A DeFi Liquidity Pool is a collection of digital assets, typically two different tokens, locked in a smart contract to facilitate decentralized trading. These pools are the backbone of automated market makers (AMMs) on decentralized exchanges, enabling users to swap tokens without needing traditional buyers and sellers. Users who deposit their assets into these pools become liquidity providers, earning a share of the trading fees generated. The size of the pool influences the efficiency and slippage of trades.
