Introducing the new YNG/ETH Pool: more liquidity and benefits for traders

Discover the new YNG/ETH pool on Uniswap: more liquidity, better trades, and tax flexibility for traders. One of the pillars of the Young (YNG) economic model

At Young Platform, our mission has always been to build a robust, transparent, and accessible financial ecosystem. Our YNG token is not just a symbol, but a value driver for our community.

Today, we are announcing a significant evolution in this direction: we have created and supplied liquidity to new pools for the YNG/ETH pair on Uniswap. This initiative, which we began outlining in our last quarterly report, represents the completion of a fundamental strategic step for our YNG token, strengthening its presence and liquidity in the decentralized landscape. It is part of our broader commitment to enhancing YNG’s economic mechanism, a sustainable model that links the token’s growth to the platform’s success.

Why open new YNG/ETH pools on Uniswap?

The creation and addition of liquidity on Uniswap for the YNG/ETH pair are not mere technical integrations, but strategic moves that bring concrete benefits to our community and the token itself. Our goal is to strengthen YNG’s position in the decentralized landscape, continuing on a path we have already set. Greater liquidity offers numerous direct benefits for YNG holders and traders:

• Greater on-chain accessibility and flexibility: A DEX like Uniswap is a pillar of the decentralized market. By increasing our presence here, we make YNG more easily tradable and accessible to a global audience.
• Larger trades with lower slippage: With increased liquidity, the market depth for YNG/ETH improves significantly. This means traders can execute larger trades with minimal price impact (reduced slippage), a crucial advantage for both small investors and those looking to trade larger volumes.
• Operational advantages and tax flexibility with crypto-to-crypto trades: For many users, the ability to trade directly crypto-to-crypto (YNG with ETH and vice versa) on a DEX can offer greater flexibility in managing their portfolio. As the first pair that allows YNG to be traded against another cryptocurrency (ETH) and not against stablecoins or fiat currency, it introduces an advantage from a tax management perspective: it allows for investing and divesting in the token (by swapping it with ETH) without necessarily generating a taxable event, unlike exchanging for fiat currency or stablecoins.

The Numbers Behind the Operation

This quarter, we had already taken a fundamental strategic step by starting with an initial contribution of 38 ETH. Today, we have significantly expanded our commitment: for these new liquidity pools, we have invested 92.86 ETH, for a total equivalent value of €300,000, calculated at an average cost basis of €3,230.65 per ETH.

Such a substantial investment demonstrates our deep confidence in YNG’s potential and the value we place on a highly liquid market. As proof of this liquidity share, our wallet now holds the LP (Liquidity Provider) tokens received in return, which grant us the right to a share of the fees generated by each trade. As is typical for liquidity pools, the amount of YNG and ETH locked in these addresses is constantly fluctuating based on trading activity.

The Role of Liquidity in YNG’s Economic Mechanism

Adding liquidity on DEXs is an integral part of our strategy to support the YNG token. It not only improves the trading experience but also plays a fundamental role in strengthening our economic model. As explained in our whitepaper, the YNG economic mechanism, which will become fully operational with the launch of the payment account, includes a “Buyback and Add Liquidity” logic. The fees generated by these new liquidity pools on Uniswap—which are expected to be particularly significant thanks to the large monetary value deposited within them—will directly fuel this economic model. Specifically, they will be used to buy back YNG from the market and will then be re-added to the pools or used for ecosystem growth, constantly increasing liquidity and linking the token’s value to the platform’s growth. The new Uniswap pools will therefore be a fundamental channel for implementing this mechanism, ensuring stability and depth for the token.

This is a concrete step forward for Young Platform and our community. We continue to build, step by step, a financial future where Euro and crypto coexist in a single, efficient, and advantageous ecosystem.
