Kimber Digital Securities LLC has secured SEC broker-dealer registration and FINRA membership, opening a regulated route for tokenised securities.

The Plume affiliate aims to connect US securities with investors' self-custodial digital wallets through existing market infrastructure.

“Registration is a threshold, not a finish line,” according to Plume General Counsel Salman Banaei.

The registration allows Kimber to operate as a securities intermediary and provide services subject to broker-dealer requirements.

The company plans to offer eligible stocks, exchange-traded funds and bonds through tokenised security entitlements.

The structure connects investor entitlements to the Depository Trust Company (DTC), which holds securities through established custody arrangements.

Plume's vault protocol held $250 million in total value locked, with approximately $1 billion in platform volume.

The registration establishes a regulated framework for bringing traditional US securities onto blockchain networks, although several planned services remain under development.
