How Does Yield Farming Work in DeFi?
Yield farming is a strategy in DeFi where users stake or lend their crypto assets to earn rewards:
How It Works – Users deposit assets into DeFi platforms to earn interest, governance tokens, or trading fees as rewards.
Types of Yield Farming:
Liquidity Mining – Users provide liquidity to AMMs like Uniswap and earn additional tokens.
Lending/Borrowing – Users lend crypto on Aave or Compound and earn interest.
Staking – Users stake tokens in PoS networks or DeFi protocols for rewards.
Risks – Smart contract bugs, impermanent loss, and rug pulls can result in financial losses.
Popular Platforms – Uniswap, Aave, Curve Finance, and Yearn Finance.
Potential Rewards – High yields but also high risks, requiring careful strategy and risk management.
