Tokenization's value is shifting from distribution to programmable collateral, and the design work around each token is what makes that layer safe to use.
Marketed as 24/7, most tokenized Treasuries actually settle T+1 with minimums and gates. Here's what BUIDL, OUSG, USDY, and USYC can and can't do.
Reserve rules, issuer practice and BIS evidence align around a measurable short-term funding channel, not automatic demand for 10- to 30-year bonds.
