# In-Game Currency

The in-game token ( $ UNCH ) serves as the primary currency within **The Unchained** ecosystem. Players use this token to pay entry fees for 1v1 matches, purchase character upgrades, and unlock additional features. The token is essential for progression and is integrated into all key gameplay aspects.
