YieldNest Launches ynRWAx Vault

YieldNest, a DeFi infrastructure provider for yield strategies, has introduced ynRWAx, a vault designed to integrate real-world credit returns into decentralized finance. The product focuses on combining tokenized assets with lending mechanisms commonly used in DeFi, including leveraged looping strategies.

The vault targets an annual yield of about 11%, based on mortgage-backed private credit linked to residential real estate in Australia. The credit operations are managed by Kimber Capital, a licensed Australian investment firm specializing in structured lending. YieldNest delivers the on-chain architecture and integrations.

ynRWAx is structured as a yield-bearing asset that allows users to gain exposure to off-chain credit markets within blockchain-based systems. It follows the ERC-4626 standard, which supports compatibility with lending protocols and broader DeFi applications without requiring special permissions.

The vault currently holds more than $7.5 million in total value locked and operates across multiple networks, including Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and Polygon. Additional integrations include Euler and Morpho for lending, as well as Pendle and Spectra, which enable separation of fixed and variable yield components. Incentive layers are provided through Merkl and Brevis Incentra, adding extra rewards alongside the base yield.
