Raydium CLMM vs AMM: Active or Passive LPing?
Raydium offers both concentrated liquidity (CLMM) and standard constant-product AMM pools. The right choice depends on how much you want to manage.
CLMM concentrates your liquidity in a price range. Inside the range, fee earnings are amplified 5-50x. Outside, you stop earning and your position drifts to 100% of one asset. Requires active rebalancing.
AMM spreads liquidity across all prices — lower per-dollar fee yield but zero maintenance, no out-of-range risk, and IL is bounded and well-studied.
Rule of thumb: CLMM for blue-chip pairs you'll actively manage; AMM for long-tail pairs and set-and-forget capital.

Frequently asked questions
How much more does CLMM earn vs AMM?
Tight CLMM ranges can earn 10-30x AMM per dollar deployed — when in-range. Wide CLMM ranges approach AMM yield with extra complexity.
Which has worse impermanent loss?
CLMM is worse per dollar when out-of-range. AMM IL is bounded and predictable. CLMM IL scales with how much price exits your chosen range.
Can I migrate liquidity from AMM to CLMM?
Not directly. You withdraw from one and deposit into the other separately. There's no Raydium 'upgrade' path between the two pool types.
