# Trading an IFT

IFTs are traded in a decentralized and transparent manner. The protocol leverages a bonding curve for early-stage trading and transitions to a Uniswap v2 AMM pool once the token reaches a predefined threshold. This dual-stage approach ensures fair pricing, accessibility, and scalability.
