Once you are ready with the funds to contribute to the liquidity pool you can add your liquidity to the pool after paying the due BNB. When you are supplying the pool with liquidity you need be clear about the percentage share you are contributing to the liquidity pool. After contributing to liquidity you will receive the “Pool Tokens.”
The Pool tokens track your contribution to the pool and you will earn the fees proportional to the share of the pool. This amount can be redeemed anytime. Users will be able to earn fees proportional to the share of the pool. The ratio of your tokens will change over time as more liquidity pool providers enter and leave the pool.

DEX need to have enough liquidity if they need to function well. Therefore, investors who participate in liquidity pools will benefit as there is forever a need for liquidity at DEX and since DEX is the major app that buys from the liquidity pools it is good to be a part of this market.
Since users don’t trade versus another person, they trade with the smart contract, a type of software program, an AMM is always willing to buy and always willing to sell at a stated price.
