Archax Activates Per-Second Yield Streaming for Tokenized Securities on Hedera

Archax expands its Hedera tokenization stack with continuous interest payments settled in Circle's USDC.

Archax has activated real-time streaming cash flows for tokenized securities on Hedera. The UK and EU regulated digital asset platform announced the deployment on June 11, 2026. Under the new model, interest payments reach investor wallets on a near second-by-second basis. The settlement currency is Circle’s USDC stablecoin, which operates natively on Hedera. Importantly, the launch converts income distribution from a scheduled batch process into a continuous on-chain flow. For institutional investors, that shift touches accounting cadence, intraday liquidity, and secondary trading mechanics.

How Per-Second Payments Work

The new capability ties cash flows directly to the underlying tokenized security in real time. While an investor holds the token, payments accrue continuously to their wallet rather than to a calculated balance. As ownership shifts through trading, the cash flow automatically follows the asset to its new holder. Furthermore, because the underlying assets can be fractionalized, the associated payments remain continuously divisible. Therefore, a wallet holding one tenth of a token receives one tenth of the per-second flow. In traditional markets, ex-dividend and record dates dictate who receives an upcoming payment. By contrast, the streaming model removes that cutoff logic entirely.

Why Hedera Enables Real-Time Settlement

Hedera transactions typically settle in three to five seconds at a cost near a fraction of a cent. Consequently, the network can process large volumes of micropayments without consuming meaningful value in fees. Circle’s USDC operates natively on Hedera, giving Archax a regulated dollar settlement rail end to end. The native model avoids bridges and wrapped tokens, which often introduce compliance and operational risk. Meanwhile, Hashgraph runs the network with enterprise governance through a council of global institutions. Together, those features make streaming payments viable for regulated products rather than purely experimental ones.

Building on a Track Record of Tokenized Funds

Archax has built one of the deepest tokenized fund lineups on any public network. The firm has tokenized money market funds from abrdn, BlackRock, Fidelity International, State Street, and Legal & General on Hedera. In February 2025, the HBAR Foundation invested in Archax tokens of Fidelity International’s USD Money Market Fund. Later, in September 2025, Archax launched Pool Tokens on Hedera, bundling multiple tokenized funds into a single composable asset. As a result, the platform already supports issuance, secondary movement, and basket construction across regulated products. Streaming cash flows now attach a live distribution layer to that existing stack.

By enabling cash flows to move seamlessly with tokenized securities, we’re bringing greater efficiency, transparency, and precision to capital markets.

From Scheduled Coupons to Continuous Distribution

Most regulated income products today pay interest on fixed schedules tied to a calendar cycle. Coupon dates, calculation agents, paying agents, and clearing windows govern when investors actually receive value. In between, accrued interest sits as a calculated balance rather than spendable cash in the holder’s account. By contrast, streaming cash flows pay yield as it accrues, second by second, with the calculation running automatically on chain. Graham Rodford, CEO and co-founder of Archax, said this turns a 24/7 market into a real-time, second-by-second market. Operationally, the model removes a layer of post-trade reconciliation and replaces periodic statements with a live yield view.

Why This Matters and Where It Goes Next

Streaming payment concepts have circulated in deFi for years through protocols like Superfluid and Sablier. However, those systems mostly served payroll, vesting, grants, and DAO contributor flows. By contrast, Archax brings the same logic to regulated securities under FCA and EU oversight. The press release points to broader applications beyond tokenized fund interest. Continuous coupon payments on tokenized bonds sit at the top of that list, alongside real-time revenue distribution for private credit, royalties, and structured products. Usage-based payments also fit metered services, including data, energy, and software subscriptions. Gregg Bell, Hashgraph’s Chief Investment Officer, said assets and the value they generate now move together in real time.

The Bigger Picture for Tokenized Markets

The on-chain tokenized real-world asset market has crossed $34 billion in mid-2026. BlackRock’s BUIDL fund alone holds more than $2.5 billion in tokenized treasuries. Meanwhile, traditional infrastructure providers continue moving workflows onto blockchain rails. However, even projects like the DTCC’s planned tokenized assets launch largely preserve scheduled settlement cycles. As issuance scales, attention now shifts to lifecycle management on chain. Therefore, streaming cash flows close one of the last visible gaps between tokenized issuance and tokenized servicing. Markets that have cleared the issuance hurdle now need the back-office equivalent, and Archax has placed an early bet on what it looks like.
