BlackRock unlocks $100 million 24/7 stablecoin liquidity for BUIDL fund holders

BlackRock’s tokenized Treasury fund, BUIDL, now has access to a new $100 million liquidity facility. This service enables eligible institutional investors to exchange shares of the BUIDL fund for stablecoins at any time, including weekends, overcoming a major hurdle for blockchain-based financial products constrained by legacy banking hours. The facility operates through Securitize, a platform specializing in tokenizing real-world assets, and is supported by Ethena Labs. This arrangement allows institutions to seamlessly convert holdings in BlackRock’s USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL) into supported stablecoins such as USDC. This initiative responds to a key challenge in tokenized finance: while blockchain assets can move around the clock, liquidity is often bottlenecked by traditional fund redemption and settlement processes that only operate during business hours.
