From ETH to T-Bills: How Tokenized US Treasuries Are Redefining DeFi Collateral

Over just 18 months, tokenized US Treasuries and money-market funds have grown from about $2 billion to roughly $9 billion across 60 products and 57,000 addresses, offering average seven-day yields near 3.8%. As part of a broader $19 billion real-world asset (RWA) stack on public blockchains, these tokenized T-bills now function as the de facto base collateral layer—similar to their role in the $5 trillion U.S. repo market.

Wall Street vs. Bitcoin: Why Strategy’s Massive BTC Treasury Fails the S&P 500 Test

Strategy Inc. (formerly MicroStrategy) has built a massive $56 billion Bitcoin treasury, holding over 641,000 BTC — nearly 3% of Bitcoin’s total supply — but this aggressive Bitcoin accumulation strategy is now blocking its path into the S&P 500 index. Fueled by $21 billion in equity, preferred stock, and convertible debt issued in 2025, the company transformed from a traditional software and analytics firm into a de facto leveraged Bitcoin investment vehicle.
