Treasuries & bonds
Tokenized money-market and government-bond funds — for example US Treasuries. Considered the most conservative RWA category: the yield roughly follows central-bank rates. Many products target institutional buyers, so check the access requirements per platform.

Frequently asked questions
Are tokenized treasuries as safe as buying treasuries at a bank?
The underlying bonds are the same, but you add layers: the issuer, the fund structure and the blockchain. A safe underlying does not mean the product has no risk.
Why do many products require institutional or qualified investors?
Many issuers register their funds only for certain investor groups per country. Retail-accessible alternatives exist — use the 'Retail-buyable only' filter.
How does the yield follow interest rates?
The funds hold short-term government paper; when central-bank rates change, the token yield follows within weeks.
