# Earn Revenue in $ETH

### Earning $ETH <a href="#earning-usdeth" id="earning-usdeth"></a>

Users holding BAL-LP tokens from the A51-ETH pool on Balancer earn protocol revenue in $ETH. This ensures a steady income stream while participating in the protocol’s governance.

### How it Works <a href="#how-it-works" id="how-it-works"></a>

When you provide liquidity to the A51-ETH pool on Balancer and receive BAL-LP tokens, you are entitled to a portion of the trading fees generated by the pool. This revenue is paid out in $ETH, offering several benefits:

* Diversified Earnings: By earning $ETH, users gain exposure to one of the most established cryptocurrencies, providing stability to their earnings.
* Increased Participation: Earning $ETH incentivizes users to participate more actively in the protocol, as they can benefit from both the protocol's success and the general market performance of $ETH.
* Sustainable Revenue Stream: As long as the A51-ETH pool remains active and generates trading volume, users can continuously earn $ETH, creating a sustainable revenue stream.

### Additional Benefits <a href="#additional-benefits" id="additional-benefits"></a>

* Protocol Governance: Holding BAL-LP tokens not only entitles users to revenue but also grants them a voice in the protocol's governance. This means they can influence key decisions, such as future updates to the tokenomics system or changes in reward distribution.
* Financial Health: By generating and distributing $ETH, the protocol accumulates a substantial cash reserve. This reserve enhances the protocol's financial health and its ability to weather market fluctuations.
