Cetoswap liquidity

Updated -

Liquidity provider (LP) tokens record a provider’s position in CetoSwap liquidity pools on Manta. The pools hold paired assets for swaps, while the receipt represents the deposited liquidity for withdrawal.

Network
Manta.
Liquidity pairs
Two cryptoassets per trading pair in CetoSwap’s liquidity-providing model.
Provider compensation
A share of exchange fees from trades that use pooled liquidity.

What does an LP token represent?

The LP token is the accounting receipt; the underlying assets sit in the liquidity pool’s smart contract. Its balance counts receipt units, which are different from units of either deposited asset.

CETO is the ecosystem’s emissions token, while a CETO/ETH LP token represents the paired liquidity position. CetoSwap’s farming explanation describes receipt tokens as supporting withdrawals and the collection of outstanding rewards.

Which receipt belongs to each pool?

LP contracts listed in Ecosystem Tokens
Liquidity pair LP contract Position represented
CETO/USDEX+ 0xef799451a28a1432712d19df82e512d985d685d4 Paired CETO and USDEX+ liquidity, separate from holding either token alone.
CETO/ETH 0x6c72baee6d7074e54add3f617ec5d6b22afe779b Paired CETO and ETH liquidity, with a different receipt from the CETO/USDEX+ pool.
USDEX+/USDC 0x3838753b9b9b7cf26ddc71d0f1a0ee0b9144aba5 Paired USDEX+ and USDC liquidity; this position does not contain CETO.
Pool identification depends on both the Manta network and the listed LP contract.

STGAI/MANTA and ETH/MANTA also appear among CetoSwap’s documented liquidity pairs.

How do trading fees differ from farming rewards?

Trading fees arise from swaps that use pooled liquidity, and liquidity providers receive a percentage of those fees. Yield farming involves depositing or staking cryptoassets for rewards that a smart contract tracks.
