TREE NEWS update: Franklin Templeton received a no-objection position from the SEC, allowing its $2.6 billion tokenized money market fund BENJI to be used in ETFs and mutual funds. This marks a significant regulatory endorsement for RWA tokenization, bridging traditional finance with blockchain-based assets.
Franklin Templeton Gets SEC No-Objection for $2.6B BENJI in ETFs/Mutual Funds
The significance is less about BENJI's size than about the regulatory door it opens: a tokenized money market fund becoming eligible collateral inside ETFs and mutual funds moves on-chain assets from pilot to portfolio plumbing. That affects fund managers and transfer agents as much as crypto-native issuers, since it validates a structure others can copy. The open question is whether this no-objection becomes a repeatable path for other tokenized funds, or remains a one-off accommodation tied to this issuer.
