Decentralized perpetual futures exchange integrates fixed-income and structured credit strategies
Grvt, a decentralized perpetual futures exchange, is integrating three tokenized real-world asset yield products developed with Plume, a blockchain platform focused on RWA tokenization. The products, called Base Yield Fund, Balanced Fund, and Opportunistic Fund, allow users to access fixed-income and structured credit strategies directly from self-custodial wallets without moving assets across separate custody providers.
The integration marks Grvt’s latest move into institutional-grade yield infrastructure. In February 2026, Grvt integrated Aave, a lending protocol, to generate yield on margin collateral. That integration processed $1.23 billion in trading volume, part of a broader $15.2 billion perpetual DEX trading volume recorded in a 24-hour period through 8 p.m. UTC Monday.
Plume’s tokenized RWA infrastructure underpins the three funds. The platform combines tokenized fixed-income exposure with onchain yield mechanisms, allowing traders to hold structured credit and bond-like strategies within decentralized finance rails. Perpetual futures contracts, which Grvt’s core product, allow traders to speculate on price changes without owning underlying assets and carry no expiration date.
The tokenized RWA sector has expanded sharply. Onchain tokenized real-world asset value reached $34 billion, up from $5.8 billion at the start of 2025. A Boston Consulting Group report issued earlier in May 2026 identified tokenized funds, collateral, and fixed-income products as most likely to achieve broader institutional adoption over the coming decade.
Institutional interest in RWA tokenization is accelerating across the sector. In February 2026, Binance added tokenized equities and ETFs from Ondo Finance to its platform. That same month, Securitize partnered with Hamilton Lane, OKX Ventures, and STBL to expand tokenized asset offerings. In March 2026, EtherFi allocated $25 million to Plume’s Nest protocol, signaling confidence in Plume’s infrastructure. BTC Markets, an Australian crypto exchange, notified the country’s securities regulator of tokenized RWA plans in March 2026.
Grvt’s three new products target the institutional fixed-income market. The iShares AAA CLO Active ETF, which holds $2.2 billion in assets, represents the type of institutional-grade yield product now available through decentralized platforms. By embedding tokenized RWA products directly into Grvt’s perpetual futures interface, the exchange removes friction between yield generation and derivatives trading.
