Downstream → Upstream
5% of every fee → $LIQ.
LiquidPad consumes Liquid Protocol's primitives. In return, 5% of every trading fee on every shipped token routes to a $LIQ buyback on market — contract-enforced, no team intervention, every cycle a tx hash. This is the public ledger.

How the flywheel works
Trades happen on any LiquidPad-deployed token. Uniswap V4 pool collects 1% trading fees.
Liquid Protocol's FeeLocker splits accrued fees per the configured recipients: 80% deployer, 15% LPAD buyback & burn, 5% LIQ buyback.
The 5% slice swaps to $LIQ on Liquid Protocol's own market — adds buy pressure to the upstream token that powers the rail.
Every cycle is recorded to the public buyback ledger and surfaced via /api/burn. No admin can fake or skip a cycle.

And the LPAD side
For symmetry: the same fee stream sends 15% to a $LPAD buyback & burn (sent to 0x…dEaD). Cumulative burned: 41.61M LPAD across 8 cycles.
Both sides of the split are public, both verifiable. The downstream/upstream relationship is bilateral: LiquidPad burns supply, $LIQ catches buy pressure. Different mechanics, same accountability.
Open infra wins. Always.
