Explore
Explore is the catalogue of everything issued on UNIT — 376 tokens across six families — and the way in to any one of them.
Chapter Overview
If the Wallet answers what do I hold?, Explore answers what is there, and what can I do with it? It has two parts: a ranked listing of every token, and the token pages you reach from it.
The listing is the same for everything. The token pages are not. UNIT has four kinds of token and each page offers different things, because each kind is a different thing — a wrapped asset can be bought and swapped, a creator token with no pool yet cannot.
The token families
| Family | Count | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Native | 1 | $UNITCOIN |
| Wrapped | 17 | $BTCU · $ETHU · $SOLU |
| Stablecoin | 21 | $USDU · $EURU · $GBPU |
| Creator | 280 | $WORKCOIN and the rest |
| City | 24 | $BERLIN · $CAIRO · $ACCRA |
| Vertical | 31 | $ART · $BIKE · $BEAUTY |
City and Vertical tokens are creator tokens grouped around a place or a subject.
Three ways to obtain an asset
- Buy
- Pay with a card — Buy, in the Wallet.
- Swap
- Trade an asset you hold for another, on the token's own page.
- Acquire
- Create a stablecoin by committing collateral — Acquire.

Common Workflows
Find out what exists
Open Explore Markets, filter to the family you care about, and sort by market cap, 24-hour change or volume.
Research a token before acquiring it
Open the token from the listing. Check its type, read its supply — how much exists, and how much sits in its token bank and treasury — and open Holders to see how concentrated it is. See The Token Page.
Obtain an asset
For a wrapped asset, use Buy or Swap from its page. For a stablecoin, use Acquire. For a creator token, check it has a market first.
