The Universal Protocol Token is the native cryptocurrency of the Universal Protocol Platform. The ticker UPT denotes the token. According to the whitepaper, the Universal Protocol Platform facilitates the seamless, decentralized exchange of tokenized assets on a single blockchain. The platform is a digital reserve ecosystem that provides value affirmation, investor protection, and interoperability of blockchain-based assets. The platform aims to make cryptocurrencies safer to own and easier to convert across networks.

According to the website, the Universal Protocol Platform addresses one of the challenges of blockchain technology—the lack of a common language. Such a drawback stops the blockchain from transferring value across the decentralized network. The platform believes that transferring digital value across various blockchains should be as easy as navigating across the internet. It aims to facilitate the decentralized conversion of tokenized assets, including commodities, equities, debt, and cryptocurrencies.

The platform has allowed the transfer of value across decentralized networks by providing a common language. This is meant to reduce the time, cost, and risk of converting digital assets. The platform has introduced a universal proxy token, an ERC-20 token standard-based cryptocurrency representing an underlying asset like Polygon on the Ethereum blockchain. Such compatibility is done through smart contracts. Through the Universal Proxy Token, a user can exchange an asset with others without the involvement of a centralized authority.

The Universal Protocol Token is the native cryptocurrency of the platform. The UPT is a utility token based on ERC-20 token standards and works on the Ethereum blockchain. UPT helps in converting any asset into the proxy token on the chain. Users seek to hold UPT tokens to perform Universal Proxy transactions on the blockchain as the fee is payable in UPT only. The token also works as a governance token, and the holders of UPT are provided with voting rights to decide the future of the protocol.

The idea of the platform emerged during the second quarter of 2018, and the platform got set up during the third and fourth quarters of 2018. The UPT ICO was held during the first quarter of 2019. The whitepaper was released in May 2021. Matthew C. Le Merle is the chairman of the platform. The total minted UPT is 10 billion coins.
