General

UNCX Network (UNCX Network) is a leading decentralised finance (DeFi) protocol that provides liquidity locking and token vesting services across multiple EVM-compatible blockchains.

Founded in 2021, UNCX Network enables token projects and developers to:

  • Lock liquidity pool (LP) tokens to prove long-term commitment to investors
  • Create token vesting schedules for team allocations and investor distributions
  • Build trust and transparency in their DeFi projects
  • Protect liquidity on Uniswap V2, V3, V4, PancakeSwap, and many other DEXes

UNCX Network has secured over $164 million in total value locked and processed more than 74,000 locks, making it the most trusted liquidity locking protocol in DeFi.

UNCX Network supports a wide range of EVM-compatible blockchains, including:

  • Ethereum (ETH) — Uniswap V2, V3, V4
  • BNB Smart Chain (BSC) — PancakeSwap and others
  • Polygon (MATIC/POL) — QuickSwap, Uniswap
  • Base — Uniswap V3
  • Arbitrum, Optimism, Avalanche
  • Solana — via the dedicated Solana app at solana.uncx.network

The team continuously adds support for new networks. Check the official UNCX Network app for the latest list of supported chains and DEXes.

UNCX is the native utility and governance token of the UNCX Network ecosystem. It serves several purposes:

  • Fee Discounts: Holding UNCX tokens can reduce the fees you pay for locking liquidity or vesting tokens.
  • Governance: UNCX holders participate in protocol governance decisions.
  • Staking: Token holders can stake UNCX to earn rewards from protocol fees.
  • Ecosystem Access: UNCX is used across the broader UNCX Network product suite.

UNCX has a limited supply, contributing to its deflationary tokenomics. You can find UNCX on major DEXes including Uniswap.

Liquidity Locking

Liquidity locking with UNCX Network is a straightforward process designed to give investors confidence that a project's liquidity cannot be suddenly removed (a common rug-pull tactic):

  • Step 1 — Add Liquidity: The project adds liquidity to a DEX like Uniswap, receiving LP tokens in return.
  • Step 2 — Connect Wallet: The project owner connects their wallet to the UNCX Network app.
  • Step 3 — Select Lock Parameters: Choose the LP token, lock amount, and duration (e.g., 6 months, 1 year, or permanent).
  • Step 4 — Confirm Transaction: The LP tokens are transferred to the UNCX Network smart contract, which is fully audited and immutable.
  • Step 5 — Visible to All: The lock is publicly visible on the UNCX Network explorer, showing the locked amount and unlock date.

Once locked, nobody — not even the project owner — can withdraw the liquidity before the lock expires. This is enforced by the blockchain itself.

UNCX Network uses a transparent fee structure that depends on the type of lock and the network:

  • Flat Fee: A one-time flat fee in the native token (ETH, BNB, etc.) when creating a lock.
  • Percentage Fee: A small percentage of the LP tokens being locked (typically very low, often around 0.1–1%).
  • UNCX Discount: Holding UNCX tokens can significantly reduce or eliminate certain fees.

Exact fees are displayed in the UNCX Network app before you confirm any transaction, so there are no surprises. All fees collected go back to the UNCX Network protocol treasury and UNCX stakers.

For the most up-to-date fee schedule, always check the official UNCX Network application.

Yes! UNCX Network provides a flexible lock management system through the Manage section of the app. Lock owners can:

  • Extend Duration: Increase the lock expiry date. You can only extend further into the future — you cannot shorten an existing lock duration.
  • Add More Tokens: Increase the amount of LP tokens in an existing lock.
  • Transfer Ownership: Transfer the lock to another wallet address (useful for project transfers).
  • Migrate: Move from older locker versions (V2) to newer ones (V3, V4) with improved features.

All of these management actions are available through the UNCX Network Manage interface and are recorded transparently on-chain.

Yes, UNCX Network fully supports Uniswap V3 and Uniswap V4 concentrated liquidity positions, in addition to traditional V2-style LP token locks.

For Uniswap V3 / V4 NFT positions, UNCX Network locks the NFT position itself, ensuring that:

  • The liquidity range cannot be changed or removed during the lock period
  • Fee collection can still be managed according to lock settings
  • The position is fully visible on the UNCX Network explorer with all lock details

This makes UNCX Network the only locker protocol that comprehensively supports all major Uniswap versions (V2, V3, and V4), keeping it at the cutting edge of DeFi infrastructure.

Token Vesting

Token vesting is the process of releasing tokens gradually over a defined schedule rather than all at once. This is commonly used for:

  • Team and founder token allocations
  • Investor and seed round tokens
  • Advisor and partner token grants
  • Community reward distributions

Why use UNCX Network for vesting?

  • Trustless: The vesting schedule is enforced by smart contracts, not by the team's word.
  • Transparent: Investors can verify all vesting schedules on-chain via the UNCX Network explorer.
  • Flexible: Supports cliff periods, linear vesting, and custom release schedules.
  • Audited: UNCX Network's smart contracts are professionally audited by leading security firms.
  • Multi-chain: Available on Ethereum, BSC, Polygon, Solana, and more.

Creating a vesting schedule on UNCX Network is simple and requires no coding knowledge:

  • 1. Navigate to Lockers → Manage → New Lock in the UNCX Network app and select Token Vesting.
  • 2. Select your token and the amount to vest.
  • 3. Set recipients: Add the wallet addresses that will receive the vested tokens.
  • 4. Define the schedule: Set start date, cliff period (optional), and end date for linear release.
  • 5. Approve and confirm: Approve the token transfer and confirm the vesting contract creation.

Once deployed, each recipient can claim their vested tokens directly from the UNCX Network interface as they become available. The schedule is immutable and fully transparent on-chain.

Security

UNCX Network takes security extremely seriously. Here's why it is considered the safest locker protocol in DeFi:

  • Multiple Audits: All UNCX Network smart contracts have been audited by leading blockchain security firms. Audit reports are publicly available in the documentation.
  • Battle-Tested: Since 2021, UNCX Network has secured over $164 million in TVL without any security incidents related to the core protocol.
  • Immutable Contracts: Core lock logic is non-upgradeable, meaning no one — not even the UNCX Network team — can alter the rules of an existing lock.
  • Open Source: Smart contract code is open source and verifiable on-chain via Etherscan and equivalent block explorers.
  • Trustpilot Reviews: UNCX Network maintains strong community trust evidenced by positive reviews on Trustpilot.

As always in DeFi, you should do your own research (DYOR) and only use official UNCX Network links via uncx-network.net.

UNCX Network liquidity locks are a powerful tool against liquidity rug pulls — a common DeFi scam where developers drain liquidity, crashing the token price to zero.

What UNCX Network locks prevent:

  • Removal of liquidity from a DEX pool during the lock period
  • Early withdrawal of LP tokens by the project team
  • Modification of lock terms after creation

Important limitations to understand:

  • Locks protect liquidity specifically — they do not prevent contract exploits, minting hacks, or other token-level vulnerabilities
  • Only the locked portion of LP tokens is secured — if a project locks only 10% of liquidity, 90% could still be removed
  • Always check the locked percentage displayed in the UNCX Network explorer

A high locked percentage (90%+) on UNCX Network is a strong positive signal for any DeFi project.

Technical

Verifying a lock on UNCX Network is easy and requires no technical knowledge:

  • Search by Token: Go to the UNCX Network Explore page and search for the token or LP pair address.
  • Check Lock Details: View the locked percentage, the amount locked, and the exact unlock date and time.
  • On-chain Verification: Every lock links directly to the on-chain transaction, which you can verify independently on Etherscan or equivalent.
  • Multiple Locks: A project may have multiple lock positions — check the total locked percentage across all positions.

Key things to verify:

  • Is the locked percentage high (ideally 90%+)?
  • Is the lock duration long enough to protect investors?
  • Is the lock owner the expected team wallet?

The UNCX Network explorer makes all this information freely accessible at uncx-network.net.

UNCX Network supports a comprehensive range of DEX protocols across all supported chains:

  • Uniswap V2, V3, V4 — Ethereum, Polygon, Base, Arbitrum
  • PancakeSwap V2, V3 — BNB Smart Chain
  • QuickSwap — Polygon
  • SushiSwap — Multiple chains
  • Camelot — Arbitrum
  • Many other Uniswap V2 forks across supported networks

UNCX Network is constantly expanding its DEX support. The protocol architecture allows for relatively quick integration of new AMMs, ensuring UNCX Network remains the comprehensive solution for DeFi liquidity security.
