Liquidity Pooler
Route your LP positions to Bonk's deeper pools and earn 100% of trading fees instead of ~75%.
The Problem
Bonk's standard liquidity pools keep about 25% of trading fees before paying out LPs. For every $100 in fees your position earns, you get ~$75. The rest goes to the protocol.
Most people don't know this. You see "fees earned" on the UI and assume that's the whole picture. It's not.
The Solution
Bonk's pool system has multiple layers. The ones everyone uses (the default UI pools) are the surface layer — easy to access but with that ~25% protocol cut.
Deeper in the system there are pools with better fee structures. These pass 100% of fees to LPs. Liquidity Pooler routes your capital into these deeper pools automatically.
Pool Layers
Bonk has three pool tiers:
- Surface (Layer 0): What everyone uses. ~75% of fees go to LPs. Easy access but you're losing a quarter of your yield.
- Mid (Layer 1): Better fee split (~85-90%), needs larger positions, less accessible.
- Deep (Layer 2): 100% of fees to LPs. Deepest liquidity, tightest spreads. This is where Pooler routes you.
| Layer | Fee to LPs | Protocol takes | Slippage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Surface | ~75% | ~25% | Higher |
| Mid | ~85-90% | ~10-15% | Medium |
| Deep | 100% | 0% | Lowest |
Fee Breakdown
Here's what the difference looks like over time, assuming $100/day in generated fees:
| Period | Fees made | Standard | Pooler | You save |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Day | $100 | $75 | $100 | +$25 |
| Month | $3,000 | $2,250 | $3,000 | +$750 |
| Year | $36,500 | $27,375 | $36,500 | +$9,125 |
How It Works
1. Connect your wallet
Works with Phantom, Solflare, and other Solana wallets. You sign transactions — we never hold your keys.
2. Routing
Pooler looks at available deep pools, checks depth and volume, and places your liquidity where fee capture is 100%. If conditions change, it can adjust your position.
3. Earn
Fees from trades go straight to you. No protocol cut sitting between you and your yield.
| Standard Pool | Liquidity Pooler | |
|---|---|---|
| Fees to LP | ~75% | 100% |
| Custody | Non-custodial | Non-custodial |
| Pool depth | Surface | Deep |
| Slippage | Standard | Lower |
| Management | Manual | Automated routing |
FAQ
Do you hold my funds?
No. Everything stays on-chain in pool contracts. We route where your liquidity goes, we don't custody it.
Why does Bonk only give ~75% on standard pools?
Protocol cut for operations and treasury. It's baked into the standard pool contracts. The deeper tiers just have a different fee structure.
What are the risks?
Same as any LP position — impermanent loss, smart contract risk, market moves. We don't add extra risk on top of what the underlying pools already have.
Can I pull out anytime?
Yes. No lockups. Close your position whenever you want.
What tokens?
BONK pools on Solana right now. More as deep pool layers become available elsewhere.
Glossary
| Term | What it means |
|---|---|
| LP | Liquidity provider — you deposit tokens so people can trade against them |
| Deep liquidity | Pools with more capital in them, meaning less price impact per trade |
| Fee capture | How much of trading fees actually reach you vs. what the protocol keeps |
| Slippage | Price moves against you during a trade — worse in shallow pools |
| Non-custodial | Nobody holds your tokens except the on-chain pool contract |
