Plume’s AUSD Integration Supercharges DeFi for Real-World Assets on RWAfi

DeFi just got a real-world upgrade. Plume's integration of AUSD is bridging the gap between crypto liquidity and tangible assets—because why should Wall Street have all the fun?

Unlocking RWAfi's potential

The move turns RWAfi into a one-stop shop for tokenized real estate, commodities, and other hard assets. No more begging traditional banks for permission to play.

Yield hunters rejoice

AUSD's stablecoin rails mean institutions can finally ape into DeFi without losing sleep over volatility. Watch TVL spike as yield farmers discover collateral that doesn't vaporize overnight.

The fine print

Regulators haven't blinked yet—but when they do, expect the usual song and dance about 'investor protection' from the same folks who brought you 2008.

Plume eyes real-world assets market

As well as expanding Plume’s increasingly robust DeFi ecosystem, the collaboration is set to boost Agora’s own footprint in the digital dollar space. Key to these developments is a push toward dominance in the tokenized real-world assets market.

“The next wave of stablecoin adoption will be driven by utility beyond payments, and our RWAfi ecosystem will be at the center of that transformation,” Chris Yin, chief executive officer and co-founder of Plume, said in a statement.

AUSD on Plume and its ethereum Virtual Machine environment adds to the bridging of the gap between traditional finance and decentralized finance. RWAfi adoption will include Nest, Plume’s protocol for institutional-grade staking and yield.

Notably, Agora’s stablecoin will help power Plume’s own stablecoin, dubbed PLUME USD. AUSD as a reserve asset provides reliability and trusted liquidity provision for PUSD.

“As adoption of tokenized assets accelerates, users demand stablecoins that are transparent, composable, and trusted,” Agora co-founder and CEO Nick van Eck said.

Plume recently launched Plume Genesis, the platform’s public mainnet as it eyed DeFi composability for RWA. The project has partnered several institutional giants, including Superstate, Blackstone, and Invesco. It secured strategic investment from YZi Labs in March and Apollo Funds in April.
