In a Twitter thread, Bancor stated that LPs will now be able to stake with single-side AMM exposure and security from impermanent loss while also earning fees.

Bancor enables automated decentralized crypto exchanges on premier crypto-blockchain networks, including Ethereum. The network had proposed the move earlier this month, and the voting on the same took place on October 18. By going live on the Ethereum mainnet, Bancor will let users stake their tokens to earn higher ROIs by providing single-sided exposure, IL insurance, and swap fees.

The single-sided exposure and IL insurance will make the AMMs more predictable and less cumbersome for LPs. Therefore, LPs can now lend crypto loan they want and earn from swap fees. The move also reduces the stress of impermanent losses significantly and misleading APYs. With all the changes implemented, Bancor aims to take its DeFi game to the next level.
