How to Provide Liquidity ​

Providing liquidity on Lithos allows you to earn trading fees, emissions, and incentives while supporting healthy markets.

Step-by-Step Guide ​

1. Connect Wallet
Open the Lithos app and connect your wallet. Ensure your network is set to Plasma.

2. Select a Pool
Navigate to the Pools section. Pools are categorized by type:

  • Stable Pools: For correlated assets like USDT/USDC. Low slippage and low fees.
  • Volatile Pools: For uncorrelated pairs like LITH/XPL. Designed for price discovery, with standard fees.

3. Add Tokens
Choose the pool and input the amount of tokens to deposit. The app will automatically calculate the required ratio.

  • Example: Adding USDT/USDC to a stable pool requires equal values of both tokens.
  • Example: Adding LITH/XPL to a volatile pool requires both tokens in the current pool ratio.

4. Approve & Confirm
Approve the tokens in your wallet and confirm the liquidity transaction. You’ll receive LP tokens representing your share of the pool.

5. Stake in a Gauge (Optional)
If the pool has a gauge, you can stake LP tokens directly into it. Staking enables you to earn:

  • LITH emissions based on veLITH voting.
  • Voting incentives (bribes) deposited by partners.

6. Track Rewards
Go to the Portfolio or Rewards tab to see accrued fees, emissions, and incentives.
