Crypto: Multiliquid, Metalayer Launch Instant Redemption Backstop For Rwas...
The new facility allows institutions to redeem tokenized real-world assets into stablecoins instantly, addressing a key liquidity bottleneck in onchain markets.
Multiliquid and Metalayer Ventures have launched an institutional liquidity facility to provide instant redemptions for tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) on Solana.
The facility allows holders of tokenized assets to convert positions into stablecoins instantly. The vehicle is raised and managed by Metalayer Ventures, with infrastructure and market support provided by Uniform Labs, the developer behind the Multiliquid protocol, according to an announcement shared with Cointelegraph.
“Traditional finance has repo markets, prime brokerage and overnight lending facilities. Tokenized markets have had nothing comparable, until now,” said Will Beeson, founder and CEO at Uniform Labs. “This is the liquidity infrastructure that institutional RWA markets will require at scale.”
Last year, the Bank for International Settlements warned that tokenized money market funds face liquidity mismatches that could amplify stress during periods of elevated redemption demand.

Metalayer’s facility functions as a standing buyer of tokenized RWAs, purchasing assets at a dynamic discount to net asset value.
Metalayer Ventures supplies and manages the capital backing redemptions, while Multiliquid provides the smart contract infrastructure used for pricing, compliance enforcement and settlement.
The vehicle will initially support tokenized assets issued by companies including VanEck, Janus Henderson and Fasanara, covering tokenized Treasury funds and select alternative investment products.
