Asset manager
WisdomTree
has strengthened its digital presence by introducing 14 tokenized funds on the
Plume
blockchain, a network tailored for real-world asset (RWA) financial products. Announced on October 30, this initiative is intended to expand institutional access to regulated blockchain-based investment options, utilizing Plume’s compliance features. The new offerings, such as the Government Money Market Digital Fund and the CRDT Private Credit and Alternative Income Fund, are accessible via WisdomTree Connect and enable investors to directly hold, transfer, and settle assets on-chain, according to
a CoinDesk report
.
Galaxy Digital has demonstrated early institutional interest by committing $10 million to WisdomTree’s Government Money Market Digital Fund, highlighting the increasing demand for tokenized investments among major players, the report noted. Plume’s built-in know-your-customer (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML) protocols—including wallet verification and sanctions compliance—position the blockchain as a regulatory-friendly alternative to broader networks like
Ethereum
or Polygon, the report continued. The platform, which recently achieved SEC registration as a transfer agent, reports hosting over 276,000 RWA users and $600 million in tokenized assets, making it the largest RWA-centric blockchain by participant count, the report stated.
This move represents a strategic effort by WisdomTree to broaden its blockchain activity beyond Ethereum and
Stellar
. Managing more than $100 billion in conventional assets and $650 million in tokenized holdings, the firm highlighted that its SEC-registered 1940 Act products support on-chain transfers through soulbound NFTs while upholding regulatory standards, the report mentioned. Maredith Hannon, who leads Digital Assets Business Development at WisdomTree, said that working with Plume offers investors “a range of tokenized fund strategies and improved settlement efficiency,” emphasizing blockchain’s role in optimizing operations.
This development also signals growing rivalry among asset managers to bring regulated investment products onto the blockchain. According to the report, Franklin Templeton and BlackRock are also exploring blockchain to improve distribution and liquidity for institutional investors. WisdomTree’s multi-chain approach reflects a wider industry movement, as firms strive to innovate while remaining compliant in the changing RWA sector.
