# Depositing into a Base Pool

Ellipsis has two base pools, the `3EPS` pool consisting of `BUSD`, `USDC` and `BUST-T` (USDT), and the `btcEPS` pool, consisting of `renBTC` and `wBTC`.

## Depositing into a base pool

Stake any combination of the three coins in the Ellipsis 3pool: BUSD, USDC or USDT.  Enter the number of coins you wish to deposit and click "Add Liquidity". You may have to approve Ellipsis to use your tokens before you can add liquidity.

After depositing in the pool, you receive liquidity provider (LP) tokens. They represent your share of ownership in the pool and these can be staked for EPS.

Depositing the coin with the smallest share will result in a small bonus.

Once you deposit one stable coin, it gets split over the three different coins in the pool which means you now have exposure to all of them.
