Mixed Hives

Liquidity Mining with your favorite (non-stable) coin.

What is a Mixed Hive?

A Mixed Hive is a liquidity pool where one of the currencies is a stable- and one a normal coin/token. (e.g. BUSD and BNB).

Mixed Hives have higher APY but are considered to be more risky than Stablecoin Hives for two reasons:

  • Impermanent Loss

  • Volatility / Price Risk

If you want to invest in a Mixed Hive, you should trust the value of the non-stablecoin and assume a long-term investment.

What is Impermanent Loss?

Impermanent Loss happens, when the price of one of the tokens in a Hive(pool) loses value compared to the other and the liquidity provider is left with a unfavorable proportion. The counterpart of Impermanent Loss is Impermanent Win, which can also occur.

What is Volatility or Price Risk?

Because one token in the pair is a "normal" coin/token, it is obvious that the price can rise and fall during the time of your mining. Liquidity Mining in Mixed Hives is still a form of speculation and you will lose money when prices fall.

When should I be mining in Mixed Hives?

Mining in Mixed Hives makes sense if you have a long time-horizon and if you truly believe in the "normal" (non-stable) token of the pair.
