Liquid Yield Tokens

Definition

Liquid yield tokens are digital assets that represent a claim on future yield generated from underlying staked or deposited cryptocurrencies. These tokens allow users to retain liquidity while still participating in yield-generating activities like staking or lending. Holders can trade these tokens on secondary markets, effectively monetizing their future earnings or collateral without withdrawing the underlying assets. They provide flexibility and capital efficiency within decentralized finance protocols.
