What is Impermanent Loss?

Impermanent Loss (IL) is the difference between holding tokens in a liquidity pool versus simply holding them in your wallet. It occurs when the price ratio of your deposited tokens changes.

The "loss" is called "impermanent" because it only becomes permanent when you withdraw your liquidity. If prices return to their original ratio, the IL disappears.

IL = 2 × √(price_ratio) / (1 + price_ratio) - 1

🎯 Concentrated Liquidity IL

Concentrated liquidity (used by Uniswap v3, Meteora DLMM, etc.) amplifies both your fee earnings AND your impermanent loss.

The narrower your price range, the higher the concentration factor. A ±10% range has roughly 3x amplification compared to full-range liquidity.

Concentration Factor

±50% range = ~1.4x amplification
±25% range = ~2x amplification
±10% range = ~3.2x amplification
±5% range = ~4.5x amplification

💡 Tips to Minimize Impermanent Loss

1. Choose Correlated Pairs

Stablecoin pairs (USDC/USDT) or same-asset pairs (stETH/ETH) have minimal IL since prices move together.

2. Earn Higher Fees

High-volume pools generate more trading fees that can offset IL. Look for pools with APR higher than potential IL.

3. Use Wider Ranges

In concentrated liquidity, wider ranges reduce amplification. Accept lower fees for lower IL risk.

4. Time Your Entry

Enter positions during low volatility periods. IL is worse when prices move quickly after you deposit.
