Net asset value
The value of one token calculated from the assets behind it, less fees and liabilities, at a stated time.
NAV is the reference price for minting and redemption. It is published to four decimal places with the time it was calculated and the source of the valuation.
NAV is not the market price. A token can trade above or below NAV on a secondary market, and that difference is not a yield.
