Plume, an RWA-focused blockchain, says its infrastructure can support onchain anti-money laundering and legal ownership records for tokenized securities in alignment with DTCC settlement standards. The network operates as a compliance-aware financial platform pairing onchain settlement with regulatory frameworks, having obtained SEC transfer-agent registration through Kimber Transfer Agency and a Bermuda digital asset business licence.
The chain embeds compliance screening at the sequencer level to enforce sanctions and AML controls during transaction processing. Its SEC registration as a transfer agent allows it to maintain shareholder records, process ownership transfers, and interface with the DTCC for tokenized securities—a capability most blockchain networks lack. Plume positions this regulatory infrastructure as core to its architecture rather than an afterthought.
What remains unclear is the extent to which Plume's onchain compliance tooling will be adopted by major institutional participants or how its approach will interact with existing custody and settlement frameworks at scale. The network launched mainnet in mid-2025 and counts Bybit, ether.fi, PIMCO, and WisdomTree among its partners, but broader institutional uptake metrics and timeline for full DTCC integration have not been specified.
