Plume affiliate lands broker-dealer license to bring real U.S. assets onchain

Kimber Digital Securities, an affiliate of the Plume network, has secured SEC and Finra approvals for a broker-dealer license, clearing a path to bring legally binding claims on U.S. real-world assets onchain. Plume, a real-world asset-focused blockchain, gains a compliance bridge between traditional securities and onchain distribution. What to watch next is which asset issuers and stablecoin platforms sign on to use Kimber's licensed rails, and whether the model spreads to other chains.
