The post Securitize to Launch Institutional Assets on Plume’s Nest Protocol appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The deployment aims to connect tokenized funds with Plume’s RWA investors. Plume – a blockchain focused on real-world asset finance (RWAfi) with $159 million in total value locked – announced Thursday that tokenization platform Securitize will deploy institutional-grade assets on its Nest staking protocol. Nest currently holds over $39.5 million in distributed assets, down nearly 30% over the past month, according to RWAxyz. The upcoming deployment will connect Securitize’s tokenized assets with Plume’s network of roughly 280,000 RWA investors, according to a press release viewed by The Defiant. Securitize also tokenized BlackRock’s BUIDL fund – the largest RWA product with over $2.5 billion in assets. The deployment onto Nest will start with Hamilton Lane funds and expand throughout 2026 to include additional issuers and asset classes. The fund is targeting $100 million in capital, the release noted. The move highlights how RWA and decentralized finance (DeFi) projects are increasingly exploring compliant ways to bring traditional assets on-chain for trading, staking, and other DeFi use cases. As part of the initiative, Solv Protocol, a Bitcoin finance platform with over $2.8 billion in assets, will invest up to $10 million in Plume’s RWA vaults. Users can trade and stake these assets on Plume, which is backed by Apollo Global Management, while keeping them under Securitize’s regulated framework. “Bitcoin’s role is becoming the foundation for real, yield-bearing capital markets,” said Ryan Chow, co-founder and CEO of Solv Protocol. “As regulated on-chain markets emerge, Bitcoin will underpin a new generation of yield, credit, and liquidity infrastructure, where demand for yield-bearing Bitcoin with RWA-backed yields replaces passive treasuries as the next phase of institutional adoption.” The deployment will also utilize Bluprynt’s Know-Your-Issuer (KYI) system to verify assets and issuers. The move comes a little over a month after Plume announced it would be acquiring Dinero, the… The post Securitize to Launch Institutional Assets on Plume’s Nest Protocol appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
