Hey Edge readers,

Tracking your DeFi earnings can get messy, especially when you’re spread across multiple pools with different variations of the same asset exposure. Whether you’re in WBTC, cbBTC, tBTC, or another BTC derivative, what you really care about is how much yield you’re earning on your Bitcoin holdings. That’s why we’re spotlighting our new unified portfolio experience. It gives you a clear, real-time view of how much yield you’re earning on each core asset (BTC, ETH, SOL, or stablecoins). If you haven’t checked it out yet, it’s the simplest way to monitor your performance, identify idle assets, and make smarter allocation decisions across your portfolio.

Stay sharp. 🫡

Unlock smarter DeFi yield with our unified portfolio experience

The DeFi revolution is evolving, and so are we. At Exponential, we’re making it easier than ever to earn secure, high-quality yield on your crypto. After extensive user feedback and ongoing development, we recently introduced a new unified portfolio experience that further simplifies yield tracking, helping investors of all experience levels optimize their crypto earnings.

A smarter way to track earnings

Our new portfolio view gives you a real-time breakdown of how much yield you’re earning across every core asset in your portfolio. Currently we support Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and stablecoins.

For example, your portfolio might display:

• Bitcoin: $33,450 total balance, +6.7% yield

• Ethereum: $8,000 total balance, +13.3% yield

• Solana: $18,432 total balance, +15.3% yield

• Cash: $16,948 total balance +10.1% yield

This feature provides clarity on your earnings across key assets, automatically reinvests rewards through our auto-compounding system, and highlights idle balances that could be put to work for higher returns. No more guesswork, just real-time visibility and smarter decision-making.

How we curate the best yield opportunities

We carefully select DeFi pools before listing to ensure that every yield opportunity we offer is backed by deep research and rigorous risk assessments:

• Institutional-grade risk assessment: We evaluate smart contract security, liquidity risks, and market volatility, rating DeFi protocols from "Lowest" to "Very high" risk.

• Data-driven selection: Using insights from sources like DefiLlama and onchain analytics, we ensure our curated pools offer sustainable yield and sufficient liquidity.

• Expert-driven research: Our team continuously monitors the DeFi landscape, surfacing only the most reliable, high-performing yield opportunities for our users.

In the news 🗞️

• DeFi’s “boring” era is exactly why it’s thriving. Longtime macro investor Dan Tapiero says DeFi has quietly matured since its wild “DeFi Summer” days, now generating over 10x the revenue with little hype. He noted that institutions are starting to adopt crypto rails like stablecoins for settlement, but full-scale institutional involvement is still early.

• Tokenized private credit brings DeFi innovation to TradFi. A new wave of blockchain-powered lending is reshaping the $1.7 trillion private credit market by unlocking real-time settlements, fractional ownership, and programmable liquidity through tokenization. This model aims to replace slow, opaque TradFi processes with DeFi’s composability and transparency, making high-yield credit products more accessible.

• Avalanche stablecoin supply jumps 70% to $2.5B, but DeFi activity lags. Despite the influx of stablecoins, AVAX has dropped nearly 60% over the past year as much of the new liquidity remains idle. Analysts say stablecoins appear to be held in treasuries rather than deployed in lending or swaps, limiting demand for AVAX as gas or collateral. Nansen predicts the broader crypto market could bottom by June, depending on how US tariff negotiations unfold.
