No, it isn't. In general, it is essential to comprehend that liquidity providers are the counterparts of traders on Deri Protocol. When traders realize profits, they do so at the expense of liquidity provider's provided liquidity. When traders realize losses or are liquidated, liquidity providers realize profits at the expense of traders.
Since it is very rare that all traders' positions are covered by an equal number of long and short contracts, liquidity providers step in to cover the difference between long and short positions (net position) with their liquidity. Therefore Liquidity mining on Deri Pools is subject to market risk
However, please note that such market risk is different from the impermanent loss of spot exchanges (e.g. Uniswap or Sushiswap). First of all, the fact it is called "risk", instead of "loss", indicates that the LSV/mining PnL result could be negative but also positive (which depends on several factors such as funding & transaction fees, exceeding traders' profits & realizing them, etc.). Secondly, the probability of a negative result (a loss) on Deri liquidity mining pools is much smaller than that of typical spot exchanges due to the protection by arbitrageurs, although a certain market risk remains.
You might think of liquidity mining on Deri as investing in a low-risk fund with potentially very high profit, whereas that risk-free liquidity mining is like depositing your money into a bank saving account.
