What is Inflation Hedging Coin?
Inflation Hedging Coin (IHC) is a cross-chain crypto asset designed to be a stable store of value for investors. HIC employs a token-burning technique to hedge against inflation and maintain the stability of the IHC price through the interplay of supply and demand. As such, the HIC proves a suitable tool for both short-term and long-term investments.

- X-META Exchange. The platform is a highly liquid cryptocurrency exchange running on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC).
- ICH DAO. This is a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) designed to increase IHC adoption.
- IHC Capital. The project is a venture capital firm focused on the crypto space.

The project employs continuous token burning that would drop the entire market cap from the initial supply of 1 trillion IHC to the amount held in the wallets of holders.

Token burning aims to protect the Inflation Hedging Coin price from inflation.
