4.2 - Classic pools
Classic pools use a v2-style constant product curve (x × y = k). Liquidity is spread across the full price range — from zero to infinity — meaning your position is always active regardless of where the price moves.
How Classic pools work
You deposit two tokens in the current pool ratio
Your liquidity covers the entire price range
Your position is always active — no range to manage
You earn NEST emissions proportional to your share of the pool
Why people use Classic pools
Simple setup (Beginners learning to LP)
Low maintenance (no range management)
Good default for most pairs when you don’t want to babysit liquidity ranges
What to watch
Impermanent Loss (IL): your LP token mix shifts as price moves
Crowding/dilution: more LPs joining the pool can reduce your share of emissions lowing APR
Token risk: volatility and depeg risk (if a stable/coin breaks)
Best use case: you want exposure + incentives without managing CLAMM ranges.
