strategic launchPowered by Securitize’s compliant tokenization platform and Wormhole, adds one of the most highly regulated digital assets to Binance’s thriving financial ecosystem.
This strategic move comes as the real-world asset has shown tremendous traction, with its value rising 6% to over $36 billion last month.
BUILD’s debut reflects the convergence of blockchain and traditional finance.
BlackRock is a leading asset manager and is now providing trust, foundation, and compliance to BNB Chain, a platform renowned for its accessibility, low fees, and fast speed.
Commenting on today’s arrival, BNB Chain Head of Business Development Sarah Song said:
BNB Chain is designed for scalable, affordable, and secure financial applications, and we are excited to introduce BUILD to the ecosystem. BUILD transforms real-world assets into programmable financial instruments, enabling an entirely new type of on-chain investment strategy.
Meanwhile, the development introduces a new share class to the Binance ecosystem, providing eligible investors with access to tokenized US dollar yields in a blockchain setting.
BlackRock’s tokenized assets also gain new utility. Binance now accepts BUILD as collateral.
This allows professional traders and institutions to seamlessly deploy cash without giving up exposure to government bond-linked RWAs.
The use case highlights broader changes in the way on-chain systems integrate real-world assets.
These products are evolving from static representations to practical tools that can operate across DeFi and TradFi environments.
Take advantage of Securitize’s compliance infrastructure
Securitize, a regulated tokenization company boasting over $4 billion in tokenized assets under management (AUM), is supporting BlackRock’s expansion of its BNB chain.
Securitize handles everything from fund management to digital transaction services.
This allows customers to access enterprise-level RWA within a regulated framework.
At the same time, BUILD opens up new use cases not previously present for physical tokenized assets.
According to Securitize CEO Carlos Domingo:
Extending BUILD to the BNB chain and collateralizing it on the Binance exchange further expands accessibility and strengthens our mission to bring regulated real-world assets to the chain while unlocking new forms of utility that were previously inaccessible.
