Real World Asset Yield

Definition

Real World Asset (RWA) yield refers to the financial returns generated from tangible or traditional financial assets that are tokenized and utilized within decentralized finance. This involves bringing assets like real estate, commodities, or debt instruments onto a blockchain, allowing them to be used as collateral or to generate interest in DeFi protocols. The yield itself originates from the underlying off-chain asset’s cash flows or appreciation. It connects traditional finance with the efficiency of blockchain.
