EMP Token
Laying the foundation with new technology
Demand and Supply Dynamics
The video below illustrates the supply and demand dynamics for the EMP token. When we raise funds to enable the delivery of affordable housing, an agreed amount of EMP tokens is required as collateral for the loan. This collateral, provided in addition to the underlying property, ensures the loan is over-collateralized, reducing risk for the investor and lowering the required rate of return.
The EMP tokens are either purchased by the developer on the open market or borrowed from the community. Community members who stake their EMP tokens with the developer receive a collateral NFT as proof of staking. This NFT can be traded on the open market if the original EMP staker wishes to exit their position before the agreed unstaking period. Those who support the developer by staking their EMP tokens earn a reward at the end of the lock-up period.
The EMP tokens raised are then locked away for the agreed term, removing them from the circulating supply. As more projects come online, demand for the token will increase, while circulating supply will decrease.
EMP Collateral Calculator
Use this calculator to determine the amount of EMP locked per additional affordable house provided
This calculator is for indicative purposes only. The percentage of funding required to be collateralized is determined on a deal-by-deal basis. This calculator uses the predicted rate for initial projects, assuming an EMP value of $0.10. With more projects we expect the percentage of collateralization required to decrease and the EMP price to increase.

Buy EMP nowTokenomics
Empowa Tokenomics have been designed after an extensive consultation period with both the community and tokenomics advisers. Aligned with our core values, we believe it provides a fair and equitable token distribution model, with release schedules to help protect token holders.
The document describes the token distribution, token sale amounts, individual purchase limits and priority access eligibility.

Empowa $handles
To promote transparency of our tokenomics, we have created a unique ADA handle for each EMP token allocation category.
You can view them on a Cardano Explorer using the below handles:
Housing Project = $empowa.housing
Public Sale = $empowa.public
Innovation Fund = $empowa.innovate
Team = $empowa.team
Operating Fund = $empowa.operate
Private Sale = $empowa.private
ISPO = $empowa.ispo
Purchase $EMP Tokens
The EMP token is a platform-native token introduced by the Empowa Platform used to collateralize investments in affordable housing. Capital raised is secured by cash flows associated with lease-to-own tenants’ repayments, and an amount of the EMP token supplied by developers as collateral.
You can purchase some EMP tokens using MuesliSwap DEX on this page. Otherwise you can also find EMP tokens on the below decentralised exchanges:
