What is $LUA? The backbone of Lumi Finance on @LumiterraGame

Let’s break down how $LUA works,

$LUA is the native store of value in the Lumi Finance ecosystem.

Everything revolves around it:
→ Minting $LUAUSD
→ Staking
→ Earning $LUAB rewards
→ Boosting your power with veLUA

You can’t just get $LUA.

Every $LUA must be minted through the protocol using an official process.

That process uses:

A minting price (not fixed!)

LUAB as part of the equation

There are two prices for $LUA you should know:

✅ Minting Price – Set by the protocol using a bonding curve
✅ Market Price – Set by supply/demand on DEXs like Uniswap

You can spot opportunities when the two prices don’t match 👀

So, why the bonding curve?

It prevents spam minting and rewards early adopters.
The more $LUA is minted, the higher the minting price climbs 📈

It’s a deflationary pressure system that encourages long-term strategy.

 Official LUA Token Address (Arbitrum):

✅ Always verify before interacting on-chain.
