💫 Gamma

Website | Twitter
Ticker: GAMMA
TVL: $75.2M
Yield Source: Swap Fees, Token Incentives

🧐 What is it? Set-and-forget LP strategies

Gamma offers active management infrastructure for concentrated liquidity pools. The Protocol uses “Strategies” to actively manage liquidity, meaning LPs on Gamma have no need to manually reset tick ranges, claim compounded fees, or monitor their risk of impermanent loss!

Stakers of the Protocol’s governance token, GAMMA, earn a portion of fees accrued from all Gamma-managed pools. Currently, they are free to withdraw stake at their discretion, however, the Protocol’s V2 staking module will allow users to lock tokens for enhanced yields.

Protocols can partner with Gamma to distribute targeted liquidity incentives towards depositors of specific pools and strategies.
