There are 2 ways to provide liquidity:

  • Elixir Fusion Pools: Provide liquidity directly to any market's orderbook.

  • Spot Pools: Provide liquidity to the spot markets AMMs.


Elixir Fusion Pool

Fusion Pools enables users to participate in decentralized market-making by providing liquidity to the orderbook.

  • Fusion pools are enabled for every perpetual and spot market.

  • Fusion pools accept USDC deposits -- you do not need to deposit both assets for spot markets.

  • Providing liquidity to fusion pools and managing positions is done on the Elixir front-end.

Spot Pools

The Hybrid Orderbook-AMM design lets users provide liquidity to pools similar to that of conventional AMM DEXs.

Additionally, LP positions contribute to your account's available margin thanks to the exchange portfolio margining approach. This means that you can create an LP position and use it as a margin to trade.

LP positions use the non-USDC asset's weight to determine margin impact.
