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.
