Is the WETH-CVX yield on convex-finance real?

About 81% of this 16.1% APY is decaying token emissions. The real fee yield is ~3.04%. This pool is short volatility — fees stop covering impermanent loss if WETH-CVX diverges more than ±65%.

REAL 19%
EMISSIONS 81%

Real fee/staking yield: 3.04% · token emissions: 81% of the headline.

👜 Would you be better off just holding?

Break-even fact: a ±65% move in WETH-CVX erases a full year of the fees you actually keep (~3.04%). Whether that move happens is up to the market — but any emissions inflating the headline will fade regardless.
