Background

YieldNest

YieldNest is a next-generation liquid restaking protocol that provides simple-to-understand, risk-adjusted restaking strategies.

Its mission is to abstract away the complexities of restaking by building a one-stop-shop, easy-to-understand nLRT and LRT-based products with superior risk-adjusted returns.

YieldNest envisions a thriving and ever-expanding multi-sided restaking market across various verticals. It aims to establish a long-term symbiotic relationship among restakers, node operators, and Actively Validated Services (AVS).

YieldNest Partners with Willow Protocol for Verifiable Analytics Dashboard

Mon 15th Jun 2026
YieldNest has announced a partnership with Willow Protocol to develop a cryptographically verifiable analytics dashboard. This collaboration builds on YieldNest's recent integration efforts, following their October 2024 partnership with API Verse for blockchain analytics and API access. The new dashboard will leverage cryptographic verification to provide transparent, trustworthy analytics data for users of the liquid restaking protocol.

πŸ”„ RWA Looping Goes Mainstream

Thu 5th Mar 2026
**ynRWAx enables a new DeFi primitive: looping real-world asset yield** YieldNest's ynRWAx token is designed specifically for leverage loopingβ€”a strategy where users borrow against yield-bearing collateral to amplify returns. Unlike most RWA tokens, ynRWAx offers: - **Stable collateral** backed by Australian mortgage-secured credit - **~11% base APY** from real-world lending - **Deep borrow markets** on Morpho and Euler - **ERC-4626 composability** for seamless DeFi integration **How it works:** Deposit ynRWAx as collateral β†’ borrow USDC β†’ buy more ynRWAx β†’ repeat. Each cycle stacks exposure to the 11% yield while paying ~5% borrow costs, creating a positive spread. Contango now automates the entire loop into one transaction using flash loans, making the process significantly simpler. **The setup includes:** - Isolated risk pools on Morpho - One-click looping via Euler's Multiply feature - Additional yield through Merkl and Brevis incentives - Yield tokenization options on Pendle and Spectra **Key risks:** liquidation if ynRWAx/USDC ratio drops, variable borrow rates, and redemption constraints (maturity: Oct 14, 2026). This wasn't possible until recently. Now it's becoming a core DeFi building block.

YieldNest Explains Yield Looping Strategy Between Real-World Assets and DeFi Borrowing

Thu 19th Mar 2026
YieldNest published a guide explaining yield looping strategies that capture the spread between real-world asset yields and DeFi borrowing rates. **The core concept:** - When an asset earns more than it costs to borrow against, users can loop the spread - Process: Deposit asset β†’ borrow stablecoins β†’ buy more of the asset β†’ deposit again - Each cycle amplifies exposure to the yield differential The guide covers: - Mathematical breakdown of the looping mechanism - Platform options for executing the strategy - Associated risks and considerations Full walkthrough available at: [YieldNest Medium](https://medium.com/@yieldnest/ynrwax-looping-capture-the-spread-between-real-world-yield-and-defi-borrow-rates-269de9395cc9) *Note: Content is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.*

Euler V2 Simplifies Leveraged Yield Farming with One-Click Flash Loan Looping

Mon 9th Mar 2026
**Euler V2's multiply feature streamlines leveraged yield farming** by automating the entire looping process into a single transaction. **Key features:** - Uses flash loans to execute borrowing, swapping, and resupplying automatically - Vault-to-vault LTV settings optimized for ynRWA - One-click execution eliminates manual multi-step processes This innovation builds on similar functionality previously introduced by [Morpho](https://app.morpho.org/ethereum/borrow), which partnered with Velora DEX to enable position looping across Ethereum, Base, Unichain, and Polygon networks.

YieldNest Launches Real Estate-Backed Restaking Strategy Offering 36% APY

Thu 5th Mar 2026
**YieldNest has launched a new delegator on Cap that connects restaked ETH to real-world mortgage credit.** **How it works:** - ETH restakers provide coverage on Cap - YieldNest operators borrow USDC - USDC flows into $ynRWAx (mortgage-backed credit) - ynRWAx earns ~11% APY from Australian real estate mortgages - Yield returns to restakers at 36% APY The system bridges on-chain liquidity with real-world assets, specifically top-tier Australian real estate. This marks a shift toward using restaked assets as collateral for real-world credit markets. The delegator is built in partnership with Cap and Agra, enabling stable, real-time liquidity for private credit deals. Restakers can now earn yield from both network security and mortgage-secured credit simultaneously. [Access the YieldNest Delegator](http://cap.app/delegators/yield-nest)

🏦 FlowTraders Brings Institutional Credit Onchain

Thu 27th Nov 2025
**YieldNest** partnered with **FlowTraders** and **CapitalMoney** to bring institutional credit markets onchain through **Eigencloud**. - FlowTraders becomes first operator-restaker deployment on Eigencloud - YieldNest's MAX LRTs isolate operator risk into separate liquid tokens - New **ynRWAx campaign** with Brevis allows holders to earn more ynRWAx - **ynBNBx holders** now get exposure to $AT token This marks a significant step for onchain credit markets, with YieldNest's upgraded design adding cross-chain DeFi strategies on top of their risk-isolated liquid restaking tokens.

πŸ—οΈ YieldNest's Modular Vault

Mon 13th Oct 2025
**YieldNest's $ynBNBx** operates on a modular MAX Vault architecture that allows flexible strategy management. **Key Features:** - Strategies can be added or removed modularly - Governance controls integration approvals - Design adapts as yield opportunities evolve **How it Works:** - Spreads BNB across multiple staking derivatives - Captures restaking rewards and DeFi incentives - Automatically rebalances for optimal returns - Users hold one token while vault handles complexity The vault compounds yield over time through token value increases. This approach eliminates constant management while optimizing restaking returns. [Start earning yields with ynBNBx](https://app.yieldnest.finance/token/ynBNBx)
