Plume Announces Arc - Superapp to Tokenize Over $4B of Plume’s Exclusive Pipeline of Real World Assets
January 7, 2025

Plume is thrilled to introduce Arc, a groundbreaking, free for issuers, and open-source tokenization superapp that leverages the unique capabilities of Plume’s blockchain infrastructure to bring billions of dollars in real world assets (RWAs) onchain. With over $4 billion in committed assets, including private credit, renewable energy, insurance assets, international government bonds, and digital infrastructure, Arc is poised to redefine tokenized finance, making it accessible, compliant, and seamless.

Plume’s Arc transforms what was once a complex, months-long process into an intuitive, user-friendly experience. Asset issuers can tokenize anything—stocks, bonds, funds, or SPVs tied to physical assets—and launch them onchain in minutes. At the heart of Arc is Plume’s bespoke blockchain infrastructure, uniquely designed to support tokenization workflows that simply aren’t possible elsewhere.

Unlocking Billions in Value

Arc is slated for launch in Q1 2025, with an impressive pipeline of $2 billion in private and public credit, $1 billion in energy transition projects, $500 million in metals and mining, and $500 million in royalty assets. These include solar energy investments, carbon credits, music royalties, and even BTC mining operations. Arc is more than a platform—it’s a bridge between institutional-grade RWAs and the blockchain ecosystem, offering new opportunities for both issuers and crypto users.

Why Arc Stands Apart

Plume’s native blockchain powers features exclusive to Arc, enabling issuers to bypass the traditional barriers of technical complexity, regulatory compliance, and high costs.

Self-custody is seamless with Plume’s smart account infrastructure, linking yield streams from offchain bank accounts directly to tokenized assets. One of the core integrations that makes this possible is Plume’s Smart Wallet infrastructure that’s built natively into its chain. For seamless integration, Plume is proud to have ZeroDev - the top smart account platform powering more than 4 million smart accounts across EVM chains - be one of the core integrations directly in Arc’s tokenization superapp.

Compliance tools integrated into the Arc ecosystem allow issuers to onboard users with KYC, KYB, and accreditation checks through Parallel Markets and zkME. Issuers and protocols that don’t already have their own identity and accreditation solutions - typically done at the application level - Arc’s integrations are meant to augment their existing workflows and in the future enable seamless integration with Plume’s 180+ RWAfi protocols.

Arc also empowers issuers to create custom storefronts, enabling direct sales of tokenized assets on their own websites, complete with KYC automation and compliance-ready accreditation powered by Plume’s long term partner Parallel Markets. By leveraging Plume’s secure blockchain and integrations with enterprise-grade wallet and custody technology providers like Anchorage and Fireblocks, issuers can tokenize assets with unmatched efficiency and control. For US-based issuers that need to comply with the country's regulation, Plume’s long-standing partnerships with Plural and Texture pave the way for deep integrations into their broker-dealer regulated stacks and transfer agents.

A Vision for RWAfi

Arc is more than a tokenization superapp—it’s the foundation of a new era in decentralized finance. Using direct integrations into bridges like LayerZero, Rialto Bridge, and many more, Arc lets issuers on Plume bring their dividend yielding assets onchain, growing total TVL of crypto globally. Plume’s Arc lets issuers bring their productive assets onchain, and organically grow Plume’s TVL as a result - an outcome that benefits RWAfi as a whole.

Together with Nest, Plume’s flagship and natively incubated RWA staking protocol, Arc delivers real-world asset-backed yields to crypto users, offering new ways to engage with the $400 trillion global asset market. By making billions of dollars in assets available onchain, Arc is bringing the vision of RWAfi to life.

Arc isn’t just about tokenizing assets—it’s about creating an ecosystem where issuers, developers, and investors can interact with tokenized RWAs in ways previously unimaginable. Powered by Plume, Arc sets the standard for a tokenization platform that is secure, compliant, and built for scale.
