Aerodrome APRs: TLOS Often Enough — ETH Only If You Use ETH Pools

I think Aerodrome APRs are highly variable and depend on which pool or vault you choose, how long you stay in, and whether rewards are paid in AERO or another token. Reported APRs are often nominal and don’t account for compounding, fees, or impermanent loss — so the real return can be materially lower.

If your goal is to farm TLOS-native pairs (TLOS/stable or TLOS/AERO), you don’t strictly need Ethereum. You only need ETH/wETH if you plan to use pools that include ETH or bridged ETH on Telos. If you’re uncertain, start with single-asset or stablecoin pools and a small allocation to liquidity provision.

I recommend checking current on-chain APR, the reward token, pool TVL, and the contract audit status before committing funds. Treat high APRs as risky, size positions conservatively, and factor in gas/bridge costs and potential impermanent loss.
