TLDR Essential Crypto Lingo: Impermanent Loss. Impermanent loss is the temporary loss of funds while providing liquidity to a liquidity pool. It is the difference between the asset value traders would have if they just held their assets on an exchange or in a wallet, versus the asset’s value after contributing funds to a pool. Even with significant amounts of impermanent loss, it may still be profitable for liquidity providers to retain their assets in the pool because of the earnings generated from these fees.via the TL;DR App
