Designing Price Stability for Human Timeframes

Crypto markets move quickly, often reflecting short-term trading behavior. However, many real-world financial decisions—such as housing, rent, and long-term planning—operate on monthly cycles rather than minute-by-minute price changes.

ATEG introduces a monthly Index Price Model to better align crypto pricing with these longer timeframes.

At the end of each month, the protocol records the lowest and highest traded prices during that period and calculates their average. This average becomes the reference index price for the following month.

The index does not restrict trading activity or suppress market volatility. Market prices continue to fluctuate freely, and price discovery remains intact.

Instead, the model provides a clear, time-based reference that supports predictable planning while preserving open-market dynamics.

By separating short-term volatility from monthly economic coordination, ATEG aims to improve the practical usability of digital assets in real-world financial contexts.
