Tokenized Mineral Vault Launch by Plume Network Amid Rising Demand for Real-World Assets

Plume Network, a blockchain specializing in real-world assets (RWA), is introducing a tokenized ‘Mineral Vault’ in response to the increasing interest in high-yielding private assets onchain. The Mineral Vault, developed by asset manager Allegiance Oil & Gas, represents tokenized mineral interests that generate royalty revenues from natural resource extraction. This initiative aims to offer financial exposure to resource production, including gold, silver, coal, crude oil, and natural gas in the United States. Tokenized RWAs currently hold a total value locked of nearly $12 billion and have the potential to become a $30-trillion market globally. Plume Network envisions creating an RWA-centric ecosystem called RWAfi to enhance real-world assets with crypto-like properties, enabling RWA tokens to be used as collateral for loans and other DeFi applications. The platform is still in its testnet phase, collaborating with Celestia for data availability.
