Lionsoul Global is proud to present our latest collaborative research with NAV Fund Services where we examine how yield in digital assets is generated, risk-managed, and delivered at institutional standards - Yield Generation in Digital Assets

The research maps the progression from Bitcoin to DeFi, distinguishes sustainable returns from incentives, and outlines how to package strategies within regulated fund structures - complete with the controls, reporting, and governance institutions require.

Highlights include:

Know Your Yield — Identify economic drivers (fees, funding, spreads) vs. incentives; prioritize transparency and durability.

Systematic Strategies — Funding-rate and basis trades, liquidity provision, and volatility harvesting—expressed in base currency via delta-hedging and automation.

Risk Management First — Real-time monitoring, diversification across protocols/chains, counterparty and oracle mapping, with defined playbooks for stress events.

From On-chain to Audit-Ready — NAV’s administration framework converts on-chain positions into investor-grade NAV, daily income recognition, and audit-ready reporting.
