Asset-Backed Yield

Definition

Asset-Backed Yield represents returns generated from digital assets that are collateralized by tangible or financial assets outside the blockchain. This yield originates from real-world economic activities or traditional financial instruments, which are then tokenized and integrated into decentralized finance platforms. It offers investors a source of income derived from external, verifiable value, rather than solely from protocol emissions or speculative activities. This mechanism aims to bridge conventional finance with the digital asset space by grounding returns in established asset classes.
