BlackRock's BUIDL and peers sit behind a stack most people never see: qualified custodians, transfer agents, whitelisted wallets, and dual-control signing.
Tokenized asset collapses rarely start with the asset. They start when an oracle reports a stale NAV or a price feed stops updating, and DeFi keeps lending against yesterday's number.
