What is Concentrated Liquidity?

The Butter Analogy

Imagine you have one stick of butter and a long piece of toast.

If you spread the butter across the entire toast, you get a thin layer everywhere. Not very buttery.

Now imagine you only butter the middle third. Same amount of butter, but much thicker. That section is really buttery.

Concentrated liquidity works the same way. Instead of spreading your funds across every possible price, you focus them on a specific range. Same capital, more earning power.

Old Way vs New Way

Old way (full range): Your $1,000 covers prices from $0 to infinity. Only a tiny fraction sits near the current price. Thin butter.

New way (concentrated): Your $1,000 covers prices from $2,400 to $2,600. All of it sits near the current price. Thick butter.

The concentrated position can earn 10x to 100x more fees than the full-range position. Same deposit. Way more earnings.

The Tradeoff

Concentrated liquidity only earns when the price is inside your range. If the price moves outside, your position stops earning.

That is where rebalancing comes in. When the price moves out, you need to adjust your range.

MaxFi does this automatically. When the price moves out, MaxFi places a new range one tick spacing away from the current price and deposits your tokens single-sided. No swap needed. This costs you nothing in slippage or swap fees, and it dramatically reduces impermanent loss.

Why This Matters for You

You get the benefits of concentrated liquidity (higher earnings) without the work of managing it yourself.

MaxFi watches the price 24/7. It rebalances when needed. You just collect fees.

What You Learned

• Concentrated liquidity focuses your funds on a price range for higher earnings
• Tighter ranges earn more per trade but need rebalancing more often
• MaxFi manages your range automatically with IL-reducing technology
