On November 13, BlackRock, the world’s largest asset management company, launched its BUIDL fund on the Aptos blockchain. This marks the first non-EVM chain where BlackRock has launched a fund. Aptos was chosen due to its high-performance capabilities in the financial sector, as well as the support from other major players like Aave, Franklin Templeton, and Bitwise.
This move is expected to bring more liquidity, wider adoption, and increased DeFi opportunities for Aptos users. Investors who choose to purchase BUIDL on Aptos will benefit from increased credibility, reliability, and exclusive incentives.
