What is up?
Overview
up operates as a decentralized exchange and liquidity marketplace built on Robinhood Chain. The protocol serves traders and liquidity providers seeking efficient market-making through dual pool architectures. A unified router directs swaps through the execution path offering the best outcomes across both pool types.
How it works
The protocol runs on Robinhood Chain, an Arbitrum Nitro-based Ethereum Layer 2. It implements a ve(3,3) governance model derived from Velodrome v2 and Slipstream designs. Two concurrent pool mechanisms operate in parallel: standard automated market maker pools for volatile and stable pairs, alongside concentrated-liquidity pools that allow capital-efficient positions.
Token and supply
UP is the protocol's ERC-20 token distributed as liquidity-mining incentives. Holders can lock UP tokens for up to four years or permanently to receive veUP, an NFT representing voting power and fee claims. Each seven-day epoch, veUP holders direct token emissions across liquidity gauges and capture 100% of trading fees plus third-party incentives from their chosen pools.
