FAQ

How is the +4% yield possible and where does it come from?

‍The yield comes directly from tokenized USA T-Bills, in other terms, from US debt. Your funds are invested in a combination of US Dollars held in US Demand Deposit Accounts (i.e. Bank Accounts) and short-term US Treasuries.

The US Treasuries will be in a “cash custody” accounts at Morgan Stanley and StoneX. The US Treasuries will not be rehypothecated.

Funds are hold at third-party qualified custodians, receive daily accounting from NAV Consulting, and will receive annual audits.

Colateral Agent is Ankura Trust Company. As Collateral Agent, Ankura will be prepared to seize the assets that secure the tokenized T-Bills and repay holders if the tokenization company was to cease operations or breach certain covenants of the debt.

These agreements give Ankura the legal right and obligation in its role as Collateral Agent, to take control of assets and repay Tokenholders upon the occurrence of certain events of default and upon acceleration of the loans.

Events that trigger such an action include a failure to repay redemptions, a failure to keep the tokenized T-Bills adequately capitalized, or the tokenization company filing for bankruptcy. Investors in the tokenized T-Bills have what’s known as a “first security interest” in the tokenization company underlying bank deposits and Treasuries, with Ankura Trust acting as the collateral agent the tokenization company is a bankruptcy-remote.

What is the Bitcoin Network

Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency that was created by the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto (who no one knows who he/she is). It is built on a blockchain network, which is a decentralized ledger with the records of all transactions made using Bitcoin.
Transactions made using Bitcoin are recorded in the blockchain. Once a transaction is confirmed and added to the blockchain, it cannot be altered or reversed. This way everyone has a copy of the transaction and no one can mess with it. Since it is decentralized it allows for fast, worldwide and inexpensive transfers of value, as well as a level of privacy and security.

This level of security comes with a trade off, if you send Bitcoin to a wrong address or to an address on another chain (eg. Ethereum chain) the funds will be permanently lost since there is no way to revert the transaction.

When you do a transfer of assets from one wallet to another you need to be sure that you are sending the assets in the same chain. Meaning that if you have a Bitcoin wallet you can only send the assets in the Bitcoin chain and not on the Ethereum network, or BNB chain.

If you are not sure how to process these transactions reach to our customer support: client.journey@lympid.io and we will help you out. It is important to note that any transaction wrongfully made will result in total and permanent loss of the funds and Lympid team cannot revert it.

What is the Ethereum network?

Ethereum (ETH) is a blockchain platform that is used for decentralized applications (dapps) and smart contracts. As with Bitcoin network it operates as a decentralized, public ledger that records all transactions made on the network. Unlike Bitcoin, which was designed primarily as a digital currency, Ethereum was created with the intention of allowing developers to build decentralized applications (dApps) on top of its blockchain. Ethereum has become a popular platform for decentralized finance (DeFi) applications.

When you do a transfer of assets from one wallet to another you need to be sure that you are sending the assets in the same chain. Meaning that if you have a Ethereum wallet you can only send the assets in the Ethereum chain and not on the BNB network, or Bitcoin network.
