# Summary for Shareholders # Summary for Shareholders
[To be added] The peg of SmartCoin to the underlying asset is crucial to create trust for SmartCoin holders, in combination with a force settlement offset that is considered fair. This BSIP seeks to adress the issue of volatility with respect to the peg by allowing the witnesses to implement (within boundaries) their own price feed strategy that is targeted to uphold the peg and provide a fair force settlement offset.
This is a crucial intrusion into the open market mechanics and is thus not a strict directive to the witnesses, furthermore this BSIP is constantly evaluated, and if it becomes rejected (see the next section), witnesses are bound to return to the former price feed mechanisms.
# Constant voting evaluation
