Blockchain payments provider Tassat Group has received a U.S. patent for its on-chain “yield-in-transit” (YIT) technology, which allows interest to accrue continuously during the time ownership changes during settlement, the company said in a press release Tuesday.
The New York-based firm said the proprietary approach covers intraday accumulation and on-chain interest distribution in high-speed, always-on settlement environments, aiming to remove ambiguity over who earns what return and when.
“Achieving this pivotal patent reflects Tassat’s continued innovation in delivering enterprise-grade blockchain-based settlement infrastructure for digital asset institutions,” Glen Sussman, CEO of Tassat, said in emailed comments.
“Yield in transit allows our institutional clients to accrue intraday interest for the exact time the assets are held, which has significant implications for how market makers, exchanges and custodians manage on-chain liquidity,” Sussman added.
Yield in transit allows clients to continue earning performance as assets move through liquidation, potentially freeing up capital and improving allocation efficiency.
Tassat said YIT is critical to Lynq, a network it launched in July 2025 with partners including Arca Labs and tZERO Group and support from US Bank, Avalanche, B2C2, Crypto.com, Fireblocks, Galaxy, FalconX and Wintermute.
The company said more than 50 institutions are joining the network as real-world tokenized assets, stablecoins and crypto markets expand.
