About 53% of this 8.79% APY is decaying token emissions. The real staking / lending yield is ~4.12%. It is single-asset, so there is no impermanent loss to drag you below holding.
Real fee/staking yield: 4.12% · token emissions: 53% of the headline.
No impermanent loss here, so you keep the same price exposure either way. The honest number is the ~4.12% of real yield — the rest is fading emissions, not income.
