Orca, a leading decentralized exchange on Solana, has launched 'permissioned pools' to enable trading of regulated real-world assets (RWAs) onchain. The system restricts trading to approved investors who have completed KYC checks, targeting the U.S. market and compliance with securities laws. Streamax will be the first issuer, offering its tokenized gold-linked security GLDY. This marks Orca's expansion beyond crypto trading into infrastructure for tokenized traditional assets, a sector seen as a major growth opportunity. Orca's existing liquidity infrastructure supports the pools, with the interface showing asset restrictions and user eligibility.
