### What are liquidity pools?

Liquidity Pools (LP) are decentralized pools of two tokens that allow anyone to use them to swap one token for another. Planet charges 0.25% fees for all swaps. 0.13% of that is earned by liquidity providers & 0.12% goes to the protocol to burn AQUA & buy GAMMA.

Anyone can earn a share of trading fees by depositing a pair of tokens into the LP (this is known as "Adding liquidity"). 

### What types of liquidity pools are on Planet?

1. Planet LP's: These LP's live within Planet's AMM
2. Boosted LP's (Aggregated): These are the best LP opportunities from other protocols aggregated for you. The reward tokens earned here are converted into GAMMA & paid to depositors. In addition to that, you'll earn trade fees and more GAMMA paid to you by the protocol.

### What is "My Pools"?

Once you deposit any assets into pools, they will move up into the my pools column so you can easily track where you have active deposits.
