A release titled, "DigiFT Unlocks On-​Chain Access to Leading U.​S Treasury Money Market Fund," tells us, "DigiFT, a Monetary Authority of Singapore-​licensed digital asset exchange, ... launched tokenized access to interests in a U.​S. Treasury money market fund managed by Fidelity Investments. The listing gives institutional and accredited investors on-​chain access to interests in the fund.... Tokenized Treasury and money market instruments already represent the largest single category of tokenized real-​world assets on public blockchains, reflecting sustained institutional demand for regulated, short-​duration, high-​quality instruments on-​chain. The fund'​s holdings -- cash and short-​dated U.​S. Treasuries -- meet the reserve-​asset criteria the United States set for its own payment stablecoin issuers under the GENIUS Act." Cynthia Lo Bessette, Head of Digital Asset Management at Fidelity Investments, comments, "Tokenization has the potential to expand access to investment products while enabling new forms of liquidity, collateral utility, and investment innovation through its programmable infrastructure. In collaboration with DigiFT, we'​re furthering how institutional and accredited investors can access, use, and integrate on-​chain investment products within emerging digital financial ecosystems." A separate announcement, "Fipto partners with Spiko to let treasurers earn a return on idle treasury balances," explains, "Fipto, the modern infrastructure for B2B payments and treasury powered by stablecoins, ... announced a partnership with Spiko to let clients put idle balances to work in regulated UCITS funds, from EUR balances and directly from EURC and USDC stablecoin balances. The investment service is provided by Spiko Finance SAS, an investment firm authorised by the ACPR." See also the press release, "Spiko Raises $​90M Series B Led by NEA to Make Yield Universal," which mentions, "Money market funds have existed for decades and offer an efficient way to earn returns on cash. But outside the United States, they have never gone mainstream. Spiko bridges that gap. It designs its own range of regulated cash funds, from intraday liquidity to term products. Businesses access them through a desktop and mobile app, and any company or financial platform can embed them into its own product via an API. Clients include startups and scale-​ups, research institutes, public institutions, VC funds, and medical practices, with funds available in euros, dollars, sterling, and Swiss francs.... Spiko issues its funds onchain and now ranks ahead of BlackRock and Franklin Templeton as the largest issuer of tokenized cash funds. Onchain funds run on the same rails as stablecoins and smart contracts, which makes cash programmable."
