are the easiest way to provide liquidity on Uniswap V3. They are the first V3 LP vaults to launch, and also the longest running, most stable, and the highest returning LP vaults of its kind.
Why are Alpha Vaults needed?
Managing liquidity on Uniswap V3 can be tricky. For example if LPs deposit $1000 of ETH and $1000 of USDC and the price moves, their position will no longer be balanced in a 1:1 ratio. They will have to rebalance it - i.e. remove the liquidity, swap one token for another and add the liquidity back.
Alpha Vaults does this all automatically, saving LPs time and gas fees! Moreover, quantitative research is also being conducted to improve the underlying strategy and ensure Alpha Vaults can continue to outperform the benchmark and other vaults.
Key Features
Higher yields using the new concentrated liquidity feature in V3.
Automatically rebalances so that your inventory remains balanced. LPs don’t have to worry about managing their position — they can just leave their deposit in the vault.
Executes rebalance passively using range orders to avoid swap fees and price impact.
Automatically collect trading fees from the Uniswap pool.
Vault shares are represented as ERC-20 tokens so are composable and fungible.
Saves LPs a ton of gas. A tiny amount of gas fees only have to be paid when entering/exiting the vault.
What makes Alpha Vaults different from other liquidity managers?
Alpha Vaults is able to outperform other Uniswap V3 liquidity managers due to its strategy and execution. It rebalances passively to receive (rather than pay) Uniswap's 0.3% swap fee*, avoid price impact, and MEV extraction.
*This fee might sound small, but if it's rebalancing frequently, avoiding this fee can have a huge impact on LP performance.
