# Welcome

Welcome to the official documentation for **Merge Markets** — the infrastructure for narrative-driven token ecosystems and permissionless liquidity consolidation.

In a world where thousands of tokens launch weekly and most die in silence, Merge creates a new path: **merge or be forgotten**. We enable token projects to combine forces, revive ghost pools, and build stronger, more liquid communities—without needing centralized leadership.

Whether you're a builder, token holder, community lead, or DAO contributor, this documentation will help you:

* Understand the **problem** of fragmentation in DeFi
* Explore how **Merge markets** works
* Learn about the smart contracts powering the solution
* Navigate **incentive design, security**, and more

***

> 💡 **Pro Tip**: This solution is permissionless. Anyone can propose a merge. Anyone can create a market. No gatekeepers.

***

> Announcement: You can now Merge multiple tokens into one.
