How it works

Liquidity pools enable users to permissionlessly swap assets across different  blockchains by contributing to pools of paired assets. Liquidity  providers earn transaction fees for facilitating these trades.

Symmetric
Staking an equal USD amount on both sides of a pool. Example: If you want to deposit 10 ETH in a ETH:DAI pool symetrically, and ETH is worth $350, you would need to deposit 10 ETH and 3,500 DAI.
Asymmetric
When you only stake an asset for one side of a pool, and let the pool balance itself out, or allow the system to perform a swap on your behalf. Example: If you want to deposit 10 ETH in a ETH:DAI pool, and ETH is worth $350, your 10 ETH would trade 5 ETH to $3500 DAI upon deposit.

Risks

While participating in THORChain liquidity pools through ShapeShift can be rewarding, it's important to understand the associated risks. Market volatility can affect asset values, and impermanent loss may occur when the price of your deposited assets changes compared to when you entered the pool. We encourage all users to fully understand these aspects to make informed decisions about their investments.

What is the difference between depositing asymmetrically and symmetrically?

  • An asymmetrical deposit in a liquidity pool allows users to contribute just one type of asset instead of a pair, simplifying the process of adding liquidity. A symmetrical deposit is a method used when adding liquidity to a pool where the investor provides equal values of two different assets.

ShapeShift says I don’t have enough funds to provide liquidity on THORChain. Why can’t I deposit or withdraw from my THORChain LP?

  • Transactions on THORChain require gas, which must be available in your  originating address and cannot be paid from your liquidity pool (LP)  position. Ensure your originating address has sufficient gas to perform  transactions, including deposits and withdrawals from your THORChain LP.ShapeShift can help you consolidate UTXO’s (Bitcoin, Dogecoin, Litecoin) from other address’ through a self-send transaction, provided you have an adequate balance in another address.
