# Use cases

**Providing Liquidity**

Instead of [depositing into V3](https://app.uniswap.org/#/add/0xc02aaa39b223fe8d0a0e5c4f27ead9083c756cc2/0xdac17f958d2ee523a2206206994597c13d831ec7/3000), LP can deposit into a [V2-like frontend](https://alpha.charm.fi/vault/0xe72f3e105e475d7db3a003ffa377afae9c2c6c11). **LPs do not have to choose a range, rebalance, or hedge IL risks**, because Alpha Pro can do it on their behalf.

#### **Liquidity Mining**

Instead of using a staking contract to directly incentivise a V3 pool, projects can deploy a [standardised staking contract](https://github.com/Synthetixio/synthetix/blob/develop/contracts/StakingRewards.sol), and invite their LPs to stake their Alpha Pro shares (which are ERC-20) into the contract.

The above is easy for LPs and projects because it is **the same as staking using V2, and avoids unfair distribution of rewards** because all LPs follow the same strategy determined by the projects or their governance.

#### **Achieving Decentralization**

Decentralization is a key priority for many DeFi protocols, and projects using Alpha Pro have more scope to decentralize because:

* Alpha Pro will be **one of the most decentralized products within DeFi**, because all its activities, source codes, and strategies will be available on-chain.
* Alpha Pro’s Strategy Parameters are adjustable on-chain, which means **projects or their governance will have full control over the vault’s strategy**.

With Alpha Pro, **projects can therefore use familiar tools to manage all aspects of their liquidity on Uniswap V3.**
