# What are Victims?

A summary of what victims are, how they work, and how you and Dracula Protocol can make money by interacting with them.

#### Summary:

Victims are protocols farmed by Dracula users which powers the APY you see in the Dracula Pools.

#### How it works:

On a victim protocol, users deposit **LP tokens** and receive **reward tokens**.

To understand **LP tokens**, let's first understand how to get some. 

First, a user typically deposits two tokens into a liquidity pool on an exchange, like Uniswap, or Sushiswap, which allows other people to make token swaps from one token to another. 

This is known as **'providing liquidity'.**

With that, the balance of both tokens leave their account, and user receives a "proof" that they have deposited the tokens. This "proof" is know as an **LP token**.

The user is now a '**liquidity provider',** which is an important role in the DeFi ecosystem. The **LP tokens** they receive represent their overall share in the **liquidity pool**.

**LP tokens** increase in value over time due to being paid a fee, every time someone swaps the token. This fee is generally set at 0.025-0.03%, but can vary from protocol to protocol.

#### How Dracula and Users interact with Victims:

Users providing liquidity can deposit their **LP tokens** onto victim protocols (Sushiswap, Pickle, Dodo, etc.) to gain rewards. \
\
However, they can deposit the same **LP tokens** to Dracula instead. Dracula will then sell the rewards to buy Ethereum (ETH), and then distribute it to the **liquidity providers**, as well as other parts of Dracula protocol, such as the DRC stakers, DRC-ETH liquidity providers, Gas fund, and Developer fund.
