Plume Network: An innovative platform to drive real-world assets into the encryption world.

Plume Network is building a dedicated blockchain network for real-world assets (RWAs). Its goal is to simplify interactions with RWAs through encryption channels, making them as accessible and liquid as crypto-native assets. Plume combines RWA-Fi with DeFi, enabling users to easily lend, trade, and speculate on RWAs just like they do with crypto assets.

Chris, the co-founder and CEO of Plume, explained that RWAs require specialized infrastructure to operate efficiently on-chain. Customization is needed for issues such as permission management, compliance ( AML/KYC ), and liquidity. Existing chains like Ethereum have not been optimized for these functionalities, prompting Plume to develop its own ecosystem to support the seamless on-chain integration, governance, and execution of real-world assets.

Chris emphasized that institutions have been interacting with private blockchain networks, but are now beginning to realize the value of public blockchains. Public chains provide an open, permissionless ecosystem that can drive innovation and efficiency, making them more suitable for institutional adoption at scale. This realization is a key driving force behind Plume's integration of RWAs into the encryption ecosystem.

Plume is tokenizing tangible real-world assets such as solar farms, oil fields, and corporate bonds. For example, users can invest in solar farms that have contracts with government agencies or schools for 30 to 40 years, thereby earning stable returns. These assets provide stable returns (, such as an annualized return of 12-15% ), with earnings distributed in the form of stablecoins and governance tokens. This allows investors to obtain stable yield assets on-chain while enjoying the liquidity and flexibility of DeFi.

Chris addressed concerns about cross-chain liquidity by emphasizing advancements in bridging technology between EVM chains. These technologies make the movement of assets smoother, and liquidity fragmentation is no longer a major issue. Plume focuses on building tools to facilitate the easy flow of assets and funds across networks.

The Plume testnet has achieved great success, with over 3.5 million active wallets and more than 251 million transactions in just four weeks. The testnet has been very active, with users constantly transferring assets across chains, and over 150 protocols have been built on this network. This early success indicates that the market is very interested in Plume's RWA solution.

Unlike other projects that exist solely for the tokenization of real-world assets, Plume focuses more on RWA-Fi, which means giving these assets utility in a DeFi native way. Chris emphasizes that most RWA projects today fail to attract the interest of crypto-native users because they are too focused on traditional financial methods. Plume's strategy is to integrate RWAs into the existing DeFi ecosystem, providing users with liquidity, flexibility, and yield opportunities.

Plume is exploring innovative speculative markets based on real-world data, such as Pokémon cards, sneakers, GPUs, and even social or economic indicators like crime rates or inflation. Users can leverage these assets ( for example 10x or 50x ), providing unique speculative opportunities. This opens up new markets for encryption users, combining real-world assets with the dynamic characteristics of DeFi.

Chris explained how Plume provides yields of 10% to 30-40%, depending on the asset and risk level. For example, users can deposit stablecoins into income-generating assets such as solar farms or corporate bonds, earning stable returns paid in the form of stablecoins and tokens. Plume aims to provide higher returns than traditional financial products, offering more attractive asset staking opportunities for encryption native users.

The Plume community is very diverse, with participants from Asia, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The network attracts RWA enthusiasts and encryption traders. Plume's aggressive growth strategy includes building communities globally and closely collaborating with partners to expand the use cases of RWAs. Their focus areas include high-yield assets, active secondary markets like collectibles such as sneakers and Pokémon cards (, as well as innovative financial products for speculation.

Chris revealed that Plume will launch a native token, which will be an important component of the entire ecosystem. Token holders will be able to earn profits generated by various RWA projects on the network. The token will also be used for governance purposes and provide users with more ways to participate in the ecosystem. Through launchpads and launch pools, token holders can participate in RWA projects and earn stable returns.

Chris pointed out that institutions such as BlackRock and Fidelity are becoming increasingly interested. However, the transition to public blockchains is progressing slowly due to the complexity of adopting decentralized systems. Chris predicts that institutions will increasingly recognize the advantages of open networks over private networks, and Plume is seizing this trend by building infrastructure that meets institutional needs.

Plume ensures the transparency of RWAs by collaborating with reputable custodians and providing real-time monitoring of assets. For example, the solar farms on the platform offer real-time energy generation and income data, enabling users to verify earnings in real-time. This transparency builds trust and mitigates risks associated with the tokenization of real-world assets.

Chris outlined the roadmap for Plume, including the transition from testnet to mainnet, expanding the ecosystem, and launching the Plume token. Plume aims to become the preferred platform for RWA tokenization and adoption, focusing on making RWAs more accessible and practical for crypto-native users. Chris emphasized that Plume is building for long-term sustainability, planning to integrate more real-world assets and leverage emerging trends in decentralized finance.
