Understanding Impermanent Loss in Liquidity Pools
Hey everyone, still trying to wrap my head around impermanent loss in DEX liquidity pools. I get the basic concept of price divergence causing a value difference compared to just holding, but when people talk about hedging impermanent loss, what exactly are the practical strategies being used beyond just picking stablecoin pairs? Is there a common approach or tool that helps mitigate it in more volatile pairs like $ETH/$USDC?

That's a great question, it's definitely one of the trickier aspects. Beyond stablecoin pairs, I've seen some folks use options or futures to try and hedge the underlying assets, but it adds another layer of complexity and cost. Curious if anyone has found simpler, more direct strategies that actually work without turning into a full-time job.
