# Yield Source

LPs who provide liquidity to a pTKN/Paired Asset pool (e.g., pOHM/ETH) earn yield from protocol fees triggered by:\
Wrap and unwrap actions\
Arbitrage between TKN and pTKN markets\
Continuous spot trading volume within the Pod’s LP

These interactions generate wrap fees, AMM buy/sell fees and >unwrap fees. Most of the fees are retained in the Pod, either directly (via auto-compounding LP Rewards) or indirectly (through CBR increases and pTKN burns).\ <br>

The AMM structure follows a standard x\*y=k invariant with full-range liquidity. This ensures pricing is always available and arbitrage remains frictionless, allowing value to be extracted consistently by LPs across market regimes.\
\
Unlike traditional liquidity sourcing schemes such as liquidity mining, where yield decreases as TVL scales, VF yield remains actually improves as TVL scales. This is because VF does not rely on diluting the token supply or short-term mercenary capital. Instead yield scales with protocol usage whilst LPs retain exposure to upside of CBR increases.

This structure avoids capital flight, incentivizes active market participation, and creates an enduring value base that aligns liquidity with demand rather than emissions. All parties benefit from markets scaling and maturing, which is a notable distinction when comparing to traditional yield farming models.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.peapods.finance/volatility-farming/yield-source.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
