Impermanent Loss

Liquidity pools that use the basic XYK formula are the only ones to experience temporary losses. The following formula can be used with the following inputs and outputs:

y = (x * Y) / (x + X) where Price P = X/Y.

The staker invested: X + (Y * P)

Method

In this dashboard I used thorchain.liquidity_actions table and calculated removed liquidity days minus add liquidity days to find the period time spent in the each pool on the all time liquidity. and sum il_protection_usd amount on breakdown period by Daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, half year, yearly & more than year to Show a breakdown of the average IL payout by the amount of time spent in the pool.

About more than 50% of IL payout was paid in yearly and more than yearly liquidation time period that is shown that time spent in pools are more than year for some of pools and stakers.
