Liquidity shielding is a mechanism designed to protect liquidity providers in decentralized finance from adverse market movements or impermanent loss. This strategy often involves smart contract features or protocol designs that mitigate the risks associated with providing assets to automated market makers. It can include insurance funds, dynamic fee adjustments, or specialized pool structures that compensate providers during periods of high volatility or significant price divergence. The goal is to ensure the sustainability and attractiveness of supplying liquidity to decentralized exchanges.
Context

Developers are actively experimenting with various methods to offer better protection to liquidity providers, addressing one of the primary risks in AMM participation. Future developments will likely involve more sophisticated risk management tools and capital protection strategies to foster greater participation and stability in DeFi.
