# Yield Optimizing
### How the Autopool Protocol Optimizes Across Destinations for Better Yield
Each **autopool** has a pre‑selected **set of eligible destinations** (these can be DEXs, lending protocols, and soon yield markets). The rebalance logic scores those options using a blended view of return **and** cost—headline APRs, fees, rewards, available liquidity, and the “hidden” stuff like volatility and potential impermanent loss.
Instead of chasing whatever advertises the highest APY today, the logic aims to **beat any single venue over time** on a risk‑aware basis.
\
\&#xNAN;*The goal is steady, risk‑aware outperformance, not whiplash‑inducing APY chasing.*
**FAQs**
* **How are destinations chosen?** They’re curated for fit (asset type, liquidity depth, integrations, historical behavior) and continuously reviewed.
* **Do you add new destinations?** On occasion, when they meet safety and strategy criteria. Generally only battle tested destinations are chosen.
* **More autopools are continually being added, so check back frequently.**
