The move aims to accelerate institutional adoption of tokenized financial assets. It also seeks to unlock new opportunities across DeFi, SocialFi, and cross-chain applications.
Plume is designed for speed, cost efficiency, and developer flexibility. With full Ethereum Virtual Machine compatibility, Plume allows institutions and developers to bring financial assets onchain while maintaining fast transaction finality. The ecosystem already supports over 200,000 RWA holders and more than 200 apps and protocols, making it the largest platform for tokenized real-world assets today. By integrating native USDC, Circle brings the world’s largest regulated stablecoin to this growing ecosystem, offering a reliable tool for settlements, payments, and liquidity.
Benefits of Native USDC and CCTP V2
Native USDC on Plume provides institutions with a regulated, fully reserved digital dollar redeemable 1:1 for U.S. dollars. It integrates smoothly with Plume apps and offers institutional on/off ramps such as Circle Mint for eligible users. This allows developers to build applications that leverage USDC for settlement, treasury rebalancing, swaps, and more without relying on bridged tokens.
USDC and CCTP V2 are now live on @plumenetwork!

The introduction of CCTP V2, Circle’s cross-chain transfer protocol, enables secure movement of USDC between Plume and over a dozen supported blockchains. This unlocks capital efficiency and simplifies liquidity distribution across multiple networks. For example, a project like Nest, which tokenizes real-world assets, can now settle transactions in USDC while routing liquidity through Grove, ensuring smooth cross-chain operations and access to deep DeFi liquidity.
The launch also broadens the market for institutional RWAFi. Native USDC enables settlement for emerging asset classes such as carbon credits, private credit funds, and other tokenized securities. By lowering barriers to entry through Circle Mint and onboarding platforms like Nest, Plume attracts a wider range of institutional participants. This trend aligns with growing demand for regulated stablecoins in DeFi and RWA settlements, reflecting a shift toward trusted, verifiable digital dollars for real-world finance.

Bridged USDC (USDC.e) will continue to operate as usual, and Plume will work with ecosystem apps to transition smoothly to native USDC over time. Institutions and developers can now access a more efficient, secure, and scalable framework for digital asset finance.
