Yield Farming
Còn được gọi là: Liquidity Mining, Yield Optimization
A DeFi strategy of moving crypto assets between protocols to maximize returns through interest, fees, and token rewards.
Yield farming is a DeFi strategy where users actively move their crypto assets between different protocols to earn the highest possible returns. Returns come from a combination of trading fees, interest payments, and governance token rewards.
How Yield Farming Works:
- Deposit assets into a DeFi protocol (lending platform, DEX, etc.)
- Earn base yield (interest or trading fees)
- Receive governance tokens as additional rewards
- Optionally stake those tokens for more yield
- Move funds when better opportunities emerge
Common Yield Farming Strategies:
Liquidity Providing: - Supply assets to DEX liquidity pools - Earn trading fees + token incentives
Lending/Borrowing Loops: - Deposit assets as collateral - Borrow against collateral - Re-deposit borrowed assets - Earn rewards on both sides
Staking Governance Tokens: - Stake protocol tokens (CRV, AAVE, etc.) - Earn boosted yields and fee sharing
Risks of Yield Farming: - Smart Contract Risk: Bugs or exploits - Impermanent Loss: In liquidity pools - Token Devaluation: Reward tokens may drop in value - Gas Costs: Can eat into profits - Rug Pulls: Malicious projects
APY vs. APR: - APR: Simple annual rate without compounding - APY: Includes compounding effects (often much higher)
Yield farming powered the "DeFi Summer" of 2020 and remains a core DeFi activity, though returns have normalized from early triple-digit APYs.
