Is the USDT-WBTC-WETH yield on curve-dex real?

About 89% of this 0.97% APY is decaying token emissions. The real fee yield is ~0.11%. This pool is short volatility — fees stop covering impermanent loss if USDT-WBTC-WETH diverges more than ±9.8%.

REAL 11%
EMISSIONS 89%

Real fee/staking yield: 0.11% · token emissions: 89% of the headline.

👜 Would you be better off just holding?

Break-even fact: a ±9.8% move in USDT-WBTC-WETH erases a full year of the fees you actually keep (~0.11%). Whether that move happens is up to the market — but any emissions inflating the headline will fade regardless.
