The BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL) will have its shares made available for onchain trading, aiming to bridge the gap between TradFi and DeFi, and provide BUIDL holders with additional liquidity options.
The integration is enabled by Uniswap Labs, core contributor to the Uniswap Protocol, via its UniswapX technology, in addition to tokenisation platform Securitize.
BUIDL investors participating through UniswapX’s request for quote (RFQ) framework will have their trades facilitated by Securitize Markets, with the automated system identifying the most competitive quote, and settling the trade atomically onchain.
Quotes can only be provided by pre-approved market participants — including Flowdesk, Tokka Labs, and Wintermute — with those utilising the RFQ framework pre-qualified and whitelisted through Securitize.
Commenting on the integration, Hayden Adams, Uniswap Labs founder and CEO, says: “Enabling BUIDL on UniswapX with BlackRock and Securitize supercharges our mission by creating efficient markets, better liquidity, and faster settlement.”
CEO of Securitize, Carlo Domingo, adds: “For the first time institutions and whitelisted investors can access technology from a leader in the decentralised finance space to trade tokenised real-world assets like BUIDL with self-custody.”
Roberts Mitchnick, global head of digital assets at BlackRock, believes the collaboration “is a notable step in the convergence of tokenised assets with decentralised finance”.
BlackRock has also made an investment within the Uniswap ecosystem, according to the companies.
