Plume Network, a blockchain specializing in real-world assets (RWA), is introducing a tokenized ‘Mineral Vault’ in response to the increasing interest in high-yielding private assets onchain. The Mineral Vault, developed by asset manager Allegiance Oil & Gas, represents tokenized mineral interests that generate royalty revenues from natural resource extraction. This initiative aims to offer financial exposure to resource production, including gold, silver, coal, crude oil, and natural gas in the United States. Tokenized RWAs currently hold a total value locked of nearly $12 billion and have the potential to become a $30-trillion market globally. Plume Network envisions creating an RWA-centric ecosystem called RWAfi to enhance real-world assets with crypto-like properties, enabling RWA tokens to be used as collateral for loans and other DeFi applications. The platform is still in its testnet phase, collaborating with Celestia for data availability.

The Vega Chain and VEGA token are set to be closed following a community vote on Sep. 12. The decision, initially proposed in an Aug. 30 blog post, marks the end of the Alpha phase. The team acknowledged insights gained from the community on Vega's usage and the shortcomings of its original vision. With the approval of the proposal, the team will focus on a new project supporting a different token and chain. VEGA trading will cease, giving users two months to settle their accounts. The team, led by Barney Mannerings, plans to launch Nebula chain and NEB token to replace Vega. A token swap will be offered to VEGA holders, with 20% of assets allocated for the transition.
