# Liquidity Maintenance

**The healthy balance between market capitalization and liquidity is critical to the sustainability of a token contract aswell as its economics of . This function help protect against negative price volatility of the $BLOCK token.**

Liquidity is what allows anybody to buy & sell their $BLOCK on the pair $FIVA/ETH anytime, however the less liquid a pool is, the lower the price you get. ALS ensures a steady flow of liquidity, ensuring that $BLOCK token holders are able to easily exchange their tokens anytime with little to no market slippage.

**Here is how the  works:**\
\
On each buy or sell order there is a **1% tax fee** that automatically gets stored into the LM wallet. Every 48 hours at 22:52:48 UTC (This is based on per-block timing, calibrated to BNB Chain specifics) will inject automatic liquidity into the market. it's embedded into $BLOCK smart contract and injects 100% of the added tax into the liquidity pool after conversion to ETH. The mechanics of the algorithm create a positive feedback loop in which the ratio of $BLOCK/$ETH, increasing it in the process. This will maintain a healthy liquidity/MktCap ratio between 20 - 25% .
