Recently, rumors have been circulating that BlackRock is deploying its DeFi-oriented strategy, BUIDL, on Avalanche, with even a deployed contract spotted.

While the accuracy of these rumors has yet to be officially confirmed, I believe Avalanche’s compliance and solid relationship with U.S. regulations make this possibility even more plausible.

Last year, the SEC intensified its crackdown on Binance by classifying 67 tokens listed on BinanceUS as securities. This list included major projects like Solana, Polygon, ATOM, ADA, and BNB, but notably, AVAX was absent.

@emingunsirer’s connection with Cornell and his communication with the U.S. central bank's digital currency commission,

Franklin Templeton’s transfer of the first U.S.-based blockchain money market fund (FOBXX) onto Avalanche,

Citibank choosing Avalanche for its FX trading application to make foreign exchange transactions more efficient,

JPMorgan Chase working with Avalanche to facilitate the management and tokenization of alternative portfolio assets.

None of these are coincidences. What Avalanche is building is on track to become one of the most significant bridges in the world, and so far, everything in RWA (Real-World Assets) is going smoothly.
