- Transparent: Current fee shown before each trade
All fees are distributed to liquidity providers.
Why did my trade fail?
Common reasons:
- Insufficient gas - Keep 0.1 HYPE for transaction fees
- Low slippage tolerance - Increase to 1-2%
- Price movement - Retry the transaction
- Token approval needed - One-time approval required for new tokens
What is slippage?
Slippage tolerance is the maximum price difference you'll accept between order placement and execution:
- 0.5% - Minimal price variance
- 1-2% - Standard tolerance
- 5%+ - High tolerance for volatile conditions
Liquidity Questions
What is concentrated liquidity?
Concentrated liquidity allows providers to allocate capital within specific price ranges rather than across the entire price curve, resulting in higher capital efficiency.
How much can I earn as an LP?
Returns depend on:
- Trading volume - Higher volume generates more fees
- Price range - Narrower ranges can yield higher returns but require more management
- Pool competition - Your proportional share of liquidity
Historical APYs have varied from 20% to over 200%.
What is impermanent loss?
Impermanent loss occurs when the relative price of deposited tokens changes. This loss only becomes permanent upon withdrawal. Fee earnings often offset this risk.
Can I lose money?
Yes, liquidity provision carries risks including impermanent loss and being out of range. However, fee earnings can compensate for these risks. Consider starting with smaller positions while learning.
Points & Token Questions
How do points work?
Simple:
- Trading: 0.01 points per dollar
- Liquidity: 0.24 points per dollar per day
- Tiers: Multiply everything up to 1.5x!
When will the token launch?
The hx.finance token generation event (TGE) date will be announced 30 days in advance through official channels.
What is HXP?
HXP is our on-chain points token that runs parallel to standard points:
- 1:1 ratio with standard points
- Automatically minted as you earn
- Blockchain verified for transparency
- May become tradeable in the future
Both HXP and standard points convert equally to hx.finance tokens at TGE.
Can I buy points?
No. Points can only be earned through platform usage, ensuring fair distribution.
What happens to my points?
At TGE, points convert to hx.finance tokens. Your allocation = (your points ÷ total points) × 33% of total supply.
