Yield Generation Layer

Definition

A yield generation layer is a part of a decentralized finance system designed to earn returns on digital assets. This refers to a component or protocol within the decentralized finance ecosystem that enables users to earn passive income or returns on their digital asset holdings through various strategies. These strategies often involve lending, liquidity provision, staking, or algorithmic trading across different DeFi platforms. The yield generation layer aggregates and optimizes these opportunities, providing users with a streamlined way to maximize returns from their cryptoassets.
