How this rate has behaved
BOLD shows up in 8 pools here, with rates from 0.21% to 13.07% APY across 2 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 3.42% — a useful check against today's number for whether the rate is steady or just having a good day.
5 of 8 pools blend in incentive or reward APY on top of the base rate. Incentive yield decays over time as reward programs run down — the base rate is the more durable number.
1 of 8 pools carries impermanent-loss risk, meaning a two-sided position can lose value against just holding, even while it earns yield.

| uniswap-v4 | 2.78% | 2.35% | Base rate |
| uniswap-v3 | 0.34% | 0.70% | Base rate |
| stake-dao-yield | 5.37% | 4.49% | 89.02% incentives |

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.
