BlackRock and Binance have teamed up to bring the BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL) to BNB Chain, marking another step forward in the growth of tokenized real-world assets on major blockchain networks. The move extends access to what is currently the largest tokenized Treasury fund in the market, holding more than $2.5 billion in capital.
Starting Friday, Binance users can also use BUIDL as off-exchange collateral, giving institutional and advanced traders a new way to manage liquidity while maintaining exposure to U.S. Treasury-backed digital assets.
In a joint statement, the companies said the expansion strengthens BUIDL’s position as a “foundational building block of on-chain finance,” offering users more efficient capital deployment without sacrificing the stability of a dollar-pegged instrument.
Catherine Chen, Head of VIP & Institutional at Binance, noted that BUIDL is being integrated with the exchange’s triparty banking agents and crypto-native custody partner Ceffu. Triparty agents typically help coordinate short-term, secured funding between trading counterparties.
“Our institutional clients have asked for more interest-bearing stable assets they can hold as collateral while actively trading,” Chen said.
Issued by Securitize, BUIDL is already available on Ethereum, several Layer-1 networks including Solana, Aptos, and Avalanche, and Ethereum scaling solutions like Polygon, Arbitrum, and Optimism. The addition of BNB Chain broadens reach at a time when the network is experiencing renewed momentum.
BNB Chain has seen strong growth throughout the year, fueled by rising activity on platforms like Aster, a fast-growing derivatives venue, and deeper integrations with Binance Wallet and Binance Alpha. Real-world asset issuer Ondo Finance is among the latest major players to build on the chain.
