Liquidity Pools

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 COLOSO and BNB into a Liquidity Pool, you'd receive COLOSO-BNB LP tokens.

The number of LP tokens you receive represents your portion of the COLOSO-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 Coloso, the trader pays a 0.25% fee, of which 0.17% is added to the Liquidity Pool of the swap pair they traded on.

For example:

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

  • 1 LP token = 1 COLOSO + 1 BNB

  • Someone trades 10 COLOSO for 10 BNB.

  • Someone else trades 10 BNB for 10 COLOSO.

  • The COLOSO/BNB liquidity pool now has 10.017 COLOSO and 10.017 BNB.

  • Each LP token is now worth 1.00017 COLOSO + 1.00017 BNB.

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 Coloso Farms, while still earning your 0.17% trading fee reward.

Impermanent Loss

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