# Protocol Owned Liquidity

When you make a trade on the SolidLizard DEX, you will pay a between 0.02% (stable pairs) and 0.4% fee (volatile pairs). 

50% of the fees are returned to the `veSLIZ` holders every week. while the other 50% goes to the treasury. Most of the fees accumulated by the treasury will be used to buy back SLIZ tokens and build a deep liquidity on the SLIZ-ETH pool over time. \
\
SolidLizard is one of the is the first exchanges to introduce POL to its system. By using a significant portion of the fees to buy back `SLIZ` and create liquidity pools, the platform can maintain deflationary pressure on `SLIZ`, leading to an increase in its price over time. Additionally, it will ensures that  there will always be enough liquidity for `SLIZ`, even during bear markets.
