Goldfinch Protocol Launches Prime Pool for Onchain Private Credit Access

According to The Block, the initiative aims to provide non-U.S. investors with on-chain exposure to loans from leading private credit firms.

The Prime pool operates as a continuous offering, allowing investors to enter at any time by depositing USDC stablecoins. In return, they receive GPRIME tokens, which reflect their proportional stake in the pool. The fund targets net annual returns between 9% and 12% without a minimum investment requirement.

With this launch, the Goldfinch protocol aims to strengthen on-chain access to private credit, a rapidly expanding segment within real-world asset (RWA) tokenization. Recently, private credit accounts for over 60% of tokenized RWA assets, with more than $11 billion already on-chain. Investment firm VanEck projects the overall tokenized RWA market will exceed $50 billion by the end of the year.
