Tassat wins US patent for 'Yield-in-Transit' onchain settlement tech
|What to know
- The patent covers on-chain 'yield-in-transit' interest accrual and distribution during settlement.
- Tassat said the tech powers Lynq, which it billed as an institutional network offering integrated, interest-bearing settlement.
- The company argued that continuous yield during collateral and reserve operations could improve how market makers, custodians and stablecoin issuers deploy capital.
Blockchain payments provider Tassat Group has received a U.S. patent for its onchain “yield-in-transit” (YIT) technology, which enables interest to accrue continuously through the moment ownership changes during settlement, the company said in a press release Tuesday.
The New York-based firm said the patented approach covers intraday accrual and distribution of on-chain interest in high-velocity, always-on settlement environments, aiming to remove ambiguity around who earns what yield and when.
“Securing this foundational patent reflects Tassat’s continued innovation in delivering enterprise-grade, blockchain-based settlement infrastructure for digital asset institutions,” said Glen Sussman, CEO of Tassat, in emailed comments.
“Yield-in-transit enables our institutional clients to accrue intraday interest for the exact time assets are held, which has meaningful implications for how market makers, exchanges and custodians manage on-chain liquidity,” Sussman added.
Yield-in-transit lets clients continue earning yield while assets are moving through settlement, potentially freeing up capital and improving allocation efficiency.
Tassat said YIT is foundational to Lynq, a network it launched in July 2025 with partners including Arca Labs and tZERO Group and support from U.S. Bank, Avalanche, B2C2, Crypto.com, Fireblocks, Galaxy, FalconX and Wintermute.
The company said more than 50 institutions are onboarding to the network as tokenized real-world assets, stablecoins and crypto markets expand.
