Each APT Pair is backed by AX in the LSP Contract. When additional AX is added to the LSP contract, APTs are minted. Similarly, APTs are burned when AX is redeemed from the staking contract. This means APTs are always fully backed 1:1 with AX in the LSP contracts.
There are various incentives designed to encourage AX holders to participate in minting, redeeming, and providing liquidity on the DEX.
