Blockchain payments provider Tassat Group said in a press release on Tuesday that it has received a U.S. patent for its on-chain “Yield in Transit” (YIT) technology that enables interest to continue to accrue when ownership changes during the settlement process.
The New York-based company said the patented approach covers intraday accruals and the distribution of on-chain interest in a high-speed, always-on settlement environment and is designed to remove the ambiguity of who earns how much and when.
“Obtaining this foundational patent reflects Tassat’s continued innovation in providing enterprise-grade, blockchain-based settlement infrastructure for digital asset institutions,” Tassat CEO Glen Sussman said in emailed comments.
“Yield-in-transit enables our institutional clients to accrue intraday interest at the exact time an asset is held, which has meaningful implications for how market makers, exchanges and custodians manage on-chain liquidity,” Sussman added.
Earnings-in-transit allows clients to continue to earn income while assets go through settlement, potentially freeing up capital and improving allocation efficiencies.
Tassat said YIT is the foundation of Lynq, a network launched in July 2025 with partners such as Arca Labs and tZERO Group, and supported by US Bank, Avalanche, B2C2, Crypto.com, Fireblocks, Galaxy, FalconX and Wintermute.
The company said more than 50 institutions have joined the network as the market for tokenized real-world assets, stablecoins and cryptocurrencies expands.
