Midas Launches DeFi Composable Tokenized Treasury Product - Unchained
Real-world asset tokenization platform Midas has launched a tokenized U.S. Treasury bill product on the Algorand blockchain.
The first atomic swap using the product, named mTBILL, on Algorand took place on Tuesday, with $2 million in USDC exchanged for mTBILL tokens. The transaction was executed almost instantly, with negligible fees — 0.002 ALGO, or about $0.0004 — and completed in just two seconds.
The tokenized certificate’s underlying assets are short-term U.S. Treasury exchange-traded funds — specifically BlackRock’s IB01 and BUIDL. But unlike BlackRock’s own BUIDL fund, which requires a minimum investment of $5 million, Midas’s mTBILL is structured with no minimum investment requirement, making it far more accessible to smaller investors.
