Exponential now operates fully under @yield, powering YO Risk.
While it's closing as a standalone product, its work is not ending. Through YO Risk, Exponential will guide the yield engine to deliver a simpler and safer way to earn onchain.

The end goal has always been to enable a crypto economy where anyone can easily earn reliable, transparent yield across DeFi.
So the next unlock is not just showing people where yield exists. It is helping them access it intelligently, continuously, and at scale.

Pistachio Fi x Exponential Fi
Exponential built independent DeFi risk scoring.
Their framework maps 1,000 risk vectors across assets, protocols, and blockchains using what they call the Exponential DeFi Graph: a dependency map that traces how risk compounds across DeFi's interconnected layers.
The output is a letter grade from A to F. No payment for favorable scores.
Every vault in Pistachio Earn carries an Exponential rating visible before you deposit. You see APY and risk together, not APY alone.
Welcome, @exponentialdefi.

Yield is just compensation for risk.
Prioritizing risk-adjusted returns over blind APY chasing is the way to build sustainable, capital-preserving strategies.

Where yield aggregators focus on APY, @yield focuses on how it is generated.
And the lens with which it focuses with is through @ExponentialDeFi's, the visionaries behind the risk framework that guides the YO protocol.
So what actually makes a yield source worth allocating to?

Why did YO choose @AcrossProtocol WBTC as a yield source for yoBTC?
✅ BTC-denominated yield from real crosschain demand
✅ Fees earned via intent-based bridging
✅ Canonical rollup security with optimistic verification
@ExponentialDeFi rates Across WBTC as “low risk” (B).

Beyond data improvements, Fusaka delivers tangible user experience enhancements and security upgrades:
• Apps can now offer "early confirmations" that feel almost instant by peeking ahead to see who will propose the next block
• Wallet security gets modernized through device-native passkey support (Face ID, fingerprints, hardware-backed security)
• New transaction size limits prevent oversized operations from slowing the entire network
• Slightly increased block capacity gives the base layer more breathing room for daily activity

Top crypto DeFi news this week 🗞️
🔹 Tokenized gold shines as crypto investors search for safety. While DeFi TVL fell from $177B to $118B and BTC dropped 24% this month, tokenized commodities grew to $3.63B market cap with 167,400 holders.
🔹 Yearn's yETH vault hit by complex $9M exploit. Attacker minted "infinite yETH," drained ~$9M from Curve pools, routed 1,000 ETH through Tornado Cash before team recovered $2.4M in pxETH.
🔹 DeFi TVL drop masks steady growth under the hood. Despite 30.9% TVL fall from $178B to $123B since October, DEX volumes hit $360B in November and Aave TVL at $32B nearly doubled from last year.
