# What is gUSHer?

> GUSH your USH. unshETH your ETH.

**gUSHer** is THE best way to manage your `USH` and unshETH experience. It is platform custom-built with the purpose of boosting and optimizing rewards for `USH` stakers *and* liquidity providers in the [unshETH protocol](/gusherdao/general-information/unsheth.md), while still holding tokenized `vdUSH`. TLDR:

* Maximum yield (with added **boost**)
* Liquid tokenized `vdUSH`
* Control `USH` voting rights via delegation

**gUSHer's core goal is to grow and improve the unshETH ecosystem through increased adoption and efficiency. This principle will guide the design and decisions of the team.**

## Why do we need a new layer?

One of unshETH's founding principles is "Decentralization through incentivization." Gusher combines incentive maximization with ease of use for users.

Actively managing a position can be tedious: staking, claiming, re-staking, providing liquidity, and others is expensive and time-consuming. Gusher batches and automates these processes in an optimal way, maximizing yield, all while receiving \[Gusher exclusive] *boosted* yield (paid in tokenized `vdUSH` and `GUSH`).

Gusher charges no fees for deposits/withdrawals, only a low [protocol fee](/gusherdao/protocol-details/protocol-fees.md) on profits, which is distributed to `USH` stakers and `GUSH` holders.
