Plume and PinLink Join Forces To Target $30T RWA Tokenization Opportunity

[PRESS RELEASE – New York, United States, January 3rd, 2025]

Plume, the leading layer-1 blockchain for real world asset finance (RWAfi), today announced its partnership with PinLink, the first RWA-Tokenized DePIN platform, to bring tokenized computing infrastructure to its rapidly growing ecosystem and unlock market-leading yield opportunities for users.

The tokenization of Real World Assets (RWAs) is set to be one of the biggest trends in the blockchain sector in 2025, with the market for RWA trading estimated to reach $30 trillion by 2030. One of the growth areas within the sector are Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePINs), which bring hardware assets like GPUs, CPUs and TPUs onchain.

PinLink, led by Lukasz Orlowski, former VP of Engineering at Enjin and an MIT Innovator Under 35, is transforming the way users utilize DePIN assets by enabling RWA tokenization and fractionalization. From GPUs, IoT devices, and WiFi hotspots, PinLink democratizes access to DePIN revenue streams and services like crowd-sourced compute to drive down costs for AI developers. Transaction fees are reinvested through a Service User Rebate Fund, reducing costs for AI developers while funding innovation. With integrations across platforms like Aethir, NetMind, and Akash Network, and partnerships with Maple Finance, Pendle, and ether.fi, PinLink empowers asset owners to unlock liquidity, AI developers to scale affordably, and investors to access DePIN income.

The collaboration between PinLink and Plume will see the creation of a dedicated DePIN vault on Plume’s upcoming mainnet where users will have exposure to PinLink’s fractionalized DePIN asset yield generated from their platform. This will bring PinLink’s RWA-tokenized DePIN assets to a wider audience while building out Plume’s ecosystem to deliver an expanded DePIN offering. The partnership will help unify the emerging RWA market, unlock liquidity for DePIN asset owners, and drive down costs for DePIN service users.

“For the RWA tokenization market to reach its multi-trillion dollar potential in the next 5 years, the biggest players in the sector will need to collaborate to deliver a seamless, unified experience for both asset owners and end users seeking to buy or rent real world assets onchain,” said PinLink Chief Architect, Lukasz Orlowski. “We believe this partnership with Plume Network can not only help accelerate the mainstream adoption of RWA trading in the DePIN sector, but also drive down costs for the AI developers who rely on DePINs to meet their ever increasing demand for scalable compute power.”

“By integrating PinLink’s DePIN infrastructure into our ecosystem, we’re giving Plume users access to an entirely new category of tokenized real-world assets,” said Chris Yin, CEO and Founder of Plume. “This partnership advances our mission to build the most comprehensive RWA platform while delivering innovative yield opportunities to our community.”
