How this rate has behaved
TBTC shows up in 8 pools here, with rates from 0.12% to 4.52% APY across 3 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 3.28% — a useful check against today's number for whether the rate is steady or just having a good day.
4 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.
3 of 8 pools carry impermanent-loss risk, meaning a two-sided position can lose value against just holding, even while it earns yield.
| Protocol | APY | 30d Mean APY | Yield mix |
|---|---|---|---|
| curve-dex | 0.12% | 0.25% | 67.89% incentives |
| curve-dex | 2.84% | 5.03% | Base rate |
| curve-dex | 3.37% | 3.56% | 61.76% incentives |
| convex-finance | 4.52% | 4.60% | 71.46% incentives |
| uniswap-v3 | 0.74% | 2.99% | Base rate |
| hydration-dex | 0.32% | 4.88% | Base rate |
| uniswap-v3 | 0.47% | 1.22% | Base rate |
| vesu | 2.00% | 2.00% | 100.00% 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.
