No, that’s wrong 😑 I’m Beyond, and I want to share some great ideas about where you can invest $NTRN, as the economy of ✴️ **@Neutron_org** (https://x.com/Neutron_org) is growing. These tips are based on a thread by **@fluffy_trex** (https://x.com/fluffy_trex), and I’m very grateful to him for the valuable insights. **Note:** This article is for those who want to hold $NTRN and earn from it. ### What Is Neutron? ✴️ **@Neutron_org** (https://x.com/Neutron_org) is an ICS (Interchain Security) chain in the Atom Economic Zone (AEZ), secured by validators from **@cosmos** (https://x.com/cosmoshub). In return for security, Neutron pays a portion of its revenue to the hub, so there’s no inflation—and no traditional staking APR here. Want to learn more?

Here Are @fluffy_trex’s Ideas: #### 1. The $ETH Pair: 🏹 If you like $ETH, there’s a liquidity pool with $NTRN that’s been consistently delivering over 70% APR for a long time. You receive $AXL and $NTRN, and the rewards are automatically reinvested. **Note:** You’ll need to wait 7 days to withdraw your funds. #### 2. The Stable Pair: 🚜🌾 If you prefer stability, try the $NTRN - $USDC pair. Rewards are paid in $NTRN and $ASTRO, and it’s hosted by **@astroport_fi** (https://x.com/astroport_fi). **Note:** If $NTRN’s price surges, you might lose a bit due to impermanent loss. #### 3. The Risky Approach: 🏋️‍♂️ Want to earn more? Use the previous strategy via **@mars_protocol** (https://x.com/mars_protocol), but borrow $USDC to add to the pool. The pool rewards exceed the borrowing fee, so you come out ahead. **Note:** Spots are limited right now—keep an eye out for opportunities to join. #### 4. The Droplet Program: 💧 On **@dropdotmoney** (https://x.com/dropdotmoney), there’s a Droplet program. Add $NTRN to a pool with $DATOM on **@astroport_fi** (https://x.com/astroport_fi), and you’ll get bonuses—50 times the value of your deposit daily in "droplets." You can even access this pool directly through **@mars_protocol** (https://x.com/mars_protocol) and borrow up to 50% of your tokens. #### 5. The Simple Way: 😇 Lend your $NTRN on **@mars_protocol** (https://x.com/mars_protocol) 🔴 and earn 1.6% APR (the rate can vary). Someone borrows your tokens and pays you for it. You can also borrow up to 55% against your $NTRN. There’s no risk of losses due to price changes here. #### 6. Influencing the Project: 🗳️ Want to help shape the future of ✴️ **@Neutron_org** (https://x.com/Neutron_org)? Deposit your $NTRN in the voting pool on **@DA0_DA0** (https://x.com/DA0_DA0). There’s no APR (0%), but you get to vote on the direction of the project. --- ### A Final Note This isn’t financial advice—it’s just ideas from **@fluffy_trex** (https://x.com/fluffy_trex) that I’ve adapted.
