TOKEN REDENOMINATION.

Token Redenomination is the process whereby the token of a blockchain project is recalibrated ( that is, changes are made) to produce a new token to replace the old one due to the fact that it might have been devalued or the value was too high such that the low-capital investors could not afford it. When token redenomination occurs, a new value is established for the new token, the token will also be given a new logo and the name of the token will even be changed.

WHAT DISTINGUISHES TOKEN REDENOMINATION FROM CURRENCY OR OTHER ASSET REDENOMINATION?

What distinguishes token redenomination from currency or other asset redenomination is the fact that old notes are always exchanged for the new currencies when it has to do with the fiat currencies. But for tokens, everything is done digitally.
For instance, if redenomination is done to a physical asset or a fiat currency, the holders of those assets or currencies will take it to the bank or relevant agencies to exchange it for the new ones at a fixed rate. But for a token, it is done through an exchange.

ADVANTAGES OF TOKEN REDENOMINATION.

• It gives opportunity to small investors: In a token that experienced hyperinflation before it was redenominated, a lot of small investors will now be able to invest in such cryptocurrency project because the hyperinflation will be eliminated by the redenomination.
• Project boost: When more investors become interested in the token, they will invest more in the project and such project will be boosted. More people will now be interested in it and the project will gain more capital for improvements.
• A better value for the token; In some cases where the token was extremely devalued before the redenomination was done, the redenomination can help to add more value to the token. It will attract more investors; small and bug, and they will give more capital to the project by investing in the token.

DISADVANTAGES TO TOKEN REDENOMINATION.

• Fees: Swapping the old token for the new one that has been made available after the redenomination will cost you a fee. In some cases it might be a very high fee while some might not be so high. But the fact is that you will do it for a fee and this might discourage some people from swapping their old tokens for the new one.
• Swapping rate; In some cases, the token that you will receive after the swapping might be fewer than the amount of token that you swapped. This rate could also discourage the holders of the old token from doing the swap and then the redenomination might end up not being a successful one. This might not be a very frequent thing, but it is possible.

DO ALL CRYPTOCURRENCY PROJECT NEED TO DO TOKEN REDENOMINATION?

Token redenomination is an important tool for cryptocurrency projects that it's token has really been devalued. But it is really not necessary for all cryptocurrency projects, token redenomination is done when the token has experienced massive devaluation or hyperinflation. But it is not all the cryptocurrency projects that witness such things, some cryptocurrency projects have enjoyed smooth running for years without witnessing any devaluation or hyperinflation, so token redenomination will definitely be unnecessary for such cryptocurrency projects.
Token redenomination is always done when a cryptocurrency project is not going as expected, so that the developers of the project will have the opportunity to make the necessary changes and corrections. But if the project is going well as planned, then token redenomination will not be necessary for the token of such project.
So a cryptocurrency project that is progressing as planned without hyperinflation, or devaluation does not need token redenomination.
