Plume CEO tips RWA to grow 3-5x in 2026 as it grows past crypto natives
Plume announced on Wednesday that Securitize, a tokenization platform backed by BlackRock and Morgan Stanley, had inked a deal to deploy institutional-grade assets on Plume’s Nest staking protocol.
The real-world asset (RWA) market value could more than triple its current value by 2026, as it expands beyond crypto-native use cases and utility, according to Chris Yin, co-founder and CEO of RWA-focused layer-2 blockchain Plume.
