Why Issuers Are Vital For PT Markets
Issuers are the starting point of the PT lifecycle. They originate the yield-bearing assets that DeFi’s fixed-income layer depends on; whether they’re tokenized treasuries, real-world credit vaults, stablecoin reserves, or structured yield products.
Their role is threefold:
Origination of Yield
Issuers create the base instruments that generate yield. Without them, there’s no real economic activity for PT markets to tokenize.Transparency & Verification
They are responsible for disclosing asset reserves, NAV (Net Asset Value), and performance data — ensuring that every PT market can be priced fairly and trusted by both institutions and DeFi participants.Integration with the PT Stack
Issuers collaborate with curators, lending protocols, and yield tokenizers to distribute and manage their assets within PT markets; creating liquidity, maturity-based strategies, and new investment opportunities.
Issuers are the bridge between real-world yield and DeFi composability, turning tokenized assets into auditable, programmable financial products.

Leading Issuers in the PT Ecosystem
f(x) Protocol
f(x) Protocol is at the forefront of on-chain structured yield, enabling investors to access fixed and leveraged yield strategies derived from real-world and DeFi-native assets. By designing products with clear maturity and payoff structures, f(x) is effectively bringing bond-like predictability to DeFi.
EO Network powers f(x) PT markets with precise, manipulation-resistant pricing feeds, ensuring that each PT reflects accurate time-based value. This gives f(x) the foundation to build institutional-grade fixed yield products that can integrate seamlessly into DeFi lending and RWA markets.
OpenEden
OpenEden is pioneering tokenized treasuries, giving investors on-chain access to yield from U.S. government debt instruments. Each tokenized treasury is fully backed, transparent, and auditable; bridging traditional fixed-income assets with the liquidity of DeFi.
EO Network supports OpenEden by providing NAV and Proof of Reserve feeds, offering real-time visibility into treasury backing and collateralization. With EO’s data layer, OpenEden’s tokenized assets can safely participate in PT markets, fixed-yield vaults, and stablecoin collateral frameworks with institutional transparency.
Resolv
Resolv focuses on tokenized RWA yield products, blending institutional credit strategies with DeFi accessibility. By bringing regulated, yield-bearing instruments on-chain, Resolv expands the range of assets that can be integrated into PT markets; from private credit to short-duration bonds.
With EO’s NAV tracking and cross-chain pricing infrastructure, Resolv can publish transparent, verifiable data across its tokenized asset base, ensuring that every PT product built on Resolv collateral is priced accurately and securely.
Other Leading Issuers
River
River issues institutional-grade yield vaults and tokenized credit products designed for DeFi’s fixed-income layer. EO powers River with NAV and PT feeds that ensure transparent valuation and reserve visibility across its markets.
Aegis
Aegis creates stable, RWA-backed assets optimized for use as collateral in PT and lending markets. EO provides Proof of Reserve and cross-chain data feeds that reinforce the integrity of every Aegis-backed instrument.
Falcon & BitFi
Both Falcon and BitFi are developing structured yield products that merge DeFi composability with traditional risk frameworks. EO’s secure feeds ensure that these issuers can deploy products with reliable, manipulation-resistant pricing across chains.
EO Network: The Trust Layer for Issuers
For issuers, trust and transparency define credibility. EO Network provides the oracle and data infrastructure that guarantees their tokenized assets can operate safely and be priced accurately across multiple ecosystems.
EO delivers:
NAV & Proof of Reserve feeds to verify real-world collateral and reserves in real time.
Cross-chain pricing consistency, ensuring stable valuations across networks.
Immutable on-chain proofs, so investors and auditors can verify every data update.
Stake-secured operators that maintain integrity and reliability, even under volatility.
By integrating EO’s data infrastructure, issuers can focus on designing high-quality, yield-bearing products, confident that the data powering them is transparent, auditable, and trusted by institutions.
Conclusion
Issuers are the foundation of the PT stack. They create the real-world and DeFi-native assets that power the fixed-yield economy, bringing transparency, accountability, and legitimacy to on-chain finance.
Protocols like f(x) Protocol, OpenEden, and Resolv are leading this shift; transforming traditional yield products into programmable, tokenized assets ready for a decentralized world.
With EO Network securing NAV, Proof of Reserve, and PT pricing data, issuers gain the infrastructure needed to issue confidently and scale globally. Together, EO and issuers are building the foundation for transparent, fixed income on-chain.
