TechFlow reports that infrastructure provider Libre has announced the launch of a new Web3 protocol on the Aptos network, introducing access to major investment funds. The first funds onboarded include Brevan Howard's flagship fund, Hamilton Lane's Senior Credit Opportunities Fund, and BlackRock's ICS Money Market Fund, with total assets under management exceeding $9.1 billion.
Libre, a joint venture between WebN Group and Nomura Securities' Laser Digital, will serve as core infrastructure for integrating real-world assets (RWAs) on Aptos. Its Gateway DeFi DApps will enable qualified investors to access these funds on-chain.
Notably, Libre has previously deployed the same portfolios on the Solana and Near blockchains.
According to Dune Analytics, over $1.6 billion in securities have been tokenized as of September 5. Citibank forecasts the tokenized asset market could reach $5 trillion by 2030.
