Pools
Leveraged ranges
A leveraged range adds tokens borrowed from Lend to your margin and provides them all as liquidity, so the same margin earns fees on a position several times its size.
Size and debt
debt = margin × (leverage − 1)
For example, 2,000 USDC of margin at 4× provides 8,000 USDC of liquidity and borrows 6,000 USDC of tokens from Lend. SOL/USDC ranges go up to 5× and JitoSOL/SOL ranges up to 8×.
The debt mix sets the exposure
You choose which token the position borrows. The liquidity is the same either way; what changes is how the position’s value moves with the price. Take 1,000 USDC of margin at 4× in a SOL/USDC range centred on the price, holding 2,000 USDC of SOL and 2,000 USDC:
| Borrowed | Debt | Net SOL exposure | Behaves like |
|---|---|---|---|
| USDC only | 3,000 USDC | +2,000 | A range and a long |
| Both, in the range’s ratio | 1,500 USDC of SOL + 1,500 USDC | +500 | A 1,000 USDC range, earning 4× the fees |
| SOL only | 3,000 USDC of SOL | −1,000 | A range and a short |
Margin ratio
A leveraged range is measured by its margin ratio: the part of the position that is yours.
The position value follows the tokens the range holds at the current price, and the debt grows at its reserves’ borrow rates.
| Pool | To open | Maintenance |
|---|---|---|
| SOL/USDC | 20.0% | 10% |
| JitoSOL/SOL | 12.5% | 6% |
At maintenance the position can be liquidated. Adding margin raises the ratio at once.
Net yield
Leverage multiplies the fees and adds the cost of the debt.
For example, liquidity earning a 20% fee APR, borrowed at 6% and run at 3×, nets 20% × 3 − 6% × 2 = 48% on margin.

Set the range and the margin
Margin comes from your account’s deposits, in either of the pool’s tokens.

Open
One transaction borrows from Lend, swaps into the range’s ratio and mints the liquidity.
- 4
Close
The liquidity is removed, the debt repaid, and the remaining tokens return to your account.
