Is Ampleforth a good investment?

Below are the aspects you should consider before investing in AMPL:
  • Interesting monetary proposition: The token dynamics employed by Ampleforth are unique. The protocol seeks to combine the scarcity aspect of Bitcoin while allowing it to enjoy the elasticity (i.e. inflationary) benefits presented by fiat currency.
  • Financial incentives: The platform provides network participants with lucrative incentives for helping the network reach a state of economic equilibrium. Alternatively, one could also say that the network hinges on the activities of profit-seeking traders to restore equilibrium on the demand side once supply ratios are altered.
  • Unique design: After the gold standard was abolished in the 1940s, fiat currencies did not have their values pegged to any physical commodity, essentially allowing governments all over the world to inflate their money supply streams as they see fit, instead of expanding and contracting the total output as per market demand.
  • Ampleforth borrows from the concept of a flexible monetary supply, combining it with the deflationary model used by many cryptocurrencies today (a la Bitcoin), effectively eliminating any sort of centralized control over its total token pool.
  • Experimental: Though quite exciting, Ampleforth is still quite experimental in its design since it makes use of an operational structure that has not been tested under rigorous market conditions. This is best highlighted by the fact that since its inception, the currency’s total market capitalization has never crossed the $10 million threshold.
