BUIDL paid more than $10 million in dividends in May, marking its highest monthly payout to date.

BUIDL Tops $43.4M in Dividends Since Launch

BUIDL, or the Blackrock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund, is an asset manager’s first tokenized money market fund, created in partnership with Securitize. The fund brings traditional money market exposure—U.S. Treasury bills, cash, and repurchase agreements—onto public blockchains, allowing these assets to be represented and traded as tokens.

The fund issues tokens with a whitelist mechanism to ensure regulatory compliance and operates on several blockchains including Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Aptos. Investors in BUIDL receive daily interest based on yields from the fund’s underlying assets.

Dividends are paid every day, enabling investors to redeploy capital immediately. The May total of more than $10 million is the first time a tokenized treasury fund has exceeded that threshold in a single month. Dividends for May were distributed across seven blockchains, with Ethereum accounting for $9,370,969 of the total.

Aptos generated $187,734, Avalanche $185,708, Polygon $104,889, Arbitrum $102,000, Optimism $85,339 and Solana $70,593. This chain-by-chain breakdown underscores Ethereum’s dominance, but other networks are seeing growing participation. Securitize serves as the tokenization platform and transfer agent for BUIDL, handling compliance, investor onboarding, and whitelist management.

Only qualified purchasers—accredited individuals and institutional investors who meet strict financial requirements—can invest, with minimums set at $5 million for individuals and $25 million for institutions. Investors transact in U.S. dollars and must pass KYC and AML checks before being whitelisted. Assets are custodied by Anchorage, Bitgo, Coinbase and Fireblocks, with BNY Mellon acting as asset custodian.

Since its launch, BUIDL has distributed more than $43.4 million in dividends, highlighting growing demand for institutional-grade, onchain yield products. Daily distributions and near real-time returns illustrate the benefits of tokenization for capital deployment. At press time, BUIDL reigns as the largest tokenized money market fund, sporting a $2.91 billion valuation.

While it’s the largest, BUIDL operates in a competitive arena of tokenized money market funds, sharing the field with Franklin Templeton’s BENJI, Superstate’s USTB, Ondo’s USDY and OUSG, as well as Circle’s USYC.
