Market Risk and Mitigations

Cryptocurrency Market Volatility

Estimated reading: 3 minutes

The cryptocurrency market is inherently volatile, characterized by rapid and significant price fluctuations. These fluctuations are often driven by factors such as market sentiment, news events, regulatory developments, and technological advancements, which can be unpredictable and difficult to anticipate. This inherent volatility poses a risk to the MEDRE token, as a downturn in the overall cryptocurrency market could negatively impact the token’s value, regardless of the project’s underlying fundamentals or the performance of its real estate assets. It is crucial for investors to understand this risk and consider it in their investment decisions.  

Mitigation

While MEDRE cannot directly control cryptocurrency market volatility, the project will implement the following strategies to mitigate its impact and provide long-term value to investors:  

Preventative Measures

  • Strong Fundamentals: Acquire high-quality, income-generating real estate assets in prime locations with a proven track record of stable or increasing value. This will be achieved through rigorous due diligence and a focus on properties with strong fundamentals, such as high occupancy rates, positive cash flow, and potential for appreciation.  
  • Staking Mechanism: Incentivize long-term holding and reduce selling pressure by offering attractive staking rewards, including a share of the project’s profits and additional incentives such as exclusive access to events and priority access to new property acquisitions.  
  • Token Burning: Implement a token burning mechanism where a portion of the project’s profits are used to buy back and permanently remove MEDRE tokens from circulation, reducing the total supply and potentially increasing the value of the remaining tokens.  

Detective Measures

  • Transparency and Communication: Maintain open and proactive communication with investors, providing regular updates on the project’s progress, financial performance, and any market challenges or opportunities. This will include quarterly financial reports, monthly project updates, and timely announcements of any material developments.  
  • Community Building: Foster a strong and engaged community of investors through active social media presence, regular AMAs (Ask Me Anything) with the project team, and the creation of online forums and chat groups where investors can connect and share information.  

Corrective Measures

  • Adaptability: Continuously monitor market trends and adapt strategies as needed to respond to changing conditions. This may include adjusting the token burning rate, modifying staking rewards, or exploring new investment opportunities in response to market volatility.  
  • Liquidity Reserve: Maintain a liquidity reserve of stablecoins equivalent to 10% of the total value of the underlying real estate assets. This reserve will contribute to token price stability by reducing the impact of volatility in the real estate market and potentially funding token buybacks and/or burns during market downturns. It can also support the project’s operations in case of unforeseen circumstances.
