Dexponent Collaborates with CoinDesk Indices to Launch Staking and Interest Rate Derivatives Targeting Institutional Investors.

Dexponent is thrilled to announce a collaboration with CoinDesk Indices to leverage CESRTM (Composite Ethereum Staking Rate) for benchmarking on our institutionally adopted Structured Product that’s globally available.

This enhances Dexponent’s compliant staking services with multiple layers of checks, enabling clients to earn high yields with low risk. These services are insured and protected by custodians and third-party insurance, emphasizing asset protection, hack-proof security, and no counterparty risk. 

Dexponent’s adoption of CESR will enhance traceability and transparency of their staking services. CESR is a benchmark rate for Ethereum staking rewards and provides participants in the Ethereum ecosystem with a standardized benchmark rate for staking and a settlement rate for derivative contracts. CESR was brought to market in 2023 by CoinFund, a leading Web3 and crypto-focused investment firm and registered investment adviser, in partnership with CoinDesk Indices, a leading provider of digital asset indices since 2014.

Innovative products by Dexponent are designed to provide institutional investors, including High Net-Worth Individuals (HNIs), Family Offices, Funds, and traditional finance companies across Asia, MENA, and Europe, with access to Ethereum staking and interest rate derivatives. This marks a significant milestone in bridging the gap between traditional finance and decentralized finance (DeFi).

With the recent surge in interest around Ethereum and the launch of Ethereum focused ETFs, institutional investors now have greater access to this leading digital asset. However, while ETFs offer exposure to Ethereum, they fall short of providing the staking yields that are crucial for maximizing returns on Ethereum holdings. Although some funds have begun to integrate staking yields into their offerings, these often come with high fees, custody risks, and suboptimal returns. 

Dexponent has leveraged CESR  to address these challenges with a unique approach that combines traditional fund structures with advanced on chain asset management. The joint product incorporates innovative algorithms, including MeV (Miner Extractable Value) boosts, and is benchmarked against a high quality index that blends the best of both traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). This combination offers investors the highest returns in the market at a fraction of the cost, with no lock-up periods and full insurance protection provided by institutional-grade service providers.

The product’s structured investment and yield generation mechanism, supported by CESR, ensures a reliable and transparent investment framework. Additionally, the inclusion of interest rate derivatives allows investors to hedge against any potential asset or yield downsides, providing a comprehensive solution for managing risk.
