Introduction
Plume is the first RWAfi L1 EVM network focused on crypto natives. We build infrastructure to make it easy to connect the real world and the crypto markets. We go against the traditional view of RWAs by changing its definition – it’s not just TradFi onchain but instead building net new crypto-first RWA use cases to the market including things like RWA derivatives/speculation, borrow/lend, yield farming, and more.
Plume, a layer 1 blockchain for real-world asset finance, plans to launch a new payment finance product offering real yield use cases powered by the PayPal USD stablecoin. The PayPal USD ( PYUSD )-powered PayFi Vault, dubbed nPAYFI, will go live on Plume Network’s yield streaming platform Nest. PYUSD is currently the eighth-largest stablecoin with a market cap of over $759 million. According to an announcement , Plume aims to bring payment financing on-chain through this new vault. With stablecoins playing a major role in the real-world asset market, Plume expects to leverage PayPal USD as a liquidity layer. Using the U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin will not only enhance global accessibility but also provide yield-generating opportunities. nPAYFI will allow users to tap into yield from RWA payment inflows, including invoices, receivables and payment obligations. According to Plume’s blog post, nPAYFI will also support inventory management, global trade, and commerce. The yield generated will allow businesses to redeploy freed-up capital into other operations. “RWA-backed stablecoins have evolved beyond just a medium of exchange; they are becoming the backbone of short-term financing solutions,” Teddy Pornprinya, co-founder of Plume, said. “The new PayFi Vault on Nest is a major step toward offering yield from the full potential of onchain payment financing, offering faster settlements, lower costs, and greater financial inclusion.” Plume’s layer 1 blockchain supports more than 180 protocols and has a $25 million ecosystem fund for early-stage real-world asset finance projects. The project’s composable, Ethereum Virtual Machine-compatible environment allows for seamless on-chain integration and onboarding. Notable partnerships in recent months include collaborations with Music Protocol, Superstate, and Ondo Finance. Through its collaboration with Music Protocol , Plume enables the tokenized music royalties platform to bring intellectual property rights on-chain, benefiting projects focused on real estate, private credit, and other real-world assets. Plume raised $20 million in a Series A funding round in December 2024.
NEW YORK – Plume, the first L1 Chain purpose-built for Real World Asset Finance (RWAfi), today announced the upcoming launch of its PayFi Vault, powered by PYUSD, on flagship yield streaming product Nest. This brings payment financing onchain while utilizing institutional grade stablecoin backed assets. The PayFi vault will be initially backed by PYUSD, a fully reserved stablecoin designed to maintain a stable $1 USD value, backed by dollar deposits, U.S. treasuries, and cash equivalents. This foundation establishes a secure bridge between traditional payment rails and onchain financing, with plans to incorporate additional high-quality assets as the ecosystem matures, creating a diverse range of institutional-grade financing opportunities accessible to users globally. Stablecoins and Payment Financing: The Next Evolution of RWA PayFi will encapsulate everything pay. The PayFi vault will power global trade, commerce, and inventory management by providing last mile liquidity for the supply chain. This mechanism serves a huge need by allowing businesses to free up capital and optimize operations. PayFi remains a relatively untapped asset class onchain. The tokenization of PayFi solutions like invoices, receivables, and payment obligations can create sustainable yield offerings previously unavailable to users globally. Stablecoins like PYUSD serve as the perfect foundation for the innovation of PayFi onchain as they are increasingly recognized as a digital dollar standard, offering a reliable and efficient means of transferring value. With secure, fully reserved backing and seamless blockchain settlement, stablecoins provide critical infrastructure for financing mechanisms that are faster, more accessible, and cost-effective. By leveraging the stability of PYUSD as a liquidity layer, the nPAYFI Vault on Nest will extend the utility of these RWA-backed assets beyond payments, unlocking unique new use cases in yield generation from traditionally non-yield-bearing stablecoins, as well as short-duration and payment financing. Vault participants will be able to tap into returns derived from real world payment flows, with generated yield from PYUSD flowing back to depositors, while maintaining exposure to fully-backed, regulated stablecoins. The introduction of the PayFi Vault reinforces the role of the currency layer versus the financing layer in blockchain-based financial systems: Borderless financing: Enabling global access to capital without traditional banking limitations. T+0 settlement: Instant transaction finality, eliminating delays associated with conventional financing. Stablecoin-denominated loans: Financing is issued and settled in PYUSD and other stablecoins, reducing currency volatility risks. Bringing PayFi to the RWA Ecosystem The upcoming launch of the nPAYFI Vault on Nest aligns with Plume’s broader mission to bring any real world asset of value onchain. PayFi use cases represent yet another category of RWAs, and the inclusion of PYUSD and PayFi solutions naturally fall under RWAfi - as part of Plume's ecosystem, this enhances liquidity and efficiency of those assets in global markets. By introducing structured payment financing solutions using stablecoins, Plume is establishing a foundation for a more inclusive and scalable financial ecosystem. “RWA-backed stablecoins have evolved beyond just a medium of exchange; they are becoming the backbone of short-term financing solutions,” said Teddy Pornprinya, Co-founder of Plume. “The new PayFi Vault on Nest is a major step toward offering yield from the full potential of onchain payment financing, offering faster settlements, lower costs, and greater financial inclusion.” nPAYFI will also offer various upcoming financing yield opportunities through strategic partners to be announced soon - these partnerships represent just the beginning of Plume’s PayFi ecosystem expansion. As Plume continues to build infrastructure for RWAs, the PayFi Vault marks an important milestone in bringing payment financing to DeFi, leveraging stablecoins as a trusted and efficient asset class for real world financial applications. About Plume Plume is the first full-stack L1 RWA chain purpose-built for Real World Asset Finance (RWAfi), enabling the integration and adoption of real world assets through its ecosystem.

The interoperability protocol announced its partnership with Superstate on February 17, 2025. Omni Network plans to leverage Superstate’s Short Duration U.S. Government Securities Fund USTB as part of its treasury management strategy. Powered by the OMNI token, Omni Network will utilise the tokenised treasuries asset to grow its balance sheet. This strategy aims to optimise treasury management while maintaining liquidity and flexibility. Superstate's USTB, a $274 million tokenised treasuries product, offers investment exposure to short-duration U.S. Treasuries, allowing holders to efficiently manage capital and deploy idle assets to earn yields. According to Omni Network, tokenised assets like USTB are valuable because capital inefficiency and fragmentation remain key challenges in the crypto space. Omni Network will benefit from real-time liquidity, continuous pricing, and multi-chain access. The integration of USTB by Omni Network follows Superstate's expansion of multi-chain access, starting with real-world asset finance platform Plume Network. Earlier in the year, Omni Network and Plume Network announced a collaboration to develop an efficient distribution engine for real-world assets. Additionally, Omni Network has partnered with decentralised AI network Allora to leverage artificial intelligence in optimising the pricing and management of real-world assets. Superstate is an asset management firm focused on modernising investment fund infrastructure for crypto-native institutional investors. At the time of reporting, the Omni Network (OMNI) price was $4.81.
Omni Network has integrated Superstate’s tokenized U.S. Treasuries fund, adding it to its balance sheet as part of efforts to optimize treasury management. The interoperability protocol announced the partnership with Superstate on Feb. 17. Its plan is to leverage Superstate’s Short Duration U.S. Government Securities Fund USTB as part of its treasury management strategy. Omni Network, powered by the OMNI token, will use the tokenized treasuries asset to grow its balance sheet. This will help the team optimize their treasury management strategies “while maintaining liquidity and flexibility.” Superstate’s USTB, currently a $274 million tokenized treasuries product, provides investment exposure to short-duration U.S. Treasuries. The fund allows holders to manage capital efficiently, with idle assets deployed to earn yields. Capital inefficiency and fragmentation remain key challenges across the crypto space, making tokenized assets like USTB a valuable tool. Omni Network, for instance, will benefit from real-time liquidity, continuous pricing, and multi-chain access. Omni’s integration of USTB comes just days after Superstate expanded multi-chain access, starting with real-world asset finance platform Plume Network. Earlier this year, Omni Network and Plume announced a collaboration aimed at developing an efficient distribution engine for real-world assets. Additionally, Omni Network partnered with decentralized AI network Allora to leverage artificial intelligence in optimizing pricing and management of real-world assets.
Plume Network and Superstate have partnered to expand access to tokenised financial products, integrating Superstate's Short-Term U.S. Treasury Bond Fund (USTB) and Cryptocurrency Holding Fund (USCC) into Plume's (CRYPTO:PLUME) network. This collaboration allows Plume Network users to mint Superstate’s tokenised Treasury Bill and crypto carry funds directly on-chain. Superstate will leverage Plume’s network, with chain-level compliance as a key component, to drive adoption of its tokenised assets. The partnership aims to accelerate the adoption of RWAs (real-world assets) across the financial market. Plume users will gain access to USTB, a tokenised Treasury Bill (T-Bill) fund, and USCC, a crypto cash and carry fund. The partnership also allows investors to mint USTB and USCC directly on Plume, enabling new financial products and integrations within its ecosystem. Plume is honored to be named as Superstate's first multi-chain partner, powering the expansion of $USTB and $USCC onto its purpose-built chain. The partnership enhances access to institutional-grade yields through real-world asset tokenisation. "Superstate’s partnership with Plume brings institutional-grade, RWA-backed yields to the network. Investors can soon mint $USTB & $USCC natively on Plume—unlocking new integrations and products in an ecosystem designed for real world assets," Plume posted on X. Plume revealed collaborations with Google Cloud, Ondo Finance, and Chateau Capital last December amid RWA expansion. Plume also recently announced a partnership with SEDA, a Web3 oracle that allows developers to customise data feeds instead of relying on preset options. These collaborations came after Plume raised $20 million in its series A round in October. Superstate founder Robert Leshner said the company aims to bring tokenised institutional assets to all major blockchains and Plume’s specialised RWAfi chain offers a way to showcase new use cases for tokenised assets. Plume’s selection as Superstate’s first chain expansion reinforces the vision that a strong RWAfi ecosystem can drive institutional asset adoption.
Real world asset startup Plume Network has partnered with Latin American trading platform Mercado Bitcoin as part of a plan to tokenize $40 million worth of Brazilian "asset-backed securities, consumer credit, corporate debt, and accounts receivable," according to a statement released Wednesday. "The initiative creates a direct bridge between global capital and emerging market investments, providing users direct access to yield opportunities in Brazil, Latin America's largest economy," the two companies said in their statement. Mercado Bitcoin plans to leverage Plume Network's infrastructure and Layer 1 blockchain, allowing the crypto exchange to offer customers worldwide the opportunity to invest in tokenized Brazilian assets. Led by the asset classes of government securities and commodities, the overall tokenized RWA market has been steadily growing, nearly doubling over the past 12 months, according to The Block Data Dashboard . This week, the DeFi platform supported by U.S. President Donald Trump, World Liberty Financial, partnered with real-world asset tokenization firm Ondo Finance in hopes of advancing the adoption of RWAs. According to the statement, Mercado Bitcoin has 4 million users. Brazil, thanks to its large population, economy and widespread adoption of digital payments, is considered a strong growth market for digital assets. "On one hand, we’re providing small and medium-sized businesses ... with a direct path to funding through tokenization," Mercado Bitcoin's New Business Development SVP Fabrico Tota said in a statement. "On the other hand, we’re empowering local and global investors with access to innovative financial instruments that were once out of reach." Plume Network has been actively adding to its portfolio of real-world assets since raising $10 million last year in a seed funding round led by Haun Ventures. The startup then closed a $20 million Series A funding round, which included the participation of Brevan Howard Digital, Galaxy Ventures and Haun Ventures. Plume Network was originally meant to be a Layer 2 on Arbitrum Orbit, according to a spokesperson.
On February 11th, it was officially announced that Plume Network has collaborated deeply with the decentralized oracle project SEDA Protocol to promote the application of customizable data sources in cross-chain queries. Traditional on-chain data is mostly limited to preset standard data sources, but SEDA's intention-driven model breaks this limitation and achieves flexible and dynamic data queries, especially in the field of real-world assets (RWA). With the support of SEDA, the Plume ecosystem further enhances its ability to process high-frequency data, providing a broader space for the application of on-chain real-time data, especially in the fields of decentralized finance (DeFi) and asset management. In terms of innovative data applications, Plume and RwaWorld have jointly launched the first batch of on-chain data verification, which includes dynamic correlation analysis of financial assets and IP, as well as accelerated market liquidity through optimized data transmission processes. In addition, the introduction of SEDA enables data from various alternative investment fields to circulate on the chain, enhancing the popularity of emerging asset classes. Plume's goal is to provide real-time and transparent on-chain data services for more traditional and innovative fields, helping to facilitate more efficient capital flow and market development. At the same time, Plume also integrates Noves.fi Translate API, which simplifies complex on-chain transaction data through this language parsing tool. Through this integration, users can more intuitively understand the dynamics of on-chain assets and NFTs, improving the overall User Experience. Through this innovation, Plume not only optimizes the functionality of the blockchain browser, but also provides a more humanized perspective for blockchain transaction data, making complex data easier to interpret and operate.
Asset management firm Superstate has partnered with Plume Network, a real-world asset backed by major venture capital players. In a Feb. 11 announcement Plume Network described the partnership as a significant milestone for the RWA on-chain market. Superstate will use the integration to expand its U.S. Government Securities Fund and Crypto Carry Fund, making Plume the first multi-chain partner for USTB and USCC, the ticker symbols for these funds. As a result, the partnership aims to accelerate the adoption of RWAs across the financial market. “Superstate’s partnership with Plume brings institutional-grade, RWA-backed yields to the network. Investors can soon mint $USTB & $USCC natively on Plume—unlocking new integrations and products in an ecosystem designed for real world assets,” Plume posted on X. Superstate will leverage Plume’s network, with chain-level compliance as a key component, to drive adoption of its tokenized assets. Meanwhile, the collaboration provides crypto-native investors with access to Treasury bill yields and other yield-generating strategies, further expanding DeFi’s footprint in traditional finance. Plume’s RWAfi infrastructure will be critical to Superstate’s efforts to attract institutional investors to the tokenized asset market. Plume revealed several partnerships last December, including with Google Cloud , Ondo Finance and Chateau Capital amid RWA expansion. These collaborations came after Plume raised $20 million in its series A round in October.
Plume Network and Superstate have partnered as part of a plan to expand access to tokenized financial products, the two companies announced Tuesday. While providing infrastructure for Superstate, Plume Network users will gain access to Superstate’s short duration U.S. Government Securities Fund, or USTB, and Crypto Carry Fund, or USCC. USTB "offers access to short-duration Treasury Bills" and USCC "offers access to crypto basis strategies across bitcoin, ether and U.S. Treasury securities," according to the announcement. "Plume’s selection as Superstate's first chain expansion affirms our vision that a robust RWAfi (real world asset finance) ecosystem can significantly drive the adoption of institutional-grade assets," Plume Network co-founder and CEO Chris Yin said in a statement. "Superstate has proven its capability to deliver transparent yields while scaling effectively for crypto-native investors." Superstate is an asset management firm that specializes in providing investment opportunities to "crypto native institutional investors through tokenized financial products." Plume Network, a full-stack Layer 1 blockchain, has been expanding its offerings of tokenized real world assets. Last year, the RWA startup said it planned to tokenize solar assets, mineral rights and Medicaid claims. Robert Leshner, founder of Superstate, said in a statement that his company's "goal is to bring institutional-grade tokenized assets to every major blockchain." Plume Network's "unique RWAfi chain provides an opportunity to demonstrate how purpose-built infrastructure can enable great new use-cases for tokenized assets," he added.
On February 8th, Plume Network revealed its RWA (Real World Assets) strategic blueprint at the Ondo Summit, proposing a collaborative paradigm of "Robinhood 2.0" and "Wall Street 2.0", aiming to build a community-led next-generation on-chain financial ecosystem. Plume emphasized that with the promotion of GME events by Reddit retail investors as a symbol, individuals and communities are reconstructing the global Financial Marekt has the voice over. Currently, Plume has aggregated more than 180 ecological projects, transforming community purchasing power into the core driving force of on-chain asset publishing and liquidity through the Modularization toolchain and decentralized governance framework. The cooperation between Plume and Ondo is regarded as a key node in the RWA market. The two parties plan to integrate institutional asset publishing capabilities with community-driven demand networks to promote seamless access from traditional hedge funds to individual investors. Its latest roadmap proposes the concept of "RWA 2.0", which connects the asset supply side and demand side through on-chain aggregators, reduces compliance barriers, and improves transaction efficiency. Plume also disclosed that its underlying protocol will support the tokenization of multiple asset classes, covering private lending, commodities, and alternative investment fields, further expanding the application scenarios of decentralized finance. Plume's model may inject new variables into the RWA market - by strengthening community governance and tool inclusiveness, promoting the transition of the on-chain economy from institutional dominance to multilateral collaboration, this path may reshape the underlying logic of trillion-dollar real-world assets on the chain.

AMPC offers open-source, quantum-secure privacy protection tailored for the era of AI and AI agents. This development aims to enhance privacy and security in a world increasingly dominated by artificial intelligence technologies.

Wall Street Pepe (WEPE) Wall Street Pepe (WEPE) is rapidly gaining traction in the cryptocurrency market, with its presale now exceeding $68 million. The project’s momentum indicates strong investor interest, with daily fundraising averaging around $1.2 million. With only 12 days left before the presale ends, there’s speculation that all tokens might sell out sooner, within a week. The ethos behind Wall Street Pepe is to unify retail traders under the slogan “frogs strong together,” aiming to counteract the influence of market whales and manipulators. This community-driven approach seeks to create a level playing field, offering tools and insights typically reserved for institutional investors. At a presale price of $0.0003665, WEPE might be one of the last opportunities for investors to acquire tokens at what could be considered a bargain compared to post-launch valuations. With 80% of the 200 billion token supply allocated to the presale, the rapid pace at which tokens are purchased is evident from the real-time transaction feed on the project’s website. While WEPE is rooted in meme culture, it distinguishes itself by focusing on practical utility. It aims to build a decentralized trading ecosystem that empowers retail investors. This utility aspect, combined with the current positive market sentiment driven by pro-crypto regulatory news and economic factors like Bitcoin halving, positions WEPE for potential significant growth as the altcoin season looms.

Chainlink (LINK) Chainlink has taken a significant step towards enhancing transparency in the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector by launching its Chainlink Yield Index. This index aims to aggregate real-time lending rate data from various DeFi platforms, thereby improving the user experience by providing clear, accessible information on lending opportunities. This initiative is part of Chainlink’s broader strategy to support blockchain adoption and elevate user engagement in DeFi, as evidenced by their integration of low-latency market data on Scroll, which bolsters the efficiency and reliability of DeFi applications. Regarding market performance, Chainlink (LINK) has shown positive movement in the last 24 hours, with a price increase of 7.49% to $19.79. Nevertheless, the trading volume has significantly decreased by 61.55%, now at $1.07 billion. However, the price is still rising, potentially due to strong buying interest at these levels. Despite the recent price increase, the current sentiment for Chainlink price prediction is bearish, which might seem counterintuitive given the recent gains. However, this could be due to factors such as market corrections expected after a significant rise or anticipation of upcoming events that might affect LINK’s price. The Fear & Greed Index at 72 (Greed) suggests that there’s still significant investor enthusiasm, which can sometimes precede market corrections. Read More Top Crypto to Buy Now

ONDO, PLUME, OM, GFI, and ATR are gaining momentum as top RWA altcoins with strong institutional backing and price surges. If trends continue, these tokens could break key resistance levels and reach new highs in February 2025. The tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) transforms the crypto marketplace, and February 2025 will become crucial for multiple leading RWA altcoins. Digital assets demonstrate rising investor demand because they maintain robust price momentum and strength from institutional entities. ONDO Leads the Charge The RWA sector leader ONDO receives funding from dual institutions BlackRock and Morgan Stanley while expanding its position in this market. The platform stands out as one of the leading options in market competition because it combines blockchain applications with financial institutions through its platform. The market capitalization of ONDO has climbed to nearly $5 billion after its price experienced a 20% increase during the previous week. The recent market expansion demonstrates an increasing need among investors to acquire tokenized assets. Expert predictions indicate that ONDO has the potential to surpass $1.65 as its resistance level, provided its current upward trajectory maintains strength. If the token successfully breaks through the $1.93 resistance level, then it could potentially rise to $2 for its first visit since December 2024. Source Institutional Interest Fuels Growth in Emerging RWA Altcoins Since its emergence, the RWAfi sector has shown increasing demand for Plume (PLUME). The PLUME blockchain maintains eighteen million addresses while having $4 billion in available crypto assets because it works with the top RWAfi sector entities, Paxos, LayerZero, and Anchorage Digital. In December 2024, the funding round of PLUME brought in $20 million, which demonstrates positive institutional investment. The token launched nine days ago saw a 67% growth over the last six days while sustaining a 23% increase during the previous day. The market forecasts predict that the PLUME token will challenge resistance at $0.22 if its current momentum persists. A successful breakout will establish RWAfi market penetration through new historical peaks for PLUME. Source Despite its regulation-compliant features, OM managed to grow 38% through the last seven days. OM functions in compliance with real-life regulatory criteria, and its market value currently stands at approximately $4.7 billion. The current trading volume stood at $197 million during the previous 24 hours. OM continues to rise in value, strengthening its position as one of the leading RWA platforms and indicating it could cross the $5 price mark. Source Positive changes have appeared in the Goldfinch (GFI) structure. Users of the Ethereum-based lending platform managed by Andreessen Horowitz and Coinbase Ventures and Variant can give USDC loans to enterprises across the globe. The market capitalization of GFI has climbed to $40 million because its prices rose by 15% during the previous week. GFI faced technical difficulties but managed to hold onto major support zones, indicating its price may rise back up. Research analysts predict the market will rise further than $1.5 – $1.7 as the current momentum remains strong. Source The Solana-based art-focused RWA marketplace Artrade (ATR) has experienced significant growth recently. The market value increased by 34% during the last seven days, elevating the price to $48 million. Analyzing ongoing market performance, experts predict that Artrade will exceed its $0.048 resistance threshold on its way to potentially reaching $0.07. Source These RWA altcoins stand ready to generate substantial market value because institutions are acting increasingly supportive, and market interest in tokenized assets is intensifying.
