Franklin Templeton Extends Benji Tokenization Platform to BNB Chain

The move sets up BNB Chain access for the $731 million BENJI money fund, with further product details from a Binance collaboration expected later this year.

Overview

  • Franklin Templeton said its Benji Technology Platform is now integrated with BNB Chain to expand distribution of tokenized investment products.
  • The firm will introduce the Franklin OnChain U.S. Government Money Fund (BENJI) on BNB Chain, adding to roughly $731–732 million already tokenized across other networks.

  • Reported real‑world assets on BNB Chain total roughly $448 million to $542 million, a scale cited by the network to highlight issuer interest.
