* $GLPs function as the counterparty, as it accrues values when traders loses, and devalues when traders win. $GLP accrues 70% of all trading fees, while stakers of the protocol governance token, earn 30%. $GLP is also emerging as a form of collateral, with lending protocols integrating the LP token into their product offerings.
* native token $GMX functions as a governance, utility, and value-accrual token. all collected fees fo to the $GMX fee pool, which issues fee rewards (e.g., ETH/AVAX).
* a floor price fund helps ensure liquidity in the $GLP pool, plus a reliable stream of $ETH rewards fo $GMX stakers.
