# Autopools tl;dr

## **A New Way to LP**

**The Auto Pools protocol, a novel LP Aggregator, unlocks a new way to LP through automated yield optimization.**\
\
Users deposit assets into an autopool, each representing a set of potential deployment destinations for the autonomous rebalance logic. 

From there, the Autopool Rebalance Logic takes over, autonomously monitoring the underlying pools and leveraging its powerful framework to rebalance – thus abstracting the complexity associated with rebalancing, compounding, and staking of LP tokens away from the user.\
\
The autopool receipt tokens (e.g., autoETH) are yield-bearing and can be seamlessly integrated across DeFi.

### Effortless Access to LP Optimization

The user experience is simple:

1. LP chooses an autopool, deposit any asset via a simple, gas-optimized transaction and gets back the yield-bearing receipt token (e.g. autoETH)
   1. The autopool monitors the underlying destinations and rebalances
   2. Rewards auto-compound back into the autopool
2. LP uses Dashboard to keep track of the autopool's performance and other metrics

Providing liquidity to a set of destinations becomes as simple as swapping tokens or making a simple deposit.
