5.4 Phase 4: $UPRO Token

Permissionless Liquidity and Growth Tooling

Phase Three introduces Launchpool functionality, enabling projects and liquidity providers to deploy pools directly within the Universe Pro ecosystem.

Core capabilities include:

• One-click pool creation without custody or intermediaries

• Configurable ignition parameters tied to trading volume milestones

• Performance-based token distribution aligned with real liquidity usage

Launchpool extends Universe Pro from a trading platform into a liquidity coordination layer.

Purpose of $UPRO

$UPRO functions as the protocol’s revenue-aligned asset, connecting ecosystem growth directly to token value through transparent, usage-based mechanisms.

As platform activity scales, value is systematically returned to the token through revenue-backed processes rather than inflationary rewards.

Revenue Sources Supporting $UPRO

$UPRO value accrual is supported by multiple operating layers within Universe Pro:

UNAI Engine Layer

• Payment Settlement Leasing Revenue generated from leasing onchain stablecoin liquidity to payment service providers.

• MEV + High-Frequency Arbitrage Execution efficiency and arbitrage capture converted into protocol-level revenue.

• DEX Liquidity Operations Fee income derived from sustained trading volume and liquidity participation.

Service Layer

• Meme Token Trading High-frequency spot trading generating consistent transaction fee flow.

• Perpetual Trading Fee income from perpetual markets with execution quality comparable to centralized venues.

These revenue streams are diversified across trading conditions and are not dependent on a single market environment.

Token Supply and Distribution Philosophy

At the time of writing:

• $UPRO has not been minted or circulated

• There is no pre-mining

• No private allocation

• No early distribution

Token circulation is planned to follow a progressive listing and distribution roadmap across multiple centralized exchanges, prioritizing:

• Controlled liquidity expansion

• Fair price discovery

• Long-term ecosystem stability

Long-Term Direction

Beyond these initial phases, Universe Pro continues to evolve as an onchain execution framework supporting:

• Modular strategy deployment

• Deeper integration between trading, arbitrage, and settlement layers

• Infrastructure-level tooling for capital efficiency and transparency

The roadmap prioritizes durability, verifiability, and system-level alignment over short-term feature expansion.
