Tangible

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Investors were outraged in the year 2023 when Tangible’s USDR stablecoin crashed badly. Drawing itself as a stablecoin backed by real estate, USDR stablecoin had big returns and financial stability for its investors. Nevertheless, if one digs in deeper, he will find many instances of concealed family business and exorbitant margin of profit on properties.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Even as per a research by <a href="https://www.coindesk.com/business/2024/10/16/how-a-crypto-reit-misled-investors-with-family-deals-and-unjustified-real-estate-markups/?_gl=1*1s4pujk*_up*MQ..*_ga*MTAyNTMwMDU4NS4xNzI5MTQzNjkw*_ga_VM3STRYVN8*MTcyOTE0MzY5MC4xLjAuMTcyOTE0MzY5MC4wLjAuMTMzMDE2MDk1NA.." rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">crypto source</a>, Tangible manipulated its investors with flipping properties at higher prices thus affecting the value of USDR stablecoin directly. The effects of this crypto crash are still being experienced today and thus the story is found important as a warning to any investors in cryptocurrencies.</p> 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-the-tangible-scandal-21-markups-and-family-connections-strong"><strong>The Tangible Scandal: 21% Markups and Family Connections</strong></h2> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">One of the revelations made as a result of investigations conducted by Crypto source refers to an unfulfilled relationship between Jagpal Singh who is the CEO of Tangible and his brother Joshvun Singh. Joshvun’s related company BMS Luna Stacks purchased properties cheap, then sold the same at a higher price to Tangible, in some cases as high as 21%. These inflated prices were then transferred to investors through USDR stablecoin.</p> 
<p><img loading="lazy" loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-50933 size-full aligncenter" src="https://thebitjournal.b-cdn.net/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/105AF7A3-839A-4B3E-AE1C-9A1697AC13A4.webp" alt="USDR Stablecoin" width="1792" height="1024" title="How USDR's Crypto 'REIT' Deceived Investors with Fake Real-Estate Valuations 48"></p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">As stated by the representatives of the British real estate market, such increases are absolutely unjustified. Tommaso Gabrieli of the University College, London an associate professor of real estate stated on 29/03/2012, “Such a price increase on the same day or even in any short time doesn’t give any reason.”</p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Memorandums that we have seen state that mark-ups such as these inflated the value of Tangible’s assets by over £875000. The actual number could be much greater, with tens of millions of pounds possibly siphoned off from USDR’s accounts to the benefit of the Singh brothers.</p> 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-impact-on-investors-strong"><strong>Impact on Investors</strong></h2> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">To investors like ZilAYO, a crypto enthusiast who invested $50, 000 in USDR stablecoin, the existence of these family deals was an eye opener. He saw “red flags” just a few days prior to the stablecoin crashing, and thus sold his position before it was still too late. His rudeness stemmed from a bitter experience of the Terra-Luna blunder, which was a copy of the Shiva narrative.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">Others were not as lucky. Currently, most of the USDR stablecoin investors have yet to be paid back for their investments; this is as we speak in October 2024. Tangible has sought to sell nearly 200 properties, but it has only progressed slowly; some investors have lost their money. Nick Mansley, Executive Director of the University of Cambridge Real Estate Research Centre, was quoted saying: “It is difficult to dispute that investor interests have been placed first, which should be the focus”.</p> 
<h2 style="font-weight: 400;" id="strong-regulatory-avoidance-and-lack-of-clarity-strong"><strong>Regulatory avoidance and lack of clarity</strong></h2> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">This Tangible scandal increases the perception of the dangers of investing within crypto tokenized real estate related businesses that fall within the periphery of conventional financial regulations. By tokenizing real estate in an offshore manner, Tangible did not have to deal with laws governing REITs in the United Kingdom. This loophole enabled the company to carry out its business with very little regulation and, thus, did not inform investors about important facts concerning ownership of some properties and prices.</p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">Full-fledged transparency was also a concern suggested about Tangible. When investors demanded documents of ownership or questioned the massive prices of the properties, they were given ambiguous answers. That is why the company’s Chief Marketing Officer, Mike Slatkin, once stated that Tangible’s legal opinion was a competitive advantage that was unprofitable to disclose to investors.</p>

<p style="font-weight: 400;">The situation that happened with USDR stablecoin and Tangibles is an excellent example of such a warning for anyone willing to invest in the crypto-realtors and other similar projects. As these programmes offer the benefits of the blockchain and liquidity, they can also conceal these risks, primarily when regulatory protection is absent.</p> 
<p style="font-weight: 400;">By going to the next level of linking borrowers to funds, investors have to be very careful, insisting on project integrity as well as on disclosure of full information. Any emerging new crypto innovations should be learnt from previously made blunders and, most importantly, avoid falling prey to exaggerated claims and concealed enticements. The following stands as a guide to what future investors should expect in the unclear industry of crypto real estate investments based on Tangible’s failure.
