<summary>How does Lingo generate value?</summary>

One of the most exciting aspects of Lingo is its exponential model, which combines the power of real estate, blockchain, and community to create a unique and innovative loyalty program. Here is how it works:

Lingo uses a portion of the platform's revenue to buy real estate properties around the world. These properties generate rental income.\
\
Lingo reinjects 100% of its net rental income to buy back from its fixed supply every month. Buybacks are used to fuel Lingo’s rewards ecosystem consistently, no matter the market conditions.

Reward points are airdropped to the community and can be redeemed for a wide range of real-world benefits.

This means more rewards -> bigger community -> higher trading volume -> more real-world assets -> more rewards -> bigger community -> rinse and repeat

<summary>Who is behind Lingo?</summary>

Lingo was founded by serial entrepreneur HM Rawat, and David Amsellem, who built the world’s no.1 premium loyalty company, John Paul, which was acquired by Accor Hotels in 2016 for $150M. The founders spotted an opportunity to reshape the $200 billion loyalty program industry with blockchain technology to benefit the community in the first place. Industry veterans from Binance, Booking.com, Consensys and CA bank joined Lingo to build the world’s first community reward token..

<summary>What are the real-world assets that power Lingo’s value creation system? </summary>

Lingo’s value creation system is powered by a portfolio of real-world assets, such as short-term rental apartments. These assets generate revenue from their operations, which is used to fuel the reward system.

Lingo has 3 main criteria for choosing their RWA portfolio:

1. Tier 1 Jurisdiction: The target is big cities like Paris, Dubai, and Miami.
2. Stable long-term yield: 6% average target.
3. Should be optimized for short-term rentals (ideally 7-9%, with the ability to beef up utility value for the benefit of the community).

It is important to note that Lingo does NOT tokenize the real estate it owns, and is NOT a real-world asset tokenization protocol. Lingo tokenizes only the yield of its RWA and is a utility token with the primary objective of being the world’s most rewarding token.

Lingo also leverages its partnerships to negotiate bulk orders and discounts, leading to higher rewards for its users.

<summary>What is the vision behind Lingo?</summary>

The world we live in is controlled by small groups of powerful people, and corporations who own most of the power and capital. That’s why the Web3 movement started, to give power back to the people and communities around the world. Today, if you drive in New York city, all skyscrapers generate profits for a bunch of shareholders. Imagine the world where you see buildings generating value for one purpose only, to reward the community with real world rewards. Every year the community grows more powerful, the real estate pool grows more powerful and the rewards pool grows more powerful. Until one of the most powerful organizations in the world isn’t owned by a group of shareholders, but by millions of people.
