Liquidity pools

PreviousHow to tradeNextAdd / remove liquidity

Last updated 3 years ago

When you add your token to a Liquidity Pool you will receive Liquidity Provider (LP) tokens and share in the fees.

LP Tokens

As an example, if you deposited BLH and BNB into a Liquidity Pool, you'd receive BLH-BNB LP tokens. The number of LP tokens you receive represents your portion of the BLH-BNB Liquidity Pool.

You can also redeem your funds at any time by removing your liquidity.

Liquidity Providers earn trading fees

Providing liquidity gives you a reward in the form of trading fees when people use your liquidity pool.

Whenever someone trades on PancakeSwap, the trader pays a 0.30% fee, of which 0.15% is added to the Liquidity Pool of the swap pair they traded on.

For example:

  • There are 10 LP tokens representing 10 BLH and 10 BNB tokens.

  • 1 LP token = 1 BLH + 1 BNB

  • Someone trades 10 BLH for 10 BNB.

  • Someone else trades 10 BNB for 10 BLH.

  • The BLH/BNB liquidity pool now has 10.015 BLH and 10.015 BNB.

  • Each LP token is now worth 1.00015 BLH + 1.00015 BNB.

Impermanent Loss

Providing liquidity is not without risk, as you may be exposed to impermanent loss.

To make being a liquidity provider even more worth your while, you can also put your LP tokens to work whipping up some fresh yield on the , while still earning your 0.15% trading fee reward.
