How the two prices work

Market

The market price is the live UCASH/BTC ask on the open market, converted to USD at the current BTC rate. U.CASH treats it as the break-even rate, so anything that settles in UCASH uses market.

Usage

The usage price adds a fixed premium on top of market. It is the rate U.CASH uses to value UCASH internally and to display prices across the network's services, from shop checkouts to AI usage.

The premium

The premium is a fixed number of satoshis per UCASH, not a percentage. The two prices stay a constant distance apart in sats while following the market together.
