The biggest market for digital currencies — bigger than all others combined — is long-term store of value.

Which means, if you’re designing a digital currency for broadest adoption, then designing one that is optimized for a long-term store of value is the most important thing you can do.

Existing digital currencies that have no stabilizing features are volatile, which makes them great for day traders but terrible for the average person who is part of a much bigger population looking for a long-term store of value. And stablecoins that are pegged to fiat currencies such as the USD will inevitably lose their value over time due to inflation.

Add to this the rising interest in DeFi and Yield Farming opportunities, and you have more and more people searching not only for a digital currency that is a good long-term store of value but also one that gives them new passive income opportunities. Unfortunately, the current yield farming ecosystem is extremely complex, making it great for day traders but terrible for the average person.

ndau is the world’s first adaptive digital currency specifically designed to address these issues, providing an optimized long-term store of value with staking income opportunities that are easy to use and understand.

ndau is:

  • Based on adaptive monetary policy that encourages buoyancy (freedom to rise in value based on demand while mitigating downside volatility).
  • An easy-to-use system for passive income, enabling average people to earn extra ndau by simply holding ndau in their wallet app.
  • Designed to have an elastic supply that is not vulnerable to sudden changes in demand.
  • Supported by a mechanism for decentralized governance (the BPC).
  • Backed by a real-world Endowment that can enact adaptive monetary policy and stabilize the currency.
  • Built on a custom tailored high-performance blockchain using Tendermint, running live on mainnet since 2019 and scalable for retail transactions with near instant transaction finality.

And in addition to passive income & inflation protection, there are many more use cases where ndau is designed to be an optimal solution:

Digital currencies are fantastic tools for traders, institutions, and the technically inclined who want to build new fintech innovations like CBDCs and dApps. All of these are use cases that ndau supports (see the above infographic).

But digital currencies should be so much more. They should also be tools for the vast population of average people who are simply looking to make their money work for them while seeking a safe haven against inflation (or worse). ndau is built for everyone, but in particular it is built for them.
