Yield Day @ Permissionless NYC
Where Real Capital Meets Real Returns
Yield Day, hosted the day before Permissionless IV NYC, is the forum to connect with RWA innovators, DeFi protocols, stablecoin issuers, digital asset infrastructure providers, asset managers, and the allocators driving the next capital cycle.
From tokenized credit to structured income, we're bringing together the dividend layer of DeFi.
We all know the future of fixed income lives on-chain. Join the only event focused entirely on outcomes, not infrastructure.
About Yield Day
Yield Day is a curated forum focused on real-world yield, connecting tokenized credit protocols, structured finance innovators, and capital allocators seeking on-chain income.
No speculation. No theory. Just real assets, real use cases, and real-world yield.
We bring together
Tokenized credit platforms
Yield bearing stablecoins (aka yieldcoins)
Real-world asset protocols
Multi-industry yield innovators: reinsurance, trade finance, SMB, telecom, and more.
Family offices, RIAs, and on-chain allocators
Chains and infra players focused on outcome-driven capital
Intimate, content-rich programming and high-signal networking:
01 - Dividend Layer of DeFi
Private credit, trade finance, and reinsurance flows are no longer crypto curiosities; they now fund DeFi's dividend stream. Hear how leading protocols source, securitize, and distribute real revenue on-chain.
02 - Yieldcoins
Meet the new class of yield-bearing stablecoins and money-market tokens that pay holders real returns. From tokenized T-bill vaults to enterprise-grade funds, these assets are becoming collateral, cash management tools, and on-chain securities all at once. Discover how issuers structure compliance, pipe yield through smart contracts, and unlock fresh liquidity for DeFi and TradFi alike.
03 - From Protocol to Portfolio
Protocols, qualified custodians, and fund managers reveal how they package, secure, and deliver digital yield to RIAs, family offices, and high-net-worth allocators, turning curiosity into committed capital.
04 - Risks, Ratings & Real Returns
From bond-style credit ratings to real-time risk engines that auto-tune pool parameters, new tooling makes tokenized yield auditable and insolvency-resilient. Discover how ratings firms, on-chain oracles, and risk platforms equip allocators with the data and guardrails they need to deploy capital confidently.
05 - Levered RWAs
Tokenized credit funds cycle liquidity through DeFi lending markets, layer borrowing against their assets, and amplify yield. See how securitization rails, on-chain risk engines, and permissioned pools create compliant leverage loops for real-world assets.
06 - Fixed Income Reborn
Explore unified portfolios of on-chain treasuries, T-0 bonds, and bespoke notes curated by digital asset managers, setting the new benchmark for fixed-income yield.
Why Yield Day?
The market doesn’t care about rails. It cares about returns.
Yield Day brings together the real players building structured, income-generating products on-chain and connects them with the capital that matters.
This isn’t vapor. This isn’t theory. This is where on-chain yield gets real.
Where We're Meeting
Apella, Suite 200 – East River waterfront, Midtown Manhattan
In short, it’s a turnkey, East River riverside hub designed for serious capital conversations and a sunset reception in the adjoining lounge that keeps them going.
Where We're Networking
Built for decision-makers. Quiet enough for deal-making, polished enough for press shots, and wired for everything needed to show on-screen.
Two hours of sharp institutional content, then 90 minutes of high-caliber networking over craft bites and refreshments.
All-in, start-to-finish flow. Walk straight from focused programming into a private lounge for networking, canapés, and refreshments. No elevators, no resets, no dead time.
Wall-to-wall windows with NYC skyline views. Natural light and the East River backdrop make even balance-sheet talk feel bigger.
