};

## Prerequisites

<Warning>
  Before providing liquidity, ensure you have:

  * A NEAR-compatible wallet connected (23 wallet options available)
  * Both tokens of the pair you want to provide (e.g., NEAR and USDC)
  * Small amount of NEAR for gas fees (\~0.1 NEAR)
  * Understanding of [concentrated liquidity](/concepts/concentrated-liquidity) and impermanent loss risks
</Warning>

## Become a Liquidity Provider

Earn trading fees by providing liquidity to Vita pools. With concentrated liquidity, you can earn significantly higher fees compared to traditional AMMs.

<Info>
  **New to DeFi?** Providing liquidity means depositing tokens into a pool where traders can swap. You earn a portion of the trading fees (default 0.3% on all trades).
</Info>

## The 3-Step Process

<Steps>
  <Step title="Select your token pair">
    Choose from existing pools or create a new one
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set your price range">
    Narrow ranges earn more fees but require more management
  </Step>

  <Step title="Deposit tokens and mint NFT">
    Your position becomes an NFT you can manage, boost, or farm
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Step 1: Select Your Token Pair

### Browse Available Pools

<Frame caption="Navigate to the Liquidity page to see all available pools">
  <img className="block dark:hidden" src="https://mintcdn.com/vita-29cb4832/0BX7ec2JKnkM5V86/images/screenshots/liquidity-hero.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=0BX7ec2JKnkM5V86&q=85&s=289e0d8bc11caaf703bba7690c920ddb" alt="Liquidity pools overview page" width="2562" height="2180" data-path="images/screenshots/liquidity-hero.png" />

</Frame>

Navigate to the Liquidity page to see all available pools with key metrics like TVL, volume, and your deposited positions.

    **USDC / DAI**\
    Very stable, perfect for conservative strategies

    **wBTC / BTC.b**\
    Stable BTC pairs across bridges

### Understanding Your Options

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What makes a good pair?" icon="circle-question">
    Consider these factors:

    * **Trading Volume:** Higher volume = more fees
    * **Volatility:** Stable pairs = less impermanent loss
    * **Your Holdings:** Use tokens you already own
    * **Correlation:** Similarly moving tokens work well together
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="New pool creation" icon="plus">

## Step 2: Set Your Price Range

### Pool Detail View

<Frame caption="The pool detail page shows current price and liquidity distribution">

</Frame>

The pool detail page shows current price, liquidity distribution, and preset range options to help you choose.

### Understanding Fee Distribution

All pools charge a default **0.3% trading fee** on every swap. The fees are distributed through protocol\_fee\_rate and community\_fee\_rate configurations.

**Fee distribution:**

* Liquidity providers earn the majority of fees
* Protocol and community vaults receive configured portions
* xVITA stakers benefit from protocol revenue

  <Step title="Review Details">
    Double-check:

    * Token amounts
    * Price range (tick\_lower and tick\_upper)
    * Default 0.3% fee
    * Minimum amounts (amount0\_min, amount1\_min)
  </Step>

  <Step title="Approve Tokens">
    First-time only: Approve the contract to use your tokens
  </Step>

  <Step title="Mint Position">
    Confirm the transaction to mint your position NFT
  </Step>

  <Step title="Receive NFT">

## Common Strategies

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Wide Range (Beginners)" icon="shield">
    **Best for: New LPs, volatile markets**

    * Set range ±20-50% from current price
    * Lower returns but safer
    * Requires less monitoring
    * Good for learning

    **Example: NEAR at \$5**

    * Min: \$2.50 (-50%)
    * Max: \$7.50 (+50%)
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Narrow Range (Advanced)" icon="target">
    **Best for: Stable pairs, active management**

    * Set range ±1-10% from current price
    * Higher returns but riskier
    * Requires frequent adjustments
    * Maximum fee generation

    **Example: USDC/USDT at 1.00**

    * Min: 0.995 (-0.5%)
    * Max: 1.005 (+0.5%)
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Range Orders (Pro)" icon="chart-line">
    **Best for: Taking profits, buying dips**

    Use single-sided liquidity as limit orders:

    * Above market: 100% token A (sell order)
    * Below market: 100% token B (buy order)

    **Example: Sell NEAR at \$6**

    * Min: \$6.00
    * Max: \$6.10
    * Deposit: 100% NEAR
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Risk Management

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Impermanent Loss">
    **Understanding IL Risk**

    Concentrated positions can experience higher IL:

    | Scenario                      | Impact                |
    | ----------------------------- | --------------------- |
    | Price stays in range          | Normal IL + High fees |
    | Price exits range temporarily | Some IL + No fees     |
    | Price exits range permanently | Max IL + No fees      |
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Gas Optimization">
    Tips to save on gas:

    * Add liquidity during low network usage
    * Collect fees when amounts are significant
    * Batch operations when possible
    * Use wider ranges if not actively managing
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Position Sizing">
    <Note>
      Never provide more liquidity than you're comfortable potentially losing. Start small and learn the mechanics before scaling up.
    </Note>

    **Recommended allocation:**

    | Experience   | Portfolio %                      |
    | ------------ | -------------------------------- |
    | Beginners    | 5-10%                            |
    | Intermediate | 10-25%                           |
    | Advanced     | Up to 50% with active management |
  </Tab>
</Tabs>

## Code Examples

<Warning>
  The following code examples are for illustration purposes. Always verify contract addresses and test thoroughly before using in production.
</Warning>

<CodeGroup>
  ```javascript Near-API-JS theme={null}
  // Direct contract interaction (no SDK available)
  const { connect, Contract, keyStores } = require("near-api-js");

  // Mint a new position
  const contract = new Contract(
    account,
    "[TBD]", // Contract address TBD
    {
      changeMethods: ["mint_position"],
    }
  );

  // Note: VITA uses 18 decimals, not 24
  await contract.mint_position({
    pool_id: "NEAR-USDC",
    tick_lower_index: -69300, // Example tick
    tick_upper_index: -46050, // Example tick
    amount0_desired: "1000000000000000000000000", // 1 NEAR (24 decimals)
    amount1_desired: "5000000", // 5 USDC (6 decimals)
    amount0_min: "990000000000000000000000", // 0.99 NEAR (1% slippage)
    amount1_min: "4950000" // 4.95 USDC (1% slippage)
  });
  ```

  ```bash NEAR-CLI theme={null}
