Geçici Kayıp (Impermanent Loss): what is it?
AMM likidite havuzlarında fiyat oranlarının değişmesi sonucu tokenleri sadece cüzdanda tutmaya kıyasla yaşanan geçici değer kaybı.
🎯 Key Takeaways & Use Cases
✓Impermanent loss affects LPs when the price ratio of pooled tokens changes.
✓It’s called “impermanent” because losses may reverse if prices return to initial ratios before withdrawal.
✓More volatile token pairs increase the risk of impermanent loss compared to stable pairs.
✓Trading fees may sometimes compensate, but not always fully offset impermanent loss.
💡 Real-World Examples
Providing SOL and USDC to Orca’s AMM and incurring impermanent loss if SOL’s price surges or drops versus USDC.
Pairing two volatile tokens in a Raydium pool and seeing reduced value if their price divergence increases.
Experiencing smaller impermanent loss with stablecoin pairs (e.g., USDC/USDT) than pure crypto pairs.
⚡ Pro Trading Tips

▸Use platforms or calculators to estimate potential impermanent loss before depositing.
