# Pool

## Overview

A pool is a regular Stargate liquidity pool where e.g. USDC will be deposited. Stargate V2 features two types of pools: `poolNative` and `pool`. The `poolNative` refers to pools consisting of native tokens, such as an ETH pool on Ethereum, while `pool` encompasses all other types of pools.
