A reserve price is the minimum acceptable amount for which an asset can be sold, particularly in an auction or sale. In digital asset markets, especially for non-fungible tokens or tokenized real-world assets, the reserve price is a predetermined value below which the seller will not complete a transaction. It serves to protect the seller from liquidating an asset at an undesirably low valuation. This mechanism ensures that a sale only proceeds if bids meet or exceed the set minimum.
