How this rate has behaved
ARB shows up in 8 pools here, with rates from 0.06% to 244.65% APY across 1 chains — the rate depends on which protocol and chain you pick, not just the token.
8 of these 8 pools have a trustworthy 30-day average on file, with a median of 6.84% — a useful check against today's number for whether the rate is steady or just having a good day.
All 8 pools pay a plain base rate right now — no incentive or reward APY mixed in.
6 of 8 pools carry impermanent-loss risk, meaning a two-sided position can lose value against just holding, even while it earns yield.

| uniswap-v3 | 38.78% | 19.96% | Base rate |
| aave-v3 | 0.06% | 0.08% | Base rate |

The 30-day average comes straight from DefiLlama and only appears when it passes the same sanity rail as every other number on this page — a dash means it didn't clear that bar, not that it's being hidden. Every pool here already clears a $100K minimum TVL. Rates move daily, so treat this as a snapshot, not a promise.
