description: "Solana DeFi protocols converge on 15% combined yield for LP incentives"
confidence: experimental
source: "Sanctum CLOUD-003 proposal, 2025-03-05"
created: 2025-03-12

# 15 percent APY is industry standard for incentivized liquidity provision on Solana
The Sanctum proposal asserts that "The industry standard is to offer LPs a 15% combined (fees + incentives combined) annual yield" when designing liquidity incentive programs.
This suggests market convergence on a specific yield target that balances:
1. Attracting sufficient liquidity to meet protocol needs
2. Sustainable token emission rates that don't over-dilute
3. Competitive positioning relative to other yield opportunities
The proposal uses 20% APY for the first month as an above-market rate to bootstrap initial liquidity, then drops to the 15% "standard" for ongoing incentives.
## Evidence
- Sanctum CLOUD-003 explicitly states: "The industry standard is to offer LPs a 15% combined (fees + incentives combined) annual yield"
- Proposal structure: 20% APY month 1, then 15% thereafter
- Target: up to $2.5M TVL with 2.5M CLOUD budget
- Expected duration: "at least 6 months" at $2.5M TVL cap
- Proposal rationale: Kamino team will "guarantee a 15% APY on up to $2.5M TVL, or until 2.5M CLOUD is exhausted"
## Limitations
- No citation provided for what constitutes "industry standard" or sample size of protocols
- Single protocol's assertion, not independently verified across multiple Solana DeFi protocols
- Market conditions (March 2025) may not generalize to other periods or market regimes
- "Combined" yield (fees + incentives) conflates two different mechanisms
- No data on whether 15% is actually achievable or sustainable long-term

description: "Active liquidity provision in INF-SOL generated alpha over passive holding"
confidence: experimental
source: "Sanctum CLOUD-003 proposal citing Kamino vault data, 2025-03-05"
created: 2025-03-12
---
# INF-SOL Kamino vault outperformed INF HODL through high trading volume relative to TVL
The INF-SOL Kamino vault has outperformed a 100% INF HODL strategy, most likely because of very high capital velocity (high trading volume relative to TVL).
This suggests that for assets with sufficient trading activity, providing concentrated liquidity can generate returns that exceed the underlying asset's appreciation through fee capture, even accounting for impermanent loss.
The mechanism appears to be that high volume-to-TVL ratios generate fee income that compensates liquidity providers beyond what they would earn from simply holding the appreciating asset.
## Evidence
- Sanctum proposal states: "The INF-SOL Kamino vault strategy has been a great place to park your INF. In fact, the INF-SOL vault has outperformed a 100% INF HODL strategy"
- Attribution: "most likely because of the very high capital velocity (high trading volume relative to TVL)"
- Source: Kamino INF-SOL vault data (app.kamino.finance/liquidity/Eud3oi6ibDdYyE5UoeaSWH3vttsuSU4ikHc5oY2E9831)
- Proposal notes this outperformance as evidence for why Kamino vaults are the preferred vehicle for LST-SOL liquidity
## Limitations
- Single vault example, not tested across multiple assets or market conditions
- No quantification of outperformance magnitude or time period
- Attribution to capital velocity is speculative (proposal uses "most likely")
- Impermanent loss impact not explicitly addressed
- Historical performance does not guarantee future results

description: "Kamino's automated rebalancing dominates LST-SOL liquidity provision on Solana"

# Kamino vaults capture 95 percent of Solana LST-SOL liquidity because users require automated position management
More than 95% of existing xSOL-SOL liquidity on AMMs comes from Kamino managed vaults, suggesting that users aren't willing to provide liquidity unless their positions are managed by a third-party and automatically rebalanced.
The Sanctum proposal cites Orca jitoSOL-SOL liquidity as evidence, where the overwhelming majority of liquidity is provided through Kamino vaults rather than direct user positions.
This pattern indicates that concentrated liquidity provision requires active management complexity that most users cannot or will not handle manually, creating a structural advantage for vault protocols that abstract away rebalancing decisions.
## Evidence
- Sanctum CLOUD-003 proposal states: "More than 95% of existing xSOL-SOL liquidity on AMMs comes from Kamino managed vaults"
- Orca jitoSOL-SOL pool cited as example showing vault dominance
- INF-SOL Kamino vault outperformed 100% INF HODL strategy, attributed to high capital velocity
- Proposal notes: "users aren't keen to provide liquidity unless their positions are managed by a third-party, and automatically rebalanced"
## Limitations
- Single data point (95% figure) from one proposal, not independently verified
- Sample limited to Solana LST-SOL pairs; may not generalize to other asset classes or chains
- Causation (users require management → vaults dominate) is inferred, not directly measured
