This can result in a lower dollar value upon withdrawal.***\n\n***Keep in mind that the DeFi space can be volatile and subject to smart contract vulnerabilities.***\n\n---\n\nBefore we move on to the main theme of this post, let’s understand how yields work from bank deposits.\n\nhttps://preview.redd.it/7u5b2dkoik2d1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9a12fe5bef47f4bc921c902509d253628e4325ef\n\nWhen you deposit money in a bank, the bank pools these deposits and uses them to issue loans or to invest. The bank earns interest on these loans/investments, and pays a portion of this interest back to the depositors as yields.\n\nThis process is generally stable, but yields are usually low due to low interest rates and inflation reducing the value of Fiat over time.\n\nIn comparison, liquidity pools in the decentralized finance space, work by allowing investors to provide liquidity for trading pairs. When you provide liquidity, you earn a share of the trading fees and sometimes additional rewards, in the form of tokens.\n\nThe example I will use here is the ETH/DONUT pool on Sushi.com. There is also a liquidity pool on Uniswap, on the Mainnet. This example is only for Sushi.com, on the Arbitrum One network.\n\n---\n\nLP links:\n\n* [ETH/DONUT pool on Sushi.com, Arbitrum One](https://www.sushi.com/pool/42161%3A0x65f7a98d87bc21a3748545047632fef4d3ff9a67)\n* [ETH/DONUT pool on Uniswap, Mainnet](https://app.uniswap.org/explore/pools/ethereum/0x718Dd8B743ea19d71BDb4Cb48BB984b73a65cE06)\n\n---\n\nCurrently, providing liquidity in the ETH/DONUT pool (Sushi.com) offers an APR of 17.29% **(at the time of writing; please note it may, and most likely will change over time)**, significantly higher than traditional bank yields.\n\nNow, while traditional bank deposits offer stability and lower risk, the returns are minimal as a consequence. On the other hand, liquidity pools can be more volatile, but offer substantially higher rewards.\n\nThe DeFi space is innovative and fairly recent. Projects like DONUT being closely linked to Ethereum, increase their value proposition.\n\nBut why ETH/DONUT and not ETH/something else, or simply ETH?\n\nInvestors benefit from holding ETH, a leading crypto with proven potential for appreciation over time, while earning DONUT rewards. The strong point of this type of investment is that it doesn't require investors to have large amounts of capital to invest, to make the return worthwhile.\n\nDONUT is unique due to its close integration with the Ethereum ecosystem, and its strong community support. By providing liquidity in the ETH/DONUT pool, investors can earn significant rewards.\n\nThe EthTrader community allocates 100K DONUTs monthly, from its treasury, to incentivize liquidity providers. This makes it an attractive option for (early) investors, in a small market cap token with promising developers behind it.\n\nLet's consider an example for earnings potential. With an APR of 17.29%, a $1,000 investment in the ETH/DONUT pool could yield returns of around $14.40 a month. Could be more, or less, as APR is fairly volatile.\n\nAdditionally, with the treasury's allocation of 100K DONUTs monthly, an investor could earn around 666 DONUTs per month, along with the fees (assuming the position's value corresponds to $1K). **Note: this specific reward depends on the number of liquidity providers and the size of their positions, as well as governance polls that might adjust the monthly allocation. This estimate was made through a personal experiment, with a $1,000 position over one month.**\n\nhttps://preview.redd.it/zepac3m3mk2d1.jpg?width=511&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef025907239b01ac714059c6190af9778a7cc77c\n\nInvesting in liquidity pools like the ETH/DONUT pool, offers an opportunity to earn higher passive income, compared to traditional bank deposits. Naturally, there are higher risks due to market volatility, but the potential rewards make it a strong investment option.",
