#blackRock DeFi Conquest
The Giant Allies with #uniswap to Bring the U.S. Treasury to Decentralized Protocols
The border between #WallStreet and the crypto ecosystem has just been erased.
BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, has announced the integration of its tokenized fund #BUIDL into Uniswap, the leading decentralized exchange (DEX) platform. This move marks the beginning of a new era where real-world assets (RWA) and smart contracts merge at an institutional scale.
BUIDL enters the Liquidity "Pool": The BUIDL token, backed by the U.S. Treasury and valued at $1.8 billion, will be traded on Uniswap. This allows for instant settlements and a capital efficiency that traditional markets simply cannot match.
BlackRock bets on the UNI token: In an unprecedented move, BlackRock will purchase an undisclosed amount of #UNI (the governance token of Uniswap), validating not only the platform's technology but also its economic ecosystem.
"VIP" and Controlled Access: Not just anyone will be able to operate yet. Through Securitize, a "whitelist" will be implemented so that only institutions and qualified buyers (with assets exceeding $5 million) can participate, meeting regulatory standards.
From "Degens" to Institutions: The collaboration unites two opposing worlds: the luxury offices of BlackRock in Hudson Yards and the avant-garde environment of Uniswap in SoHo. It is a real-world test case for future migration of stocks and other traditional assets to the blockchain.
Synergy with Stablecoins: The integration will be carried out through UniswapX, seeking total interoperability between yield-generating funds (like BUIDL) and stablecoins, optimizing the use of collateral in the digital market.
