Providing Liquidity

How do I provide liquidity on Orvex?​

Choose a supported classic or concentrated-liquidity pool, review the pool fee, price range, price impact, and impermanent-loss risk, then approve the verified position manager and deposit both assets. Gauge staking is a separate step for pools with an active gauge.

  1. Choose a supported pool and review its fee tier, price impact, and risk information.
  2. Decide between a classic full-range position and a concentrated-liquidity price range.
  3. Approve the verified position or router contract for the token amounts you intend to deposit.
  4. Deposit both assets and confirm the position transaction.
  5. Stake the position in the matching active gauge to become eligible for oORVX emissions.

Staking is a separate transaction from depositing. An unstaked position earns no emissions. See Staking Liquidity and Claiming Rewards for the full reward flow.

Liquidity options​

On Orvex, liquidity operators provide liquidity to markets and plug into the broader ve(3,3) incentive system. There are two main options:

  • Classic: UniV2-style markets, either variable (volatile) or stable. Simple, two-sided positions where you deposit both assets in the pair.

  • Concentrated Liquidity (CL): Capital-efficient liquidity deployed within defined price ranges. You define your own price ranges and adjust positions directly.

Liquidity provided to markets with active gauges can earn oORVX emissions when staked into gauges.

100% of trading fees flow to veORVX voters. Liquidity Operators earn oORVX emissions through gauge staking, not swap fees directly.

Single-token deposits (Zap)​

Concentrated-liquidity positions normally require both tokens in the ratio the pool expects. Zap removes that requirement: select a single token, choose your price range, and Orvex routes the swap and opens the position in one transaction.

A 0.1% fee applies to run the automation. It is taken from the input token before the position opens and covers the routing cost. No manual token splitting or pre-swapping is needed.
