Understanding xHUM
xHUM conversion
Users can convert HUM to xHUM at a 1:1 ratio on Athena Finance
Users may receive a better than 1:1 ratio when converting on Athena Finance due to our Smart Converter
Conversion on Athena is permanent; however secondary markets exist for xHUM liquidity
Users can then stake that xHUM to earn ~25% of Athena's revenue. Athena further incentivizes xHUM staking by rewarding stakers with ATH, our native protocol token
When a user converts HUM into xHUM on Athena, that HUM is owned by Athena and locked forever on Hummus Exchange
xHUM can be sold for HUM in secondary markets
Athena incentivizes liquidity for xHUM-HUM with the exchange rate determined by the market
xHUM Liquidity Pools
Rather than staking xHUM, users can also choose to provide liquidity for xHUM-HUM
Users can then stake the Liquidity Pool token on Athena to receive rewards of our native token ATH
This is done in order to incentivize sufficient liquidity for users to be able to seamlessly enter and exit the Athena Finance ecosystem
