Franklin Templeton’s BENJI suite, representing the Franklin OnChain U.S. Government Money Fund (FOBXX), has reached $1.98 billion in assets across nine different blockchains. Launched in April 2021, this initiative stands as one of the longest-running regulated tokenized fund experiments in the public blockchain market. While the fund has expanded its institutional reach to networks like Ethereum, Base, and Solana, Stellar remains the primary anchor for the project. Data indicates that 95% of the fund's 1,023 distinct holders are concentrated on the Stellar network, which continues to lead in RWA inflows. The BENJI token maintains a $1.00 NAV and provides investors with exposure to government securities, cash, and repurchase agreements. This multi-chain strategy highlights a growing trend in tokenized finance where asset value is distributed across various chains while user activity remains concentrated on specific, reliable networks. The success of the BENJI platform underscores the increasing institutional adoption of regulated, onchain money-market products.
