    Tempo plans to support BlackRock's new GENIUS-compliant money market fund, BRSRV. BRSRV is a proposed U.S. government money market fund with a blockchain-based share class. The fund intends to operate so its OnChain Shares are eligible reserve assets for permitted payment stablecoin issuers under the GENIUS Act. For eligible institutions, BRSRV will enable them to bring reserve management onto Tempo's always-on, interoperable onchain rails.

    BlackRock's USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL) is now available on Tempo. BUIDL is BlackRock's flagship tokenized short-term treasury fund, giving qualified investors exposure to U.S. dollar yield backed by cash, U.S. Treasury bills, and repurchase agreements. Its availability on Tempo is supported by Securitize's tokenization and transfer agent infrastructure, with daily onchain valuation and interest accrual supported by RedStone oracle feeds. For companies building wallets, treasury products, and global money movement, this means customers can move idle stablecoin balances into yield-bearing instruments without leaving their onchain workflows.

    New Research from Tempo: How tokenization can create more liquidity in markets - through the right tradeoffs Broadridge's DLR settled $7.5 trillion of tokenized repo in June. $357bn a day, up 68% year on year. Sub-second finality, privacy strong enough that banks run real funding books on it, the largest institutional platform for settling tokenized real assets by some distance. The technology works. That was the open question five years ago and it is closed. But what about the cash leg? It settles repo, on that platform, and nothing else. You don't have collateral mobility in today's marketplace. Liquidity gets stuck, just in different silos. We've seen this before through multiple cycles. DTC immobilized paper certificates after the 1960s paperwork crisis. CLS closed the FX timing gap after Herstatt. Tri-party repo freed collateral stuck in bilateral silos. Each fix worked. Each one seeded the next bottleneck. But today we have a new bottleneck, even with tokenization. Watch a treasurer move one dollar from a repo platform to an FX venue to a corporate payout: three cash instruments, three reconciliation paths, three operating models. They're trying to settle the same dollar, but it is re-issued at every hop. Public chains went the other way. You have to route funds across rollups, swap stablecoins, deploy into a strategy on another chain, all inside one transaction, which can be slow, expensive and involve smart contract risk. As we saw with the KelpDAO exploit in April, Aave lost $6bn of deposits to withdrawals without a single Aave contract being touched. Mobility bought with a shared failure surface. The choice between privacy and mobility came from where the old chains drew their boundaries, not from anything structural. Separate execution from settlement and it dissolves. Private execution environments run as parallel chains, so amounts and counterparties stay invisible. Funds sit in contracts on a shared mainnet, so liquidity stays pooled across venues. Privacy at one layer, mobility at the other. They stop competing. That's a completely different question to put to a vendor. Speed is table stakes. Privacy ships from several vendors now. What separates the next generation of settlement infrastructure from the last decade of silos is whether the same dollar can clear a repo trade, fund a cross-border payment and post margin at a derivatives venue without being re-issued each time. Answer yes and cash is first class. Answer no and you have built a new silo at a new layer, with better latency. "Creating More Liquidity Mobility in Markets" is below. History, the trade-offs in current institutional DLT designs, and the architecture that resolves them.

    Modern blockchains allow rebuilding financial infrastructure onchain without sacrificing execution speed, privacy, or capital mobility. Our latest research from the Tempo team explains how. Give it a read! 👇🏻

    Financial institutions hold separate pools of liquidity across disconnected systems. That trapped liquidity costs an estimated $120 billion a year. Public chains make money more mobile, but liquidity fragments across networks. Private systems preserve confidentiality, but keep cash inside a single market or platform. In our new research report, Creating More Liquidity Mobility in Markets, we explore an architecture that pairs private execution with shared settlement. Transaction details remain private while the same pool of money can clear a repo trade, fund a cross-border payment, post margin, or settle a tokenized security. Get the full report in the comments.

    Fungible liquidity is the backbone of efficient markets. The promise of blockchain has always been that a corporate, buy-side firm, or funding desk can re-use the same piece of liquidity across use cases. In practice, public chains gave up privacy and private chains trapped the cash leg. That trade-off is a design choice, not a structural one. New Tempo research on how institutions and FMIs get both (link in comments)
