Goldfinch PRIME Now Live on Nest Via Plume Integration

Goldfinch PRIME has been integrated into Nest, a vault infrastructure built on Plume. The update brings institutional-grade private credit and U.S. Treasuries into a single composable vault, making previously exclusive yield opportunities accessible on-chain. This development enhances the availability of real-world financial instruments in decentralized finance.

GFI Info

Goldfinch is a decentralized credit protocol built on Base (an Ethereum Layer 2), designed to bring traditional private credit funds on-chain. Its flagship product, Goldfinch Prime, provides global access to top-tier private credit funds managed by institutions like Ares, Apollo, and KKR. The protocol democratizes exposure to real-world credit markets by leveraging stablecoins and blockchain infrastructure, enabling participation with reduced cost and geographic friction.

Goldfinch differs from typical DeFi protocols by offering sustainable yields derived from real-world economic activity, primarily through loans to US-based companies. The protocol’s architecture is a monorepo, incorporating smart contracts, a web3 frontend, and backend services (built with React, Node, and MongoDB), all maintained open-source on GitHub. It operates on Ethereum’s proof-of-stake consensus model, ensuring transactional security and decentralization, while Base provides scalability and cost-efficiency.

GFI is the native governance token of the Goldfinch protocol, deployed on Ethereum. Token holders are empowered to participate in protocol governance, including proposals and voting on updates or changes to the system. This decentralized governance model aligns stakeholder incentives and fosters community-led development.
