According to ChainCatcher news, Plume Network's ecosystem project Nest recently launched its second phase of pre-staking activities, which is the first RWAfi pool aimed at retail investors. Due to strong market demand, the staking pool reached its staking limit in less than 20 minutes, with total staking finances reaching $10 million. To meet market demand, NEST will reopen the staking pool and welcomes all users to participate.
This staking pool will allow users to earn points in the form of deposited funds before the mainnet launch, and the points will be converted into Plume rewards. Users can deposit using USDC or USDT through the Ethereum network, and those who participate in the pre-deposit will receive rewards when the Plume Network mainnet goes live.
It is reported that after Nest goes live on the mainnet, deposited funds will earn real returns in the Nest staking pool. This pre-staking event will be held from December 19 to December 23, with a funding cap of $10 million for the staking pool. Additionally, even if the staking pool is full, all users who have completed pre-registration through Deform will still be reserved a spot.
According to previous news, Plume, the first fully modular integrated Layer-1 blockchain focused on real-world asset finance (RWAfi), today announced the completion of a $20 million Series A funding round.

This funding demonstrates the high recognition from both the crypto industry and traditional financial investors of Plume's commitment to building an on-chain RWAfi ecosystem.
