Yield Basis is an on-chain liquidity protocol designed to address impermanent loss in AMM pools by allowing liquidity providers to maintain direct spot exposure to assets while earning organic yield. The protocol supports Bitcoin-wrapped tokens (cbBTC, tBTC, WBTC) and WETH as yield-bearing assets, with markets showing $190M+ in total TVL across four active pools. Its technical approach separates trading yield (earned from pool rebalancing activity) from token yield (YB emissions), giving LPs a configurable risk/reward profile. The protocol raised $5M via a public token sale and includes governance, vote-locking, and airdrop mechanics typical of a veToken-style DeFi system.

YieldClub is a mobile app that routes user deposits into DeFi lending protocols to generate 5–12% APY on stablecoins, with earnings compounding every 16 seconds and no lockup periods. The app uses Privy for self-custodial wallet management, meaning YieldClub never takes direct custody of funds. A flagship 'Autopilot' feature automatically converts accrued stablecoin yield into Bitcoin at regular intervals, allowing users to accumulate BTC without touching their principal. Onramps include ACH bank transfer, debit card, and USDC/Coinbase transfers, and the app also supports spot trading of BTC, ETH, and XRP. The project raised a $2.5M pre-seed round in June 2025.

YieldNest is a liquid restaking protocol on Ethereum that aggregates multiple decentralized finance yield strategies into unified liquid tokens. The protocol offers four primary products: ynETHx, which enables ETH restaking through EigenLayer; ynRWAx, which provides yield exposure to real-world asset products; ynUSDx, a stablecoin yield product; and STAK, a token integrated with StakeDAO. The protocol operates through a decentralized autonomous organization structure with on-chain governance mechanisms. Security audits are published on GitHub. The protocol engages LlamaRisk for risk assessment services. The system functions by pooling user deposits into vaults that execute underlying yield-generating strategies, with liquid tokens representing user positions and enabling secondary market trading.

YOM is a decentralized cloud gaming infrastructure platform that enables instant, browser-based game streaming without downloads, powered by a distributed network of GPU operators rather than centralized data centers. The platform uses AI-based routing to connect players to the nearest GPU node, targeting sub-12ms average latency and claiming up to 20x lower costs compared to traditional cloud gaming infrastructure. YOM serves three primary audiences: game publishers seeking instant distribution without app stores, platforms wanting white-label cloud gaming portals, and GPU operators who earn passive income by contributing compute resources to the network. The project operates a native token (YOM) and is built on Avalanche, with backers including Outlier Ventures and several venture capital firms; the mainnet launch was pending as of the site snapshot.

Yooldo is a blockchain gaming platform built on the Linea network, an Ethereum Layer 2 solution.

The platform also includes an Academy for crypto education and a recurring-purchase 'Salvadanaio' (piggy bank) feature for automated DCA investing. It raised $3M in September 2024 and issues its own native token, $YNG, with associated tokenomics and loyalty clubs.

YOYOW is a public blockchain designed to function as a content value network. The system enables content creators, investors, and curators to receive tokenized rewards for their contributions to the platform. The blockchain operates using delegated proof of stake (DPoS) consensus and achieves transaction confirmation in approximately 3 seconds. The network supports transaction throughput of 3,000 or more transactions per second. Transfer transactions operate without fees through a credit-point model that users accumulate. The platform provides middleware, plugins, and an open API to allow text, image, video, and livestream content platforms to integrate YOYOW's incentive system and issue custom tokens. The native token YOYO functions as the primary asset on the network.
