AFI Launches $20M RWA Vault with Multipli

Overview

AFI announces the launch of a $20M rwaUSDi vault with Multipli, backed by $80M in verified reserves. This milestone is not only a significant achievement for AFI but also a major step forward for the future of provable on-chain RWAs. Multipli, one of the fastest-growing RWA platforms today, brings exposure across treasuries, credit, funds, and other institutional products. This Proof of Reserve vault marks the beginning of a new model for off-chain reserves becoming provably backed on-chain collateral through AFI.

Key Features

• $20M rwaUSDi Vault: Launched with $80M in verified reserves, setting the stage for future growth.
• Proof of Reserve Vault: A step toward bringing off-chain reserves into a provably backed on-chain standard.
• Real Reserves → Independently Verified: The vault demonstrates a new model where reserves are independently verified and safely activated as on-chain collateral.
• Multipli’s Reserves: The vault reflects Multipli’s reserves as a live, verifiable signal, ensuring transparency and security in RWA collateral.

Why It Matters

For years, RWA protocols have scaled with fragmented standards and delayed disclosures. This launch signals a shift to a new model where large RWA issuers are choosing verification over assumptions. With Multipli’s reserves now reflected as a live, verifiable signal via AFI, this partnership represents a huge step forward in bringing trusted, standardized collateral to the RWA space, similar to how SWIFT standardized global payments.

The Future of RWAs

This is just the beginning. As Multipli continues to scale its institutional asset base, AFI will play a critical role in transforming that growth into trusted collateral, verified reserves, and safe on-chain yield. The future of RWAs will no longer rely on trust-based models. Instead, it will be built on Proof of Reserve — a reliable and standardized approach for on-chain collateral.
