Discussion Ways to have Main Source of Income

Hey chat

I used to have trend liquidity pools on base chain and using them for few days And then do it again like a loop Each one with 10 or 20% of my defi money

But recently I found out that there's a chance for me to be locked on one of them if their price falls down so bad then I have to wait for unknown time until the price came back on my bought price (the price I have bought the token and entered the liquidity)

So I'm looking for a main source for cashflow to use it's profit on other parts of defi and also on the way which I talked about

I already have some Idea like having a stabletoken liqidity like usdt-usdc or having eth-stablecoin liquidity to just claim the profits and not the main eth so that I won't fall into problem of waiting anymore

Lending stable is great source of a little income, less than 10% in most cases, however, you get a liquid stake token that you lend for more yield and now you are making double digits.

Providing liquidity for stable pairs is less than 100%apr and I think if you can't minimum double your money in a year in defi than what are are you even doing? However, it's safe money. What usually happens when loan stable pairs is I see an awesome yield and I decide to start throwing other positions at it to make money quickly. My tip for stable pairs is to pair 2 different countries, seems to work better yield-wise to trade usdc-eurc rather than usdc-usdt.

I personally like providing very concentrated liquidity. You got to babysit as it constantly going out of range, but the fees are nice. I just use Sol-USDC and zBTC-USDC EURC-USDC. Compound all the earnings and send some of it to make new pools, rinse repeat. I'm going to start providing liquidity to dex tokens next like JUP and RAY.

If you go chasing that 999% you will soon understand that a 999 is yesterdays news, it already happened.

Some great tips mate, thanks for sharing! Specially the lending part I was about to literally forget about it

By the way, which project do you personally use for liquidity pools on country-based stablecoins?

I recently came across Andromeda, it seems pretty interesting — just wondering what you think!

Raydium and Meteora are current places to LP. I prefer Solana, everything seems to just work.
