SFP token has seen a bearish start to the year. It’s currently trading at almost 80% below its March 2021 peak.

Yet, 2021 saw huge strides for the token. SFP is listed on 31 exchanges. Veronica Huang, SafePal’s CEO, called it a “splendid year for SafePal”, full of “wonderful moments”.

With crypto seemingly entering a bear market, can SFP recover its past highs? We look ahead to the SFP price prediction. 

SAFEPAL COIN PRICE FORECAST

What is SafePal token?

Founded in 2018, the token’s parent company, SafePal, according to the project’s whitepaper, is powered by four core components.

The first is SafePal hardware and software wallets, which represent the company’s key offering.

Secondly, SafePal Earn, an asset management platform which aggregates CeFi and Defi wealth creation programmes. 

The third pillar of SafePal’s business model is its ‘ecosystem’, which it describes as the relationships between partners, developers and the SafePal community. 

And finally, the SFP Token, which acts as’ the fuel of the SafePal ecosystem’.  The token is the native cryptocurrency issued on the Binance Smart Chain and has a fixed supply of 500m.

A key feature is that users can access discounts on SafePal products when they pay using the SFP token, including SafePal wallets and trading services within the App.

The token also allows users to stake SFP to yield extra interest from the SafePal Earn programs. Tokens also come with voting rights. Users can (subject to holding requirements) create proposals and vote for the Treasury fund usage and new features such as adding new blockchains on SafePal products. 

Crucially, STP token holders gain access to campaigns launched on the SafePal platform such as Wallet Holder Offerings (WHOs) and Giftbox campaigns. The five 2021 WHO campaigns dropped a total value of $40,134,359.04 based on ATH price to the SafePal community, with the average value captured per user reaching $2,365.43.

SFP/USD price analysis

According to data from ICO Drops, SFP token’s initial coin offering (ICO) was launched on 8 February 2021, with an opening price of $0.98. The price spiked to a high of $3.44 on 9 February 2021, before dipping to $2.47 by the following day - around a 28% decrease. 

On 16 February 2021 Kraken Security Labs identified vulnerabilities with the flagship SafePal S1 hardware wallet, including ineffective tamper detection and open source licensing violations. SafePal responded, stressing that Kraken had not been able to steal cryptocurrency from the wallet. The price rallied to $3.24 on 17 Feb.

Issues of network congestion and DeFi hacking in the spring of 2021 contributed to SFP’s bear run, and the token reached an all-time low of $0.64 on 24 June.

On 9 October 2021, SafePal announced its first exclusive GameFi event with DreamsQuest. The campaign period (9 October -12 October) saw the SFP token price spike from $1.09 to $2.81 (an increase of 157.8%), before falling to $1.89 on 16 October.

This bear run continued, with the SafePal coin price dropping to $1.27 by 18 November 2021, before recovering to $2.41 by 26 November, when another Wallet Holder Offering with YokaiSwap was issued.

With crypto entering a bear market, 2022 has opened with a drip, the price having fallen from $1.54 on 1 January 2022 to $0.8446 on 16 February 2022.

According to CoinMarketCap, out of the total supply of 500m SFP tokens, only 108.2m are currently in circulation - 22%. At the time of writing (16 February 2022), SFP has a market capitalization of over $91.303m and a rank of 413.

Latest drivers of the SFP token price

One of SafePal’s defining features is its integration of the token, wallet and asset management streams. We take a closer look at how these core components shaped the SafePal token price in 2021.

Wallet Holder Offerings 

WHO is an exclusive airdrop program designed to increase SFP demand by rewarding SafePal software and hardware wallet users by providing access to airdrop tokens from SafePal partners. 2021 saw SafePal partner with emerging projects in different niche market segments, such as decentralised finance (DeFi), GameFi and non-fungible tokens (NFT).

WHO announcements have been a significant driver of token price movement since the ICO. On 16 March 2021, SafePal premiered its Wallet Holder Offering (WHO) scheme. To qualify, SafePal Wallet users needed to hold SFP tokens in their wallets. The announcement fuelled demand, pushing the token to an all time high of $3.56 22 March 2021.

On 9 October, SafePal announced its first exclusive GameFi event with DreamsQuest, allowing SafePal users to play to earn $DREAMS tokens and access an NFT event. Across the campaign period (9 October -12 October), the price spiked from $1.09 to $2.81 - a jump of over 150%. 

After November 2021’s bear run saw the SFP token price fall to $1.27 on 18 November, the announcement of another Wallet Holder Offering with YokaiSwap saw the SFP token price recover to $2.41 by 26 November. 

SafePal Earn 

SafePal Earn represents one of SafePal’s key offerings, and aims to deliver convenient asset management to users. SafePal Earn integrates protocols from different blockchains in one place, and aims to provide a safe and convenient way for users to yield from their crypto holdings, and was launched in October 2021.

The launch was beset by difficulties. Originally expected to go live in Q2 2021, the release was delayed after a series of DeFi hacking cases necessitated a longer security audit.

In an April 2021 SafePal news update, the company also announced that “rapid user growth and the bull market have brought up new problems that need to be solved with higher priority”, blaming network congestion on Ethereum and the Binance Smart Chain for diverting resources away from SafePal Earn. 

Following these difficulties, SFP token fell to $0.82 on 23 May, and bottomed out to an all time low of $0.64 on 24 June 2021. 

CHART

Discounts

A key utility of the SFP token is that it allows access to discounts on SafePal products and services, including SafePal’s flagship wallets.

On 25 December 2021, SafePal issued a Christmas Giftbox offer, giving 10% $SFP cashback to customers who purchased an S1 Hardware Wallet using SafePal Pay. The SFP price rose from $1.59 to $1.78 by day’s end - an increase of almost 12%.

The difference between trading assets and CFDs
The main difference between CFD trading and trading assets, such as commodities and stocks, is that you don’t own the underlying asset when you trade on a CFD.
You can still benefit if the market moves in your favour, or make a loss if it moves against you. However, with traditional trading you enter a contract to exchange the legal ownership of the individual shares or the commodities for money, and you own this until you sell it again.
CFDs are leveraged products, which means that you only need to deposit a percentage of the full value of the CFD trade in order to open a position. But with traditional trading, you buy the assets for the full amount. In the UK, there is no stamp duty on CFD trading, but there is when you buy stocks, for example.
CFDs attract overnight costs to hold the trades (unless you use 1-1 leverage), which makes them more suited to short-term trading opportunities. Stocks and commodities are more normally bought and held for longer. You might also pay a broker commission or fees when buying and selling assets direct and you’d need somewhere to store them safely.
