Blockchain Providers Team to Expand Access to Private Credit

Blockchain Providers Team to Expand Access to Private Credit

Plume, a layer-1 blockchain designed specifically for real-world asset finance (RWAfi), has partnered with Goldfinch, an on-chain private credit platform, to deliver access to private credit funds from firms like Apollo, Ares Management, Golub Capital, and KKR. This access is facilitated through Nest, Plume’s flagship staking platform, utilizing blockchain technology to integrate these offerings into the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.

As the first full-stack L1 chain dedicated to RWAfi, Plume collaborates with Goldfinch Prime—a compliant, aggregated private credit product—to provide Nest users with a liquid investment option boasting sustainable yields. Goldfinch works with multiple asset managers to create an indexed private credit product represented by a single token. The platform is actively expanding its roster of managers, channeling institutional-grade yield opportunities directly into DeFi.

The alliance seeks to hasten the tokenization of alternative assets, empowering investors to buy, trade, and leverage high-quality yield products as collateral.

“We’re excited to partner with Plume on this as a way to make Goldfinch Prime even more useful for crypto-native investors,” said Goldfinch co-founder and CTO, Blake West.

Through Nest vaults, Plume’s RWAfi ecosystem renders these private credit yields fully permissionless, liquid, and adaptable, offering users access to consistent 10% to 12% returns, according to the companies.
