InfinityPools Review: Is Its No-Liquidation Leverage Worth It?

InfinityPools is a decentralized exchange on Base focused on leveraged trading. Its central claim is that you can take positions without liquidations: instead of being forcibly closed when the market moves against you, you keep the position open by paying interest. The project also describes liquidity providers earning swap fees, including when pool capital is in range.

That model is different from many leveraged platforms, where a position can be liquidated after crossing a margin threshold. But “no liquidations” does not mean you cannot lose money. A position can become costly to maintain, and a price move can still leave you with substantial losses. The homepage does not spell out the full mechanics, supported assets or how a position is closed, so read the documentation and check the app before committing funds.

There is no project token listed. Treat InfinityPools as a trading protocol, not as a token-investment opportunity.

InfinityPools says open positions incur interest, while liquidity providers can earn swap fees. Those are the main cost and reward mechanisms described, but the project does not publish an interest-rate schedule or a complete trading-fee breakdown in its homepage text. You should not assume that a position is cheap just because there is no liquidation threshold: interest can add up for as long as you keep it open.

If you trade on Base, you will also need to account for network gas when transactions are submitted. The amount can vary with network conditions. Before opening a position, check the current interest rate, any swap or pool fees, and the cost of closing or adjusting the trade in the app. If those figures are not visible or you cannot understand how they accrue, do not proceed until you can.

The project does not list a token, so there is no token fee discount or reward to factor into the cost comparison.

The project advertises no counterparty risk and no liquidations as features of its trading model. Those are claims about how the protocol is designed, not guarantees that your funds are safe. A decentralized exchange can still expose you to smart-contract vulnerabilities, faulty pricing or pool mechanics, and losses from market movements. The homepage does not explain its custody arrangements in enough detail to establish exactly how funds are held during each step.

Two audits are listed for InfinityPools, but the auditor names, audit scope, findings and remediation details are not published in the homepage text. An audit can identify issues at a point in time; it cannot eliminate risk or guarantee future contract behaviour. The project also does not publish a licence or a detailed incident history there.

Before using the protocol, look for the audit reports and contract addresses in its documentation, confirm that they match the app, and understand what permissions your wallet is granting. Do not treat investor names or the no-counterparty-risk claim as substitutes for checking the contracts and risks yourself.

InfinityPools is listed on Base, so you need a wallet that supports that network and enough Base ETH to pay gas. The project’s homepage presents Trade and Earn options, but does not provide a complete supported-wallet list, supported-asset list, mobile compatibility details or transaction-speed figures. Those details matter: confirm the asset and pool you intend to use in the app before approving a transaction.

A cautious first session means connecting a wallet without rushing into a position, inspecting the network and transaction details, and checking what permissions are requested. If the app asks for a token approval, understand its scope and whether it can be limited. Use the official app reached through a trusted channel, and compare its contract addresses with the project documentation.

Start with a small amount only after you understand how interest accrues and how to close a position. Keep records of your entry, fees and exit, and avoid leaving a leveraged position unattended just because the protocol says it cannot be liquidated.

The main appeal is also the main point to scrutinize: avoiding liquidation may give a position more time to recover, but interest payments and market losses still matter. You need to know whether interest changes with pool conditions, how it is charged, what happens if you cannot keep paying it, and whether there are limits on the assets or position sizes available. InfinityPools does not clearly publish those answers on its homepage.

The information gap around rates, fees, custody and audit reports makes it harder to compare the protocol with other ways to get leveraged exposure. Its Base-only listing also rules it out if you need another chain. If you prefer simple spot trading, predictable costs or clear liquidation rules, a conventional exchange or unleveraged DEX may be easier to evaluate.

Use InfinityPools only if you can verify the current terms and understand the contracts and position mechanics. If the app does not show costs and exit conditions clearly, pause rather than relying on the headline claims.
