Selling $GAUGE

Forward specification

This page describes the intended design, not shipped software. The only behaviour live on-chain today is synthetic position creation. The $GAUGE token, bonds, staking, liquidity pools and mining, trading, liquidation, and oracle mechanics described across these pages are specified but not built or deployed. See Technical overview.

Selling works the same way as buying, a swap against the open-market pool. The protocol does not buy the token from you; the buyback policy operates on the open market like any other participant.

How to sell

  1. Open the Swap page in the GAUGE app and select the $GAUGE pool.
  2. Enter the amount of $GAUGE to sell. The app shows what you receive and the price impact, larger sells relative to pool depth move the price more.
  3. Approve the router for $GAUGE, then confirm the swap and sign.

$GAUGE earned from liquidity mining is claimable and freely tradable. $GAUGE from a bond can only be sold once it has vested and been claimed.
