Libeara, a company that turns assets into blockchain tokens, and FundBridge Capital, a fund management provider, have created a tokenized fund for U.S. Treasurys on a public blockchain for investors. It’s named the Delta Wellington Ultra Short Treasury On-Chain Fund, and this gives investors a digital way to invest in U.S. Treasurys.
This fund is managed on Libeara’s Delta platform. The aim is to manage subscriptions, transfers and cash-ins of the tokenized units in a clear, checkable and efficient way. At first, it will be launched on the Ethereum mainnet but it plans to be expanded to Arbitrum, Avalanche and Solana which will make it easier for crypto investors to access.
Libeara’s platform allows users to work with the tokenized units using blockchain technology, which the CEO of Libeara, Aaron Gwak, says is a big step forward. Gwak mentioned this fund gets the ‘tick’ from formal investments in USD, comparing it to the SGD Delta Fund, another blockchain-based fund for Singapore dollars.
This fund provides new chances for investors to invest in U.S. Treasurys digitally and paves the way for the use of blockchain tech in everyday finance.
The Ultra Fund merges old-school finance with blockchain tech, allowing financial institutions to use tokenization to cut costs and be more accessible. Wellington Management, a firm managing global assets, helps manage the fund in order to bring in both institutional and Web3 investors.
The director of digital assets and tokenization at Wellington Management, Mark Garabedian, thinks tokenization is at the forefront of asset management. He said FundBridge’s approach matches Wellington’s and can help clients get better access and be more efficient.
Standard Chartered Bank, a global bank based in London, will be keeping the fund safe. It sees this partnership as helping its clients get into digital assets. The bank is known for backing cryptocurrencies and its involvement in this partnership isn’t surprising considering the bank’s analyst, Geoff Kendrick, predicted Bitcoin would hit $125,000 by the end of the year.
