NICP

Overview

The WaterNeuron NICP pool on the Internet Computer (ICP) is a liquid-staking receipt where participants earn yield from staked NICP tokens. The protocol generates returns by delegating stake to validators and distributing rewards back to liquidity providers.

Total APY stands at 16.57%, with no additional reward component. Over the past week, the rate has decreased slightly by -0.03%, while over the last month it has risen modestly by 0.22%. This current yield is in line with the 30-day mean of 16.5%.

TVL currently sits at $5.8M without a reported change over the past seven days. The primary risk exposure here involves smart-contract vulnerabilities, as this is not a multi-asset or stablecoin pool. Given the protocol category and asset type, liquidity depth in this pool supports robust reward distribution.

Risk profile

• Smart contract risk

  Funds are deposited into a smart contract. A bug or exploit in the contract could lead to total loss. Audits reduce, but do not eliminate, this risk. Check the protocol page for audit history.

• Yield variability

  Current APY is 8.00%; 30-day mean is 9.07%. Yields can change as TVL and incentive emissions change.

• DefiLlama yield prediction

  DefiLlama's model classifies this pool's yield as "Stable/Up" with 74% confidence based on historical patterns.
