#Binance Bytes is an initiative by the Research team to provide a quick round-up of the week. Highlights: 1/ BlackRock's IBIT #ETF now holds over US$33B in assets, exceeding its gold ETF, IAU. This milestone is remarkable as IBIT launched just 10 months ago, compared to IAU, trading since 2005. The surge follows a US$1.1B inflow on Nov 7, driven by optimism after Trump's re-election. 2/ Tether.io announced the launch of hadron_tether, a platform simplifying tokenization of various assets, including stocks, bonds, stablecoins, and loyalty points. Hadron aims to make tokenization more accessible with tools for compliance, security, and lifecycle management. 3/ The Reserve Bank of Australia (#RBA) and the Digital Finance Cooperative Research Centre (#DFCRC) released a consultation paper for Project Acacia, seeking industry feedback on the use of digital money and infrastructure to support wholesale tokenized asset markets in Australia.
