“🚀 BlackRock Taps Avalanche ($AVAX) for RWA Tokenization Pilot—What It Means for DeFi & Institutional Adoption”
🚀 BlackRock Launches BUIDL Token on Avalanche — A Game‑Changer for RWA & Institutional DeFi
🔹 What’s happening?
BlackRock has expanded its USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL)—the world’s largest tokenized U.S. Treasury fund—onto the Avalanche network via Securitize
🔹 Why Avalanche?
Avalanche offers ultra-low fees (just 20 bps vs 50 bps on Ethereum/Arbitrum), high throughput, sub‑second finality, and customizability—making it ideal for real-world asset (RWA) tokenization at scale
🔹 Why it matters:
1. BUIDL brings daily yield in US Treasuries with transparent on‑chain accessibility.
2. Avalanche is rapidly becoming the go-to blockchain for institutional RWAs, used by firms like Franklin Templeton, Citi, and others  .
3. This move broadens institutional DeFi access, boosts composability, and underscores next-level TradFi–DeFi convergence.
