Archax introduces real-time yield payments for tokenized securities on Hedera
Archax has introduced real-time yield payments on Hedera, enabling interest generated by tokenized securities to be distributed continuously in USDC. The system allows interest payments to update automatically as tokenized securities move between wallets.

Most tokenized securities continue to distribute interest through periodic payments, similar to traditional financial products. Archax said its system allows cash flows to accrue and settle continuously, supporting applications such as real-time coupon payments and revenue-sharing arrangements. The launch builds on Archaxs earlier work on tokenized investment products. In September, the company introduced Pool Tokens on Hedera, allowing multiple tokenized assets to be bundled into a single onchain instrument, including a product backed by money market funds from several major asset managers.

Archax is a UK-regulated digital asset exchange and custodian, while Hedera is a public distributed ledger network used by financial institutions developing tokenized asset products. According to Hedera, Archaxs platform hosts more than $300 million in tokenized assets from six asset
