Government Money Fund On Arbitrum

As reported in a press release, Franklin Templeton’s latest collaboration with the Arbitrum Foundation aims to harness the “enhanced scalability and efficiency” of Arbitrum, currently one of the largest Ethereum Layer 2 solutions by total value locked.

With $2.6 billion in deposits and a 34% market share, Arbitrum is a leader in the Layer 2 space, particularly for its high number of daily active addresses compared to its competitors.

This partnership, as reported, highlights Franklin Templeton’s efforts to “leverage blockchain technology to enhance asset management capabilities, offering clients innovative avenues for investment.”

Franklin Templeton’s @FTI_DA OnChain U.S. Government Money Fund is now available on Arbitrum!

The fund represented digitally via the BENJI token, is placed to expose investors to US government securities through a blockchain-enabled platform.

The Benji Investments platform facilitates transactions within digital wallets, promoting an integration of traditional and digital investment practices. Franklin Templeton Head of Digital Assets Roger Bayston particularly noted:

Expanding into the Arbitrum ecosystem is an important step on our journey to empower our asset management capabilities with blockchain technology. We are enthusiastic about the opportunities this will unlock for our firm and our clients.

According to the report, maintaining a stable share price of $1 and focusing primarily on government securities, FOBXX aims to deliver “considerable” returns while incorporating the “security and stability” associated with government-backed assets.

ARB Surges Nearly 10%

So far, ARB has increased 9.3% in the past 24 hours following the news. The asset trades for $0.53 at the time of writing, marking a notable surge from its lower price of $0.43 on Monday.

Interestingly, despite this notable development, ARB’s 24-hour trading volume hasn’t increased much, given the weight of the news. In the past day, this metric has only increased from roughly $270,927 to $288,552 at the time of writing.

Meet Samuel Edyme, Nickname - HIM-buktu. A web3 content writer, journalist, and aspiring trader, Edyme is as versatile as they come. With a knack for words and a nose for trends, he has penned pieces for numerous industry player, including AMBCrypto, Blockchain.News, and Blockchain Reporter, among others.

Read more

Edyme’s foray into the crypto universe is nothing short of cinematic. His journey began not with a triumphant investment, but with a scam. Yes, a Ponzi scheme that used crypto as payment roped him in. Rather than retreating, he emerged wiser and more determined, channeling his experience into over three years of insightful market analysis.

Before becoming the voice of reason in the crypto space, Edyme was the quintessential crypto degen. He aped into anything that promised a quick buck, anything ape-able, learning the ropes the hard way. These hands-on experience through major market events—like the Terra Luna crash, the wave of bankruptcies in crypto firms, the notorious FTX collapse, and even CZ’s arrest—has honed his keen sense of market dynamics.

When he isn’t crafting engaging crypto content, you’ll find Edyme backtesting charts, studying both forex and synthetic indices. His dedication to mastering the art of trading is as relentless as his pursuit of the next big story. Away from his screens, he can be found in the gym, airpods in, working out and listening to his favorite artist, NF. Or maybe he’s catching some Z’s or scrolling through Elon Musk’s very own X platform—(oops, another screen activity, my bad…)

Well, being an introvert, Edyme thrives in the digital realm, preferring online interaction over offline encounters—(don’t judge, that’s just how he is built). His determination is quite unwavering to be honest, and he embodies the philosophy of continuous improvement, or “kaizen,” striving to be 1% better every day. His mantras, “God knows best” and “Everything is still on track,” reflect his resilient outlook and how he lives his life.

In a nutshell, Samuel Edyme was born efficient, driven by ambition, and perhaps a touch fierce. He’s neither artistic nor unrealistic, and certainly not chauvinistic. Think of him as Bruce Willis in a train wreck—unflappable. Edyme is like trading in your car for a jet—bold. He’s the guy who’d ask his boss for a pay cut just to prove a point—(uhhh…). He is like watching your kid take his first steps. Imagine Bill Gates struggling with rent—okay, maybe that’s a stretch, but you get the idea, yeah. Unbelievable? Yes. Inconceivable? Perhaps.

Edyme sees himself as a fairly reasonable guy, albeit a bit stubborn. Normal to you is not to him. He is not the one to take the easy road, and why would he? That’s just not the way he roll. He has these favorite lyrics from NF’s “Clouds” that resonate deeply with him: “What you think's probably unfeasible, I've done already a hundredfold.”

PS—Edyme is HIM. HIM-buktu. Him-mulation. Him-Kardashian. Himon and Pumba. He even had his DNA tested, and guess what? He’s 100% Him-alayan. Screw it, he ate the opp.
