Liquidity pools are collections of tokens locked in smart contracts that enable decentralized trading and yield generation.
When you deposit tokens into a liquidity pool, you receive liquidity provider (LP) tokens representing your share. These LP tokens can then be staked in yield farms to earn additional rewards from the protocol's liquidity mining program.

Key considerations before providing liquidity
When token prices in your pool diverge significantly, you may end up with less value than simply holding the tokens.
More severe with volatile token pairs
Vulnerabilities in pool contracts could be exploited by hackers to drain funds.
Only use audited, established protocols
Yield rates can drop significantly as more liquidity enters the pool.
Early providers typically earn most
One token in your pair could lose value faster than the other.
Stablecoin pairs have lower risk
Ethereum network fees can eat into profits for small deposits.
Consider L2 solutions or other chains
Changing regulations could impact pool operations or rewards.
