Kamui Finance Launches Three Institutional Real-World Asset Vaults Onchain

Kamui Finance Launches Three Institutional Real-World Asset Vaults Onchain

What Kamui Finance Launched

Kamui Finance announced on September 22, 2026 that its first three real-world asset (RWA) vaults are now live onchain. The vaults are built on Ethereum and integrated with tokenization platforms DigiFT, Hastra Prime, and Midas. They are designed for professional and sophisticated investors seeking exposure to tokenized real-world assets, with every position visible onchain.

The three vaults—Stable, Balanced, and Boosted—range from high liquidity to higher target yields. Stable holds tokenized US Treasury bills and money market funds for fully liquid income. Balanced diversifies across asset classes to balance yield and liquidity. Boosted pairs private credit with DeFi liquidity for the highest target return. The vaults carry risks including smart contract, liquidity, and issuer credit risk. They are live with six figures in initial total value locked.

Key Points

  • Three vaults—Stable, Balanced, and Boosted—are now live onchain, built on Ethereum.
  • Integrations with DigiFT, Hastra Prime, and Midas provide access to curated tokenized assets.
  • Initial TVL is in the six figures.
  • The vaults target professional and sophisticated investors in eligible jurisdictions.
  • AML controls are applied at the vault level.

Solving the RWA Integration Problem

Kamui Finance built an operational layer that addresses a key barrier in the tokenized RWA market: fragmented integration. Currently, each issuer and tokenization platform sets its own onboarding requirements, fund flows, and settlement processes. A platform wanting to offer multiple assets must build and maintain a separate operational relationship for each one. Kamui abstracts this burden—handling issuer onboarding, fund flows, technical connectivity, settlement, NAV calculation, and reporting through a single unified interface.

Kamui also presents an unweighted index of eligible RWAs. Eligibility is determined through off-chain diligence on the underlying asset and onchain diligence on the tokenized wrapper. Vaults select from this index based on their own mandates, driven by return and liquidity considerations. This means one integration gives platforms access to both the operating infrastructure and a curated set of assets.

What Industry Partners Said

Reid Simon, President of Digital Assets at Figure, said: "Kamui is building exactly the kind of access layer tokenized credit needs to reach scale: operated, audited vault infrastructure that puts institutional-grade assets in front of platforms, treasuries and DeFi users." He added that Figure is excited to have Kamui allocate to Hastra's assets and work together on bringing onchain credit to a broader set of investors.

Hadi Kabalan, CEO of Kamui Finance, stated: "Tokenizing RWAs does not solve liquidity or adverse selection. Kamui is attempting to address those questions and support industry development."

Henry Zhang, Founder and CEO of DigiFT, said: "We work with leading asset managers and financial institutions to bring institutional investment strategies onchain. Our ambition is to give eligible investors a broader set of building blocks for portfolios that reflect their investment objectives."

Why This Matters

The launch addresses a practical bottleneck in the RWA market. As tokenized real-world assets have grown on public blockchains, the lack of a common way to access them has limited adoption. Capital has frequently routed through off-chain custody accounts and intermediaries, reintroducing counterparty opacity that tokenization was meant to remove. Kamui's unified operating layer aims to change that by giving fintechs, neobanks, wallet providers, and market venues a turnkey way to offer RWA yield without building the underlying infrastructure themselves.

What Is Still Unclear

The source does not specify exact TVL figures beyond "six figures," nor does it provide specific yield targets or timelines for the vaults. The article also does not detail which jurisdictions are eligible beyond stating that access is restricted to professional and sophisticated investors in eligible jurisdictions and prohibited in certain countries including the United States and comprehensively sanctioned regions.

About the Team and Future Plans

Kamui Finance's team draws on more than 20 years of combined institutional experience from Goldman Sachs, OKX, Kraken, and Emurgo. The three vaults are described as the first expression of Kamui's infrastructure and are meant to establish the operational track record for B2B service lines, including Kamui Bespoke Earn, which enables partners to customize asset exposure, liquidity, and risk profiles, as well as Embedded Yield and Whitelabel solutions.
