Exponential
An investment platform that makes it easy to discover, assess, and invest in DeFi yield opportunities
About Exponential
Exponential is a US-based investment platform that specializes in providing opportunities for cryptocurrency holders to earn yield through decentralized finance (DeFi). The company operates in the burgeoning DeFi market, serving clients who hold cryptocurrencies and are looking to earn passive income on their holdings.
In simple terms, DeFi is a financial system built on blockchain technology that operates without the need for traditional financial intermediaries like banks. Instead, it uses smart contracts on blockchains, the most common being Ethereum. Exponential allows its clients to earn money not only from the increase in value of their cryptocurrencies but also from the yield they earn by investing in DeFi opportunities.
Exponential's business model is centered around making DeFi investing easy and transparent. The company's experts identify and curate the best DeFi investment opportunities, allowing clients to simply choose an opportunity, invest their crypto, and watch their investment grow. The company holds all funds 1:1, meaning clients can withdraw their funds at any time.
To ensure the safety and security of its clients' funds, Exponential has implemented multiple layers of security and built-in controls. The company also provides simple portfolio management tools, making it easy for clients to track their investment performance and report their taxes.
Exponential is licensed by the US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) and is backed by Paradigm, a leading crypto investment firm.
