A compliance gate run by Securitize routes pre-qualified investors into UniswapX’s RFQ flow for 24/7 on-chain settlement of BUIDL trades.

Overview

  • Trading of BUIDL now executes via UniswapX’s automated RFQ with atomic on-chain settlement, with Flowdesk, Tokka Labs and Wintermute among whitelisted subscribers.
  • Securitize handles identity checks and whitelisting, limiting participation to qualified purchasers and approved market makers.
  • The fund represents tokenized shares of a U.S. Treasury- and cash-backed money-market product with roughly $2.1–$2.2 billion outstanding.
  • BlackRock disclosed a strategic investment in the Uniswap ecosystem and bought an undisclosed amount of UNI.
  • UNI spiked double digits on the news before partially retracing, and reported whale activity before the announcement raised unconfirmed insider-knowledge concerns.
