How Does The Impermanent Loss Protection Work?
THORChain offers impermanent loss protection of 1% a day, which means after 100 days you are entitled to 100% reimbursement of your impermanent loss. This means after 100d you will minimum get out what you put in (not in dollar terms but crypto asset you provided).
- 1.You provide 1000 BUSD asymmetrical to the BUSD pool.
- 2.At time of writing this converts automatically to 500 BUSD ($500), and 125 Rune ($500), totalling $1000.
- 3.Rune is fluctuating and redeemable amount is let's say 300 BUSD ($300) and 200 Rune ($450).
- 4.You have an impermanent loss. 5) this loss gets covered 1% per day i.e. after 100% you get reimbursed minimum 500 BUSD and 125 Rune.
Please note that the IL is not calculated based on dollar terms but digital asset terms.
