Frequently Asked Questions
The loss is impermanent because if token prices return to their original ratio, the loss disappears. It only becomes permanent when you withdraw liquidity at a different price ratio than when you deposited.
Yes! If the trading fees earned by the pool exceed the impermanent loss, your overall return is positive. High-volume pools with tight spreads often generate enough fees to more than compensate for IL.
Stablecoin-to-stablecoin pools (like USDC/USDT) have negligible IL because the prices barely diverge. Concentrated liquidity positions and weighted pools also reduce IL exposure.
IL is specific to AMM liquidity provision. It occurs because the pool automatically rebalances your token holdings as prices change, effectively selling the appreciating token and buying the depreciating one.
