LPX modes

Solo mode means you control the pool. You get its profit. A Solo pool can later become Manager.

Manager mode lets other people join. The manager tunes settings and can earn a fee.

Immutable mode locks the settings forever. Anyone can deposit. Anyone can withdraw.

Solo means you run your own pool.

Manager means others can join your pool. Immutable means the settings cannot be changed.

Fees and receipt tokens

official LPX overview

There is no fee to deposit. There is no fee to withdraw. There is no fee to claim yield.

The protocol charges a fee only on profitable buys or sells. The fee changes by pool type and NTZ.
