Earn Fees as a Liquidity Provider

Provide liquidity to trading pairs and earn a share of trading fees.

How It Works

Deposit equal values of two tokens into a pool. Traders use your liquidity, and you earn fees on every trade.

Staking and Liquidity Are Separate

Staking your XOM and providing DEX liquidity are two different, optional things you choose yourself — staking never automatically moves your tokens into a liquidity pool. If you want to do both, you stake XOM directly from your own wallet to the staking contract, and separately deposit tokens into a liquidity pool. Nothing is pooled or held by a third party in either case.

Impermanent Loss

Be aware that if prices change significantly, you might lose some value compared to just holding. This is called impermanent loss.
