A Redstone study has revealed a significant yield gap in the cryptocurrency market, with only 8% to 11% of the $3.2 trillion market generating yield, compared to 55% to 65% in traditional finance. This disparity is seen as a barrier to institutional adoption due to the lack of predictable and auditable yield. Max Sandy from Ramp Network emphasized the need for robust infrastructure, transparency, and usability improvements to bridge this gap. He pointed to liquid staking derivatives (LSTs) and tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) as potential growth areas for yield generation. Additionally, Phil Wirtjes of Enclave Global noted a shift in institutional focus towards yield-driven strategies that prioritize integrity and confidentiality, while Sandy highlighted the necessity of regulatory clarity for scaling tokenized RWAs.
