In a rather unsurprising twist, BlackRock has filed with the SEC, announcing their latest grand plan to tie their monumental $150 billion institutional fund to the ethereal world of blockchain technology. Yes, you heard it right. A mere $3 million gets you into the exclusive club where your ownership exists not in a boring old ledger, but on the oh-so-modern blockchain, lovingly managed by BNY Mellon. At least someone has to do the hard work, right?
As for which blockchain network will be the lucky recipient of this grand venture? Well, BlackRock is playing it coy—though, considering their past flirtations with Ethereum, it’s safe to assume that’s where the magic happens. Don’t get too excited; it’s not your average meme coin blockchain. These things are for the serious folks who can keep their attention span on ultra-short-term U.S. government debt (talk about excitement, right?).
And just to keep things extra exclusive, the minimum buy-in is a cool $3 million. But fear not, dear reader—this isn’t about your average 30-year government bonds. Oh no, this focuses on ultra-short-term debt, with maturities as thrilling as a two-month vacation. How exciting, eh?
Let’s not forget, this isn’t BlackRock’s first dip into the digital asset pool. After their Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs proved wildly popular (because who wouldn’t want to gamble on digital currency volatility?), they’re doubling down. The BUIDL fund, which is now sitting on over $2.5 billion in tokenized assets, is moving across several major blockchains. Not just Ethereum, mind you. Solana and Avalanche are also in the mix. Because, well, why not throw in a few more names for good measure?
Of course, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink—whose optimism is as infectious as it is unquestionable—has long argued that tokenization will be the holy grail of finance. It’s the panacea that will eliminate barriers, reduce friction, and make those sweet high-yield investments available to the masses. Well, the masses who can cough up $3 million and who enjoy the thrill of two-month debt, that is. But hey, who wouldn’t want a slice of the blockchain pie?
