Yield farming is a strategic process in the DeFi (Decentralized Finance) ecosystem where crypto holders lock up their assets in a liquidity pool of a specific crypto pair, becoming liquidity providers. This practice, often facilitated by DeFi protocols on platforms like Ethereum, allows users to earn fees from traders who exchange one crypto for another within the pair. These fees, shared among liquidity providers, serve as yield farming rewards, offering a potential source of passive income. However, it's crucial to understand the associated risks, such as impermanent loss. This category provides a comprehensive overview of yield farming and the best platforms for yield farming, equipping users with the knowledge to navigate this innovative aspect of decentralized finance.

Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs) serve as peer-to-peer marketplaces within the world of cryptocurrency, linking buyers and sellers in an environment that is non-custodial and lacks a centralized governing authority. In contrast to Centralized Exchanges (CEXs), the trade process on DEXs is not controlled by a single entity, nor is there an order book maintenance responsibility. What makes DEXs compelling is the combination of the freedom they offer to traders and the enhanced security measures, thanks to the use of smart contracts. DEX aggregators even streamline the process by sourcing liquidity from multiple DEXs for the best trade. In the realm of Decentralized Finance (DeFi), DEXs are a cornerstone, embodying the essence of decentralization. Discover below an array of tokens that are part and parcel of this dynamic category.
