Arbitrum DAO announced that it will allocate 35 million $ARB to three RWA tokenized government bonds including Franklin Templeton.
Recently, Ethereum Layer 2 Arbitrum announced that its governance organization Arbitrum DAO will allocate 35 million $ARB to tokenize U.S. Treasury bonds. It is understood that the funds will be invested in Franklin Templeton's $BENJI, Spiko's $USTBL, and WisdomTree's $WTGXX. Arbitrum described this as an important day for RWA, stating that this proposal will accelerate RWA institutional adoption.
Three operators stood out from a team of more than fifty people.
According to reports, the Arbitrum DAO selected these three from a fierce competition among more than 50 TradFi and RWA applicants. This will be based on
