Is the CRVUSD-WETH-CRV yield on curve-dex real?

You're being paid 8.50% to absorb price risk. Only ~4.46% of it is real fees (the other ~48% is decaying emissions) — and they stop covering impermanent loss if CRVUSD-WETH-CRV diverges more than ±84%.

REAL 52%
EMISSIONS 48%

Real fee/staking yield: 4.46% · token emissions: 48% of the headline.

👜 Would you be better off just holding?

Break-even fact: a ±84% move in CRVUSD-WETH-CRV erases a full year of the fees you actually keep (~4.46%). Whether that move happens is up to the market — but any emissions inflating the headline will fade regardless.
