Juicebox V5 Currency Types

Problem

Juicebox V5 has two different currency systems that are easy to confuse, leading to:

• Inconsistent issuance rates across chains
• Projects vulnerable to stablecoin depegs
• Misconfigured accounting contexts
• Cross-chain ruleset interpretation failures

Context / Trigger Conditions

Apply this knowledge when:

• Setting ruleset.baseCurrency for token issuance
• Configuring JBAccountingContext.currency for terminals
• Working with JBCurrencyAmount in payout limits or allowances
• Building cross-chain projects that need consistent behavior
• Debugging why issuance rates differ between chains
• Seeing different currency values for "the same" token on different chains
