Our featured pool this week is Beefy ETH-USD Market Making. This pool is well-suited for investors looking to gain long-term exposure to ETH while mitigating volatility, due to its potential for passive income through trading fees, strategic liquidity management, and additional rewards. Risks include multiple smart contract dependencies, ETH price exposure, and potential loss from the pool's rebalancing strategies. Your yield consists of trading fees from the buying and selling of WETH and USDC.e stablecoins on the Arbitrum blockchain.
