Compound
Liquidity that reinvests itself. If you can make a swap, you already know how to use it.
What you get
Deposit once. From then on your fees stop sitting idle and go straight back to work as more liquidity, earning fees of their own. No claiming, no restaking, no weekly chore.
How it works, in short
Everyone in a vault owns a share of a single pooled Uniswap v3 position. That is what makes automatic compounding affordable at all: compounding one position costs one transaction no matter how many depositors are in it, while a thousand separate positions would cost a thousand.
Your share count never moves. What each share is worth does, and that is the whole mechanism.
Traders pay a fee
Every swap through the pool pays 1.000% of its size. The pool keeps a share before any liquidity provider sees a wei, leaving 0.833% to the liquidity itself.
Fees fold back in
After our cut, 0.825% of the volume goes straight back into the position. It folds in whenever someone deposits, and between those anyone can trigger it, including you.
Each share grows
One position is compounded for everyone at once, which is the only reason doing it automatically is affordable. Nothing to claim, nothing to restake.
Built so the numbers cannot be gamed
The share maths is denominated in Uniswap liquidity rather than in dollars. That quantity cannot be moved by sending tokens to the contract and does not change when the price changes, so joining and leaving are immune to price manipulation, which is the usual way vaults holding volatile pairs get attacked.
Anything that moves funds checks spot against a time-weighted average first and refuses to act on a price somebody just pushed. And when the last holder leaves, the entire position comes out with them, including fees too small to have been collected yet. Nothing is ever stranded.
Numbers you can trust
Most calculators in this category are built to flatter. This one is built to be right, and a test fails the build if any of these slip.
- No annualised 24 hour windows. An APR appears only for a pool that trades on at least half its days with no single day dominating. The naive version of this prints 7,500% APR for a pool that traded once in a month. We would rather show you nothing than show you that.
- Every pool wears its trading history on the card itself, never buried in a tooltip, so you can tell a pool that earns steadily from one that had a single busy day and went quiet.
- The projection can show a loss, and does when the maths says so. Most tools in this category have no negative branch at all.
- Each pool's real fee tier is used. Assuming the 1% tier everywhere would have overstated one pool's yield by 83x.
- A dash means we do not know, never that the answer is zero.
Where to go next
- How it works covers share accounting, who is allowed to compound, and how the vault handles a pushed price.
- Fees is the full waterfall, down to the last thousandth of a percent.
- Token covers $COMPOUND, where its fees go, and why it has no power over the vaults.
- Risks is the plain-spoken version of what providing liquidity does and does not do. Worth reading before you deposit.
- Contracts is addresses, sizes, and the gate every pool has to pass.
