With Decentralized Finance (DeFi), transactions are done without third-parties and new ways to earn have emerged. DeFi’s liquidity pools have enabled token swapping without a traditional order book, simplifying the swapping process. Dexlyn is one of the easy platforms to use in earning passive income through liquidity pools, and also integrating with the AMM, thus enhancing the system’s liquidity and efficiency. 

Defining Liquidity Pools 

What is a Liquidity Pool?  

Simply put, a liquidity pool is a collection of tokens kept in a smart contract and pooled together. In trade, a liquidity pool acts as a substituted order book, allowing trades to be done without the third-party intermediary traditionally required. 

How Do Liquidity Pools Work?  

How a liquidity pool operates is simple in principle. Users insert tokens into a pool, say in this case ($ETH/$USDT). 

• Token pairs: Inserted into a pool are pairs of tokens
• Automated Market Makers (AMMs): Algorithms use the proportion of tokens in a pool to set market prices of the tokens. 
• Trading Fee Distribution: Users earning a specific share of the pool fee.

In a participant’s point of view, they provide structure through sophisticated rewards and ease of token swaps. Thus giving a competitive identity to the initiative. These sorts of systems can be found at decentralized exchanges, the most popular being Dexlyn.

Types of Pools in Dexlyn

1. Single-Sided Pools

Single-sided pools are much more convenient than multi-sided pools. Users only have to upload one asset which makes the pools easier to manage. Users also do not have to deal with pricing multiple assets.   

2. Two-Sided (Dual Token) Pools

Dual-sided pools are easier to access and more popular. Users must submit ratio-bound pairs of tokens. This type of pool is beneficial because they are more adaptable and earn more from trading fees.  

3. Cross-Chain Liquidity Pools (Upcoming Feature)

Cross-chain liquidity pools are planned to be added to Dexlyn. This feature allows liquidity to be added across multiple blockchains in a single action.  

Benefits of Liquidity Pools  

> Passive Income: Each swap done in the pool earns the user trading fees.   

> DexlynDAO Tokens: Other rewards apart from the mentioned DexlynDAO tokens are also provided.   

> Lower Slippage: Liquidity added to the system allows for more effective trading by the users.   

> Progression of Ecosystem: Lending liquidity to trade in a decentralized manner funds the further development of DeFi.  

Concerns Regarding Liquidity Pools  

Impermanent Loss:  

Adding liquidity causes tokens volatile in price.

One transparent way to reduce this could be to set limits regarding which liquidity pools to take up, especially on the most active or stablecoin ones.   

Intelligent Contracts Risk:  

Also, the risk of bugs or exploits of the DeFi platform of even the audited contracts has its risks, and so does the way Dexlyn deals with it.  

Market Fluctuations:  

The possibility exists that the volatility of the prices may lead to drastic changes in the worth of the tokens in the pool and in effect the aggregate returns.

Real Life Example of Earning Passive Income on Dexlyn Use Case

Imagine a dual token pool where liquidity providers provide USD pegged stable coins as a base pair and an ETH token.

Your contribution is one thousand dollars worth of tokens.

Over time, the user earns ETH and USDT trading fees in proportion to the value of his trading volumes each time a swap transaction is executed.

Your income is passive and constant as trading volume increases, trading activity on the platform.

We expect continued improvement and development of the platform.
