Farming Benchmarks:
Every farm below beats that baseline. When a rate looks too good relative to this range, that gap is usually the incentive/emissions component, not organic yield — check the breakdown in each card.
Earn up to 11% Stables and >5%on ETH:
Balancer – USDT0/USDe LP ~11.00% APR (Monad – V3 Stable LP)
A boosted stable pool pairing USDT0 with USDe (Ethena’s dollar-pegged stablecoin). Composition is 55.81% USDT0 / 44.19% USDe from 6 liquidity providers, wrapped into Aave-yield-bearing tokens. Breakdown of the 11.00% APR: 0.32% swap fees + 2.40% yield-bearing (from waMonUSDT0’s passive Aave lending yield) + 8.28% Merkl incentives. 75% of this yield is incentives, not organic
30d swap volume is $553,401 against $115,781 TVL — real trading activity exists, but it’s a small slice of the total return here.
Risk — Medium ⚠️
Most of this yield is temporary. 8.28 of the 11.00 points comes from a Merkl incentive campaign — if it ends or shrinks, the rate falls to roughly 2.7% (just fees + passive lending yield), a steep drop from the headline number.
Beyond that: USDe still carries some residual Ethena risk, TVL is thin at $115,781 so a large deposit or withdrawal could move the price meaningfully, and Monad is a newer network with less of a track record.
It runs on Balancer V3, which was not affected by the November 2025 V2 exploit.
PancakeSwap – USDT/USDC AMM Pool – 12%% Supply APY (BSC – Concentrated LP)
A standard USDT/USDC AMM pool on PancakeSwap (BSC). Both are centrally issued, fiat-backed stables — individually low-risk. The yield source, however, is 100% trading fees (this pool shows no separate reward token), and the historical APY chart spans from near-0% baseline to sharp spikes above 80% multiple times since 2024, with another spike visible right now pushing the live rate to 31.68%.
Why this matters: USDT/USDC is normally one of the lowest-volatility pairs in DeFi — trading volume and fees should be steady and low. Spikes to 30-80%+ APY on a pair like this typically indicate a temporary depeg or arbitrage event on one side of the pool (often a bridged or wrapped version of USDT/USDC on BSC trading briefly off-peg), driving a burst of arbitrage volume through the pool. That’s not free yield — it’s compensation for taking the other side of a depeg event, and LPs can end up holding the depegged asset if they’re in the pool when it happens.
Risk - Low ⚠️
This pool earns 100% from trading fees, and the APY chart swings from near zero to 30–80%+ in bursts — each spike is almost certainly a bridged USDT or USDC leg on BSC trading off-peg and arb volume routing through the pool.
That fee is compensation for holding the mispriced asset while everyone else is dumping it on you. Enter mid-spike and you either catch a few hours of elevated fees before the rate collapses, or you end up on the wrong side of the depeg and eat impermanent loss on a “stable” pair.
The 30-day stability rating is Mixed for exactly this reason.
TVL is thin ($201K), and BSC network and bridge risk applies to whichever stable is driving the volatility. Audited does not mean safe against this pattern — size it as an arb-exposure trade, not a parking spot.
Balancer – rETH/WETH LP – rETH + WETH –6.21% APR(Base – V3 ETH LST LP)
rETH (Rocket Pool’s liquid staking token, backed by a proportional claim on staked ETH across Rocket Pool’s validators, with node-operator ETH + RPL bonds absorbing slashing penalties first) paired with WETH on Base. Breakdown: 0.03% swap fees + 2.20% yield-bearing (waBasWETH 1.13% + rETH 1.08%) + 3.98% Merkl incentives, totaling 6.21%. Runs on Balancer V3.
This is the Base deployment of the WETH/rETH - same underlying assets, different network. TVL is smaller here ($342K) than on the mainnet, with modest but real organic swap volume ($642/24h).
Risk — Lower
Both legs are ETH, so impermanent loss is negligible, and Rocket Pool’s dual-layer slashing protection (node operator bonds plus RPL) is a real structural strength.
What you’re actually exposed to is the incentive: 3.98% of the 6.21% comes from Merkl, and Merkl figures on some Balancer pools have been double-counted recently — this pool hasn’t been individually confirmed either way, so verify the live figure on Merkl before assuming the full rate.
Organic swap fees are negligible ($642/24h), so if incentives lapse you’re left with roughly the underlying rETH/waBasWETH yield of ~2.2%.
TVL is small ($342K) and this is the Base deployment, so Base network risk sits on top of standard Balancer V3 and Rocket Pool contract risk.
