Providing Liquidity on Osmosis

Introduction​

Osmosis is a decentralized liquidity protocol that allows users to provide liquidity to pools of tokens and earn from fees in return. This guide will walk you through the process of providing liquidity to the ACRE/OSMO pool on Osmosis. By proving liquidity for the ACRE/OSMO pair you will recieve liquidity "shares" which you can then bond to earn liquidity mining rewards.

Requirements​

You should have ACRE tokens and OSMO tokens of roughly equal value in your Keplr wallet to provide liquidity to the ACRE/OSMO pool.

If you do not have any ACRE tokens you can follow this guide to Connect Keplr to Acrechain and then use this guide to purchase ACRE through Omosis.

If you do not have any OSMO tokens, you can follow this guide to Connect Keplr to Osmosis and then purchse OSMO tokens through the Osmosis Swap.

How to Provide Liquidity​

  2. Enter the amount of ACRE and OSMO tokens you want to provide to the pool.
