Securitize Expands DeFi Reach Through Plume Partnership
Tokenization firm Securitize is partnering with Plume to bring institutional-grade assets on-chain via Plume’s Nest staking protocol, marking a significant expansion of its DeFi footprint.
The collaboration links Securitize’s tokenized funds, supported by BlackRock and Morgan Stanley, to Plume’s network of more than 280,000 real-world asset (RWA) holders—one of the largest on-chain RWA communities globally. This enables Securitize’s assets to trade, move, and earn yield at scale, all under its fully regulated and auditable framework.
Plume’s Nest protocol allows investors to manage tokenized assets in a compliant, composable DeFi ecosystem, enhanced by Bluprynt’s Know-Your-Issuer verification for added transparency and trust.
“Through Plume, we’re connecting institutional-grade assets to a global community of on-chain RWA holders,” said Carlos Domingo, Co-Founder and CEO of Securitize. Teddy Pornprinya, Plume’s co-founder, added, “Securitize sets the gold standard in compliant issuance, and Plume delivers the liquidity, distribution, and composability that bring these assets to life in DeFi.”
The rollout starts with Hamilton Lane funds and aims to reach $100 million in capital by 2026. Bitcoin finance platform Solv plans to invest up to $10 million in Plume’s RWA vaults, expanding BTC-based yield offerings.
Ryan Chow, CEO of Solv Protocol, noted, “As regulated on-chain markets grow, Bitcoin will underpin the next generation of yield, credit, and liquidity infrastructure, replacing passive treasuries with yield-bearing BTC tied to real-world assets.”
