# Providing Liquidity

To provide and manage the pool liquidity, follow the steps below.

### Adding liquidity

* Go to Fathom [DApp](https://dapp.fathom.fi/#/swap/pool).
* Connect your Web3 wallet (such as [MetaMask](https://metamask.io/)) and make sure your network is set to the intended chain (i.e., [XDC](https://chainlist.org/chain/50)).

* There are 2 options for the next action:
  * Creation of Pair - If there is no such token pair yet (you can validate it on the [charts page](https://dapp.fathom.fi/#/charts)), you can click on the "**Create a pair**" button and fill in the amounts of the initial liquidity in the pool.
