# Tapioca: earn DeFi yield without the complexity

> Tapioca is a non-custodial yield platform on Base. Deposit assets, earn on-chain yield, and manage your position — all without a separate wallet app.

Tapioca makes on-chain yield accessible to everyone. Built on Base (Coinbase's L2 network), Tapioca lets you deposit assets and earn yield using battle-tested DeFi protocols — with no gas fees, no seed phrases to manage, and no approvals to sign every time you interact.

Under the hood, Tapioca uses ERC-4337 account abstraction and EIP-7702 Session Keys to give you a seamless experience that feels like a traditional app while remaining fully non-custodial.

## Why Tapioca?

Most DeFi platforms require you to manage wallets, pay gas fees, and manually approve every transaction. Tapioca removes this friction:

* **No gas fees** — Tapioca covers transaction costs via ERC-4337 paymasters.
* **No separate wallet required** — Sign in with email and an embedded wallet is created for you automatically via Privy.
* **Non-custodial** — Your smart account is yours. Tapioca never holds your private keys.
* **Seamless interactions** — Session Keys let you interact with the protocol without signing each individual transaction.
* **Transparent** — Every yield strategy and integration is documented here.
