Ten pools scored 100/100, yet only one turned over 0.2% of TVL in trades yesterday.
How we’re ranking a slate of 100/100s
Every pool in today’s set shows a 100/100 farmer score. That ties the headline. So we break the tie by what actually pays you: recent trade flow versus capital at work, the posted fee APR, and the pool’s risk number. Said plainly: we favor pools where users actually traded yesterday, where fees aren’t a mirage, and where the risk score isn’t screaming.
We compute daily churn as 24h volume divided by TVL, expressed in basis points (1 bp = 0.01%). More churn means more fee opportunities, all else equal. Concentrated designs (CLMM, DLMM, Whirlpools) can outperform at the same churn if your position sits on the tick. On quiet days they underpay. None of that is theory — it’s right there in the numbers below.
Volume-to-TVL is the LP’s lie detector.

Ranked: pools with real fee flow yesterday
All ten share the same farmer score (100/100). The list below is ordered by yesterday’s realized churn (volume/TVL), then read alongside fee APR and risk.
- ANALOS-SOL (Raydium AMM) — TVL $66K, 24h vol $106, fee APR 0.1%, risk 71/100. Churn: 0.2% (16.1 bps). Highest real flow in this set, though absolute fees on $106 traded are small. The 0.1% fee APR looks modest, but at least it’s tied to trades that happened. Risk sits mid-high for a memecoin pair against SOL; you’re paid, just not much on a quiet day.
- META-META (Orca Whirlpool) — TVL $66K, 24h vol $18, fee APR 0.1%, risk 66/100. Churn: 2.7 bps. A trickle of trades shows up, and the fee tier is live. With correlated single-asset exposure, IL sits inside the pair’s own volatility.
- bSOL-mSOL (Orca Whirlpool) — TVL $57K, 24h vol $15, fee APR 0.0%, risk 86/100. Churn: 2.6 bps. Liquid staking token pair, usually lower IL than degen pairs. But the posted fee APR is 0.0% here, which matches the tiny flow: you parked capital and it mostly sat. The risk score is the highest in today’s group; translation: low fee capture can be a risk on its own when your thesis is “safe carry”.
- SOL-TINY (Raydium CLMM) — TVL $104K, 24h vol $21, fee APR 0.4%, risk 82/100. Churn: 2.0 bps. The 0.4% fee APR reads better than peers, but with $21 traded it won’t move your PnL unless your range sat exactly where orders crossed. High risk score and micro flow — proceed only if you actively manage ranges.
- SOL-SPDR (Orca Whirlpool) — TVL $222K, 24h vol $12, fee APR 0.0%, risk 70/100. Churn: 0.5 bps. Deepest TVL in the cohort, but essentially idle yesterday. If your thesis was “depth attracts flow,” it didn’t on this snapshot. Zero fee APR confirms it.
- SOL-FURM (Raydium AMM) — TVL $147K, 24h vol $6, fee APR 0.1%, risk 61/100. Churn: 0.4 bps. Low risk reading within this set and a non-zero fee tier, but flow was negligible. You weren’t paid yesterday unless you prize protocol points over realized fees.
Key takeaway: only one pool printed 0.2% churn, four sat between 2.0–2.7 bps, and two were effectively flatlines. If you’re optimizing for fees this week, the board is quiet.
High headline APRs that read as traps
Three pools flashed higher fee APRs yet had $0 volume yesterday. That combination is the classic LP trap — the rate exists on paper, not in your wallet.
- SPACEX-SPCXx (Meteora DLMM) — TVL $130K, 24h vol $0, fee APR 3.2%, risk 60/100. DLMM concentrates liquidity into bins that can print impressive fee % when a price path hits them. But on $0 flow the effective take is zero. If you want to farm this, you need confirmed flow at your bins, not a number in the UI.
- STONK-FLYWHEEL (Raydium CLMM) — TVL $124K, 24h vol $0, fee APR 0.2%, risk 82/100. Same story: without trades crossing your ticks, a posted 0.2% won’t accrue. Combine zero flow with an 82/100 risk reading and you’re taking basis and IL risk for no realized fees.
- KUMA-SOL (Raydium AMM) — TVL $133K, 24h vol $0, fee APR 0.1%, risk 68/100. AMMs collect with every swap, but there were none in the last 24h. So the fee APR is theoretical here too.
- BOOP-USDC (Orca Whirlpool) — TVL $189K, 24h vol $0, fee APR 0.0%, risk 39/100. The model flags this as the lowest risk in today’s set, yet there were zero trades and zero fees yesterday. If your goal is fee income, low risk plus zero flow is still a pass.
Opinion, clear and simple: if 24h volume is zero, treat the APR as marketing. Wait for flow or move on. We’ve covered why zero-fee days are an actual signal in quiet markets here: Quiet Week on Solana DeFi: Why Zero-Fee Pools Are a Signal.
Quiet but credible: correlated pairs and LSTs
Two pools deserve nuance despite low prints:
- bSOL-mSOL pairs two LSTs with high price correlation. On days with small price moves, your IL is limited relative to memecoin pairs. That said, yesterday’s fee APR shows 0.0% and churn was 2.6 bps on $57K TVL. If your thesis is “steady carry from correlated assets,” you still need measurable swaps. Otherwise you’re just sitting in LST basis risk without yield.
- SOL-SPDR carries the deepest TVL in the set at $222K but saw just $12 trade (0.5 bps churn) and 0.0% fee APR. Depth alone doesn’t magnetize flow on Solana’s long tail. It can help reduce slip when activity arrives, yet you weren’t paid for providing it yesterday. If you hold this position, widen the range only if you have a forward reason for flow.
Concentrated designs need activity. When the tape is dead, they become expensive parking lots. We’ve discussed when CLMMs shine and when they trap you here: Where Raydium CLMM Actually Pays: SOL-USDC, Plus Two Traps.
What the risk scores are signaling today
Risk readings today span from 39/100 to 86/100:
- Lower risk cohort — BOOP-USDC at 39/100 and SOL-FURM at 61/100 sit on the calmer side of this sample. But BOOP-USDC also posted $0 volume and 0.0% fee APR, which undermines the case for deploying there for fees.
- Higher risk cohort — bSOL-mSOL at 86/100 and the two CLMMs (SOL-TINY at 82/100, STONK-FLYWHEEL at 82/100) carry the top risk readings. In practice, that can reflect concentrated-range management risk, tail volatility, and the probability you sit off-curve when the market finally moves.
- Middle — ANALOS-SOL at 71/100 and SOL-SPDR at 70/100 split the difference and, at least for ANALOS-SOL, paired that with the only meaningful churn number (0.2%).
Don’t overfit the risk label to token brands. The score reflects pool structure and observed behavior as much as “this coin feels safe.” If your plan is to farm fees, risk without flow is just exposure.
Where to hunt next
On a quiet board, your edge comes from being first to spot flow, not from anchoring on posted APRs. Two practical moves:
- Favor pools that show sustained, non-zero churn on consecutive days. Check our live Best Solana pools board and set alerts via AI Signals when volume spikes against stagnant TVL.
- For DLMM and CLMM pairs, position narrowly only when you observe trades at your bins/ticks. The Meteora and Orca docs explain how range placement gates your fee capture.

Pool-by-pool cheat sheet (why each scored as shown)
All farmer scores are 100/100 today. Here’s the plain-English read across TVL depth, fee sustainability, and volume vs. TVL:
- ANALOS-SOL — Low TVL ($66K), the day’s highest churn (0.2%), fee APR 0.1% that aligns with actual trades, risk 71/100. It paid something, not much.
- META-META — Mid TVL ($66K), 2.7 bps churn, fee APR 0.1%. Sustainability hinges on whether this trickle persists; risk 66/100 doesn’t scare you off by itself.
- bSOL-mSOL — Smaller TVL ($57K), 2.6 bps churn, fee APR 0.0%. Correlated pair but fees didn’t show; risk 86/100 says don’t confuse correlation with income.
- SOL-TINY — Larger TVL ($104K), 2.0 bps churn, fee APR 0.4% on paper. Range fit is everything with CLMMs; risk 82/100 reflects that management burden.
- SOL-SPDR — Largest TVL ($222K), 0.5 bps churn, fee APR 0.0%. Depth didn’t translate to flow; risk 70/100 is mid-pack.
- SOL-FURM — Solid TVL ($147K), 0.4 bps churn, fee APR 0.1%. Small but non-zero trades; risk 61/100 is comparatively mild here.
- SPACEX-SPCXx — TVL $130K, 0 bps churn, fee APR 3.2% headline. Without trades, that 3.2% is a mirage; risk 60/100.
- STONK-FLYWHEEL — TVL $124K, 0 bps churn, fee APR 0.2% headline. Zero trades, high risk (82/100). That’s a pass until flow arrives.
- KUMA-SOL — TVL $133K, 0 bps churn, fee APR 0.1% headline. Zero flow; risk 68/100 is moderate but you’re unpaid.
- BOOP-USDC — TVL $189K, 0 bps churn, fee APR 0.0%. Lowest risk reading (39/100) in this set, but also zero trades. Fee farming case is absent.

FAQ
Why are all the farmer scores 100/100 but fees look tiny?
The farmer score ties on headline quality signals, but fee income depends on trades crossing the pool and your range. Yesterday, only five pools had any trades, and just one reached 0.2% churn.
What does 0 volume with a non-zero fee APR mean?
It means the posted APR is theoretical under certain trading conditions. With $0 volume, realized fees are zero. For concentrated pools, you also need trades at your bins or ticks.
Is 0.2% daily churn enough to LP?
Maybe, if it persists. At 0.2% churn and a typical fee take, realized yield can add up if it’s sustained. On a single day with $106 traded, absolute dollars are small. Watch for multi-day confirmation.
Why does a correlated LST pair like bSOL-mSOL still show 0.0% fee APR?
Correlation limits IL, not fees. Fees require swaps. Yesterday’s $15 of volume on $57K TVL (2.6 bps churn) simply didn’t generate meaningful fees.
Should I avoid CLMM and DLMM pools on quiet days?
Often, yes. These designs shine when flow passes your range. On quiet tapes, you take range and basis risk without fee compensation. Wait for volume signals or widen intentionally.
Where can I monitor these pools and set alerts?
