This guide shows how to mint uAssets on Universal.xyz, then set up new pools and provide liquidity on Sushi v3 on the Katana network.
uAssets are 1:1 backed, wrapped versions of tokens, including non-EVM assets like SUI, DOGE, and SOL, brought on-chain via institutional-grade minting. With over 80 uAssets available, all can be traded on Sushi once pools are live.
This unlocks a new layer of liquidity, enabling EVM users to trade and LP non-EVM assets directly on Katana via Sushi.
Since most pools havenât been created yet, this guide shows you how to mint a uAsset and create a new pool. Once pools exist, you wonât need to repeat this, unless a new uAsset or trending token emerges.
Visit Universal.xyz, make sure your wallet is connected to the Katana network.
If you do not have asset on Katana, you can bridge assets like USDC or ETH using one of the following options:
See the full Katana Tutorial.
On the Trade tab, youâll see featured uAssets like uSUI, uXRP, and uADA.
Click on the asset you want to bring to Katana. In this example, weâll bring uSUI, which you can select directly from the Featured section or by searching in the dropdown menu.
Click Review trade once the app displays a firm quote (in this case, 6 uSUI for 17.63 USDC).
Details like the exchange rate, selected network (Katana), and network cost (free) will appear.
Meanwhile, you can click Add to wallet to make uSUI visible in your wallet.
Once complete, your wallet holds uSUIâa 1:1 backed, on-chain version of SUI, now ready for trading, LPing, or use in any Katana-based DeFi strategy.
Once youâve minted uSUI, you can deploy it into a Sushi v3 liquidity pool to start earning swap fees and potentially protocol rewards. If your token pair doesnât yet exist, you can also create the pool yourself.

Connect your wallet and click âI want to create a position.â
Then, choose âV3 Positionâ from the dropdown.
Select the token pair you want to LP.
In this example, weâll use vbUSDC/uSUI.
If you already hold uSUI but canât find it in the list:
Back to Sushi UI, pick the fee tier that best fits the pairâs volatility:
If the pool you selected doesnât exist yet (e.g. vbUSDC/uSUI
), Sushi v3 will ask you to initialize it. This means you need to manually set a starting price and a liquidity range before you can deposit.
This step is common when working with newly launched uAssets, since pools may not yet exist. If the pool is already set up, you can skip this and follow the standard Katana v3 liquidity guide here:
Add Liquidity on Katana via Sushi v3
a. Get the Start Price
To set the start price, go to Universal.xyz, select the reverse pair (e.g. 1 USDC â uSUI), and note the output.
In our case:
1 USDC â 0.3517 uSUI
Set this as your Start Price in the Sushi UI.
b. Define a Price Range
Once the start price is set, choose a range using presets or manually:
Example of using x/1,2:
This creates a tight range around market price with:
Youâll earn fees only while the price stays within this range.
See the full Katana v3 liquidity guide here to understand more on how to set your price range:
Add Liquidity on Katana via Sushi v3
Note: This step only appears for brand-new pairs. If the pool already exists, you can skip this and go straight to depositing.
Enter how much of each token you want to deposit.
Note: The required ratio is based on your price range, not necessarily 50/50.
Note:
A pool needs at least $1,000 of each token to be priced properly.
For demo purposes, weâve only added a small amount to showcase the flow.
Click Approve for each token.
Your wallet will prompt you to grant permission for Sushi to use the assets.
Click Preview, review your position summary (price range, slippage, token amounts), and click Add Liquidity.
Confirm the transaction in your wallet.
Youâll see a message confirming your LP position was created.
You can click âView on Explorerâ to verify the transaction onchain.
Return to the Pool page and go to the âMy Positionsâ tab.
Here, you can monitor your position, check unclaimed fees, rebalance your range, or withdraw liquidity.
Since the new uAsset pool i.e. uSUI has been set up, you and others ready to trade as usual. Thank you for setting the pool up!
