Quick note, as per previous post, this is MOON which I swapped for other coins, not what I’ve earned on this sub. When adding liquidity, you should only add a maximum of 25% of your earned MOON, or your future pay-outs will be reduced.
I made a post a month ago, detailing how my decision to add MOON to the LP was getting on. It’s worth mentioning that I actually made a mistake in that post… I’d claimed that I was £85.80 better off, but I’d forgotten to account for the ETH, when adding that month’s rewards back in. I added £76.31 worth of additional ETH (matching the value of MOON rewards), so I was actually only £9.19 in the green.
Anyway, on to month two (spoiler alert – it’s not great)…
ETH is roughly the same price today as it was a month ago, but MOON has dropped a further 30% or so (currently down 43.88% since I added to the LP). As a result of this, impermanent loss has completely overwhelmed the £100.57 in rewards, and I’m sitting -£54.63 in the red. This is the big risk you take when providing liquidity – the value of one coin changing drastically, relative to the other. Despite this, I’ll continue to provide liquidity, re-stake my rewards, and add more ETH.
Hopefully, month three update will be a little more positive.
