About Uma

"UMA (UMA) is a decentralized financial contracts platform built on Ethereum that enables Universal Market Access. It specializes in ""priceless"" financial contracts, which are DeFi instruments designed to minimize oracle usage, reducing common security and scalability vulnerabilities. UMA's core innovation is its priceless synthetic token framework, allowing ERC20 tokens to track any asset with minimal on-chain price data. The UMA token serves two key functions: governance over supported contract types and system parameters, and dispute resolution through the Data Verification Mechanism, which handles price requests when contract interactions are challenged within the ecosystem."
