How this rate has behaved

SOL shows up in 8 pools here, with rates from 0.71% to 74.23% APY across 1 chains โ€” 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 7.07% โ€” 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 โ€” 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.

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 โ€” 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.
