Dune Analytics and 21Shares.
However, the success of <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/blackrock-surpasses-grayscale-to-become-largest-bitcoin-etf-fund/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BlackRock’s</a> BUIDL highlights the increasing trend of real-world asset tokenization, particularly U.S. Treasuries, as financial institutions and digital asset firms seek to integrate traditional financial instruments into the blockchain ecosystem.
