🧠 Topic: How to choose#defi - pools, what to look at in analytics, and where to find safe yields without traps#cryptoland_88
🔍 Choosing a DeFi pool is not only about yield but also about risks, liquidity, tokenomics, and the project's sustainability. Let's figure out how to approach the choice wisely.
📊 1. Look at #TVL (Total Value Locked)
TVL is the total amount of funds locked in the pool.
📈 The higher the TVL → the greater the trust and liquidity
📉 Very low TVL → risk of low liquidity and sudden withdrawal of funds
💸 2. Analyze yield (APR/APY)
✅ APY = annual yield considering compound interest
⚠️ Suspiciously high yield (>100%+) = high risk of volatility or scam$BTC
Tip: compare with analogs in other protocols. If significantly higher — check the details.
🔗 3. Check the source of income
🔹 Trading fees?
🔹 Issuance of new tokens?
🔹 Partner incentives?
💡 Yield based on issuance is unstable. Fees are more reliable.
📉 4. Evaluate the risks of Impermanent Loss (#IL )
📍 Especially important for pairs with volatile assets
Tip: use IL calculators before adding liquidity
🔐 5. Audit and Security
🛡 Has the protocol been audited?
🔍 Check on sites: Certik, DefiSafety, GitHub of the project
🚨 Lack of audit is a warning sign$BNB
🔦 6. Tools for Analyzing DeFi Pools
🧠 Useful Platforms:
DeFiLlama — TVL, APY, protocols
APY.vision — yield + IL
DappRadar — DeFi statistics
Token Terminal — fundamental analysis
📌 Conclusion:
Don't chase x100 APR. Choose pools with stable tokens, reasonable yields, and transparent models. Also — assess risks before entering, not after.
