Is the WETH-USDT yield on uniswap-v2 real?

You're being paid 1.87% to absorb price risk. Only ~1.87% of it is real fees — and they stop covering impermanent loss if WETH-USDT diverges more than ±48%.

REAL 100%

Real fee/staking yield: 1.87% · token emissions: 0% of the headline.

👜 Would you be better off just holding?

Break-even fact: a ±48% move in WETH-USDT erases a full year of the fees you actually keep (~1.87%). Whether that move happens is up to the market — but any emissions inflating the headline will fade regardless.
