How to Stake AETH, WETH in Hydration Dex

Follow these steps to start earning 0.06% APY in the AETH WETH pool. The entire process takes 15–30 minutes for first-time DeFi users.

Step 1: Buy AETH, WETH

Purchase AETH, WETH on Bybit, BINGX, or MEXC. Choose the Polkadot network for withdrawal to avoid bridging fees. Confirm the network before completing the transfer.

Step 2: Set Up a Wallet

Install MetaMask or use a Ledger hardware wallet. Add the Polkadot network if it is not detected automatically. Never store your seed phrase digitally.

Step 3: Get Polkadot for Gas

Buy a small amount of Polkadot's native token to pay transaction fees — usually $1–10 worth is sufficient for several transactions.

Step 4: Connect to Hydration Dex

Visit the official Hydration Dex app. Bookmark the URL directly. Never click links from DMs, social media, or email — phishing sites mimic real protocols exactly.

Step 5: Approve and Deposit

Approve the token spend in your wallet, then confirm the deposit transaction. Yield begins accruing in the next block after confirmation.

Step 6: Track and Harvest

Check your position regularly. Some pools require manual reward claims — harvest and reinvest to compound your 0.06% APY over time.

Gas Costs and Break-Even

On Polkadot, expect to spend approximately $2–$30 in gas for the deposit and withdrawal transactions combined. At 0.06% APY, a $3218695 deposit recovers ~$35 in gas within a week (≈ $5/day in yield). Scale your position accordingly — smaller deposits are better suited to low-fee chains.
