It's all relative.
I've seen far too many coins come out, issue hundreds of millions of tokens and have those tokens to head straight for 1 satoshi or less because the market is just completely flooded and each individual holder has hundreds of thousands of tokens each on average.
We wanted Touriva to be scarce and difficult to obtain through any means other than sharing accomodation services through the app, and a low coincap makes it easy for myself and other supporters of the project to maintain a value above zero. Actually at time of writing the mast majority of Touriva on the market are above or well above $1, with significantly less than $1000 worth available below that threshold.
Another aspect is that the smaller the coin cap, the more volatile the pricing. This is a key part of the business plan for Touriva because ultimately the plan calls for selling tokens to tourists who will not care one dot about the actual spot price as they are likely by design to be completely unaware that the project uses crypto under the hood. This is achieved through the app and marketing; the plan is to market the vacation options in a similar way to a traditional vacations company. For instance :
https://www.holiday-factory.com/ which is based here in the UAE. A typical tourist will find the app from our marketing, look at the prices in dollars ( or AED ) and if they make a booking the system will internally convert their payment to Touriva tokens, depending on the location providers settings;
1) Instant cash-out : any tokens the location provider earns will be sold for $$$ immediately for the best available price.
2) Balanced cash-out : their tokens will placed on sale for an amount which is equal to their listing price and they wait until the system completes their order.
3) Investment mode : their tokens can either be withdrawn for them to hold personally or placed on sale at a price they specify. Again they will need to wait until the price reaches their goal before they get their $$$.
The more tourists we accomodate, the more throughput the system will have in delivering rewards to anyone who is holding coins or collaborating as a miner or location operator. With a very low cap, the price will be able to spike skywards very fast with only a small number of tourists using it. Some people will use such spikes as an opportunity to dump and be gone and that's fine it's inevitable and if this works it will be their loss! Others will be able to use the spikes to expand their location offerings by saving up coins whilst the price is low and then selling when it gets high in order to fund opening new, bigger and better locations.
Again the key to it all is getting actual tourists in beds. It's the beating heart of the plan, and I would consider this a rip-roaring success if it reaches a point where we have say 100 tourists sleeping in various locations on an average night paying say $50 / night each, giving a daily turn over of $5000 annual of $1,825,000
We don't need to be the size of AirBnB for this to work, even matching the output of a small classic tourism agency company will result in a working throughput which will drive profits for all involved. It would be nice to reach the stated endgame of having Touriva branded luxury resorts around the world, but realistically if that happens it won't be for at least 15 to 20 years from now unless this really takes off in a huge way in the coming few years.
