# Overview

[Alpha Vaults](https://app.charm.fi/) is the easiest way to provide liquidity. It created the first LP vault, and offers the most secure, and best performing vaults of its kind.

All vaults are created using Alpha Vaults's [open-sourced](https://github.com/charmfinance/alpha-vaults-v2-contracts) codebase. It has a [4+ years](https://dune.com/srpho/Charm-Alpha-Vault-performace-fork?Number+of+days_t2d57c=750\&Number+of+days_nba6d7=750) track record without any security incidence or operating issues, received four [audits](/charm/appendix/audit-reports.md), and has an ongoing [Immunefi bounty](https://immunefi.com/bounty/charm/).

{% hint style="danger" %}
Liquidity Provision can offer high returns but also [high risks](/charm/provide-liquidity/risks-and-mitigants.md), and depositing into an Alpha Vault is no different. The vaults will attempt to mitigate the risks but cannot eliminate it. 

Please deposit in small amounts, regularly monitor your positions, and do your due diligence on the Vault Manager before depositing.
