● REAL Grade A

Is the USDT yield on compound-v3 real?

This 3.14% is mostly real staking / lending yield (~3.04% of it). Only about 3% comes from token emissions. It is single-asset, so there is no impermanent loss to drag you below holding. It can still fall, but it isn't a disappearing subsidy.

REAL 97%

Real fee/staking yield: 3.04% · token emissions: 3% of the headline.

👜 Would you be better off just holding?

No impermanent loss here — the ~3.04% is real income on the very asset you'd be holding anyway. Only any emissions portion fades.
