What Is the Risk of “Range-Bound” LPs in a Concentrated Liquidity Model?

A range-bound LP faces the risk that the asset price moves entirely outside their chosen narrow range. When this happens, all of their deposited capital converts into the less valuable asset, and they stop earning trading fees.

This state represents 100% impermanent loss for the capital if the price does not return. The LP must then rebalance or wait for the price to return to resume earning fees.
