How this rate has behaved
ZEST shows up in 3 pools here, with rates from 2.82% to 163.17% APY across 3 chains — the rate depends on which protocol and chain you pick, not just the token.
3 of these 3 pools have a trustworthy 30-day average on file, with a median of 38.38% — a useful check against today's number for whether the rate is steady or just having a good day.
All 3 pools pay a plain base rate right now — no incentive or reward APY mixed in.
3 of 3 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 |

| uniswap-v4 | 2.82% | 38.38% | 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.
