An Inclusive Store of Value

Atlas Performance

Holding Atlas ACT is advantageous, even for USD holders.

Performance Analysis of ACT reserve assets shows superior wealth preservation characteristics for ACT.

The Atlas Capital Token (ACT) is an inclusive store of value especially relevant for emerging markets in the Global South. Inflation and weakening reserve currencies in many of these markets leave the majority of citizens vulnerable to wealth erosion.

Atlas co-founder and Chief Economist, Dr. Nouriel Roubini, discusses innovative financial solutions complementing the US dollar for enhanced economic stability and resilience.

Eliminating erosion of value, around the world

The ACT is a digital store of value with the capacity to create stability through both price shocks and currency devaluation.

We have selected a subset of countries to serve as illustrative case studies to demonstrate how they would have benefited from holding the Atlas Capital Token in tandem with their local currencies.

ACT was developed to address these loss scenarios:

  • REAL VALUE OF LOCAL CURRENCY (1/3)

    Due to inflation and fiscal policy, these local currencies have seen their value demolished, with Turkish Lira losing over 99.99% of its value.

  • REAL VALUE OF LOCAL CURRENCY WITH INTEREST (2/3)

    Countries with volatile currencies maintain high interest to offset wealth erosion. For those who can, this is a way of protecting their wealth, but is still not very effective in most cases.

  • REAL VALUE OF LOCAL CURRENCY IF HELD IN USD (3/3)

    Holding US Dollars in hopes of protecting wealth does not yield good results.

Here is how ACT could lessen the impact of financial volatility:

  • REAL VALUE OF LOCAL CURRENCY IF CONVERTED INTO ATLAS (1/3)

    ATLAS ACT is designed for stability, excelling in periods of high volatility. In comparison to the previous example of an unhedged Turkish Lira losing 99.99% of its value, a unit of currency would have appreciated up to 7.7x in the same time frame, were it to be held in ACT.

  • REAL VALUE OF LOCAL CURRENCY IF HELD IN 50/50 BASKET OF ATLAS AND LOCAL CURRENCY, WITHOUT EARNING INTEREST (2/3)

    The performance of ATLAS ACT strong even when paired with the currencies it is hedging against.

  • REAL VALUE OF LOCAL CURRENCY IF HELD IN 50/50 BASKET OF ATLAS AND LOCAL CURRENCY, AND EARNING INTEREST (3/3)

    Performance shows an impressive store of value that rivals local institutions.
