Securitize, VanEck expand VBILL to Aave RWA platform Horizon
Tokenization platform Securitize has announced the expansion of asset manager VanEck’s tokenized fund to Aave’s recently launched real-world assets platform.
- Securitize has teamed up with VanEck to bring the VBILL tokenized treasury fund onchain.
- VBILL is now on Aave’s real world assets platform Horizon.
- Institutions can now tap into the tokenized asset as collateral.
On November 6, Securitize and VanEck said the VanEck Treasury Fund, VBILL is now on Horizon, a RWA market that went live on August 27, 2025.
Horizon has seen its RWA footprint expand rapidly since launch, with over $500 million in market onchain. Now the Aave v3.3 platform brings its institutional-grade compliance and hybrid finance to VBILL.
VBILL as collateral on Horizon
Horizon now supports VBILL as a collateral asset. The integration is powered by Chainlink (LINK) and will give qualified institutional investors the opportunity to borrow stablecoins against their VBILL holdings. This way, investors can turn their tokenized Treasury holdings into onchain collateral.
At the core of this move is the desire to bring the benefits of decentralized finance to traditional finance, the firms said.
The integration is another step toward the broader milestone of unlocking institutional DeFi.
Over the past several months, multiple industry players have expanded tokenized assets on-chain, with the overall onchain RWA rising to over $35 billion.
However, forecasts are that the sector will see a sharp spike in the next few years. Tokenized stocks, Treasuries, private credit and alternative funds are all recording huge leaps.
