**Surge Protocol is the first truly decentralized DEX, enabling each token to store its liquidity inside its own smart contract.**

The native token $SRG is the liquidity pair of every token on SurgeSwap ("SRG20 tokens").

With increasing demand for SRG20 tokens, the demand for $SRG increases at the same time.

An increasing price of $SRG automatically increases the prices of all SRG20 tokens.

{% hint style="success" %}
**Nobody can extract the liquidity from the smart contract - No rugpull is possible**

[**Read more about the liquidity here!**](https://docs.surgeprotocol.io/surge-protocol-usdsrg/liquidity)
{% endhint %}

### <mark style="color:yellow;">**Project owners can launch their token on SurgeSwap without any initial liquidity funding**</mark>

* Manually set the starting marketcap of your token
* Pay gas fees to deploy the contract
* Enable trading - Your project is now live!

Surge has a built-in protection against MEV bots. This allows traders to use higher slippage without running the risk of falling victim to MEV-sandwich-attacks.

## Surge Protocol has ZERO trading fees and ZERO taxes!
