Is Exponential similar to Celsius or BlockFi?

No, Exponential was built directly as a response to Celsius and BlockFi’s lack of transparency on risks and where the yield comes from.

First of all, Exponential provides direct access to the financial instruments that generate yield (liquidity pools). We tell you exactly where and how yields are generated. All user orders are settled on chain, so you can verify the specific protocols and pools your funds are in.

Second, we do not take a cut of your yield and we never rehypothecate assets to increase our profits at your expense. Your investments are always held 1:1 and sit in a cold storage vault that is secured by Multi-Party Computation (MPC) technology.

Lastly, we want to empower you to make informed decisions by providing detailed insights into the risks and returns of each DeFi pool. You choose where to invest based on your financial goals.

What are the tax implications of investing with ETH?

Investing is exciting, but don't forget about the tax implications! Earning yield on ETH is considered income, taxable when received. Plus, you’ll need to manage capital gains tax on any sales or exchanges. Don’t worry, though—we’ve got you covered. At Exponential, we track all your activities and provide a detailed summary at the end of the year to make tax time a breeze.
