What is USDU?
USDU is the primary stablecoin on Unit Network, pegged to the US Dollar. It's the quote currency for every DEX pair (TOKEN/USDU).
Why is there a 2% trading fee?
The 2% fee is split four ways to sustain the ecosystem: 0.5% UNIT Treasury, 0.5% Token Treasury, 0.5% Liquidity Pool, 0.5% Vault. This creates a self-reinforcing growth model.
What is slippage?
Slippage is the price difference between expected and actual trade execution. Larger trades relative to pool size cause more slippage due to the AMM formula.
Can I provide liquidity?
Yes! Add equal value of TOKEN + USDU to a pool and earn 0.5% of every trade.

What is impermanent loss?
When prices change after you provide liquidity, your position may be worth less than simply holding. Trading fees accumulated over time can offset this.
