I have a question, why is the reserve price on LATOKEN way lower then the liquid bay? I thought the reserve was supposed to be higher?
Hi, It's actually the
opposite of what you supposed.
Once this concept "clicks" - (Reserve can be applied to futures market, etc.) you will see the beauty of BAYS creation as a DEcentralized,
democratically price influenced "Stable Coin" to resist price manipulation over the long haul.
Please see this from

Why do Reserve and voluntarily frozen coins have value? Are there any benefits to holding them?Find the answer here:
https://forum.bitbay.market/t/why-do-reserve-and-voluntarily-frozen-coins-have-value-are-there-any-benefits-to-holding-them/2186Thanks for getting back to me. So basically frozen coins have almost no value and leaves no access to your cash, been over 1 month now frozen yet on your link says 30 days only, they froze 99% of my assets, not liking this system.
You are welcome Lucky.
No. Frozen coins have a
ton of value - especially if you are staking. They earn interest. Like a savings account.
And, just like a savings account, we want you to use it as a savings account; as well as a checking account (MarketPlace)
Hence, savings accounts (frozen coin) make more interest than a regular checking account (liquid coin). The same principle applies here.
Your coins are not actually Frozen, unless you freeze them.
Your coins have been moved to a "reserve" status because the supply% available is limiting your access. It is protecting the price.
The "supply" is being influenced by our democratically voting to do so. The majority is ruling and we have spoken. This is want we want.
BAY is meant to be a store of value (resistant to the manipulators) and stability (when the Marketplace really gets ramped up).
Hence, if you want to "play the market" and sell and buy on the pumps and dumps; then no, BAY is not for you.
This is for investors who crave stability, decentralization, security and this:

Cheers!
