in #blockchain7 years ago

When it comes to FIAT money, the most respected analysts working with hedge funds will rely on well-established trading structures that tie the perceived value of an asset to its economic performance on micro and macro levels. Most of these specialists work toward the convergence of trade value and intrinsic value, in the long run, to get earnings from underrated and underperforming assets. Imagine for a minute how to apply these principles to cryptocurrencies.

Working on integration

That’s exactly the work being developed by Sharpe Capital. The company is working to create a platform that allows the understanding of multiple angles and approaches to the digital currency market. The initiative is looking to apply the basic logic behind a hedge fund to digital currencies using well-known techniques such as sentiment analysis and quantitative trade along new technology such as artificial intelligence and linguistic analysis.

New scenarios, Old Tricks

Sharpe Capital is coming to the digital currencies field applying an old trick to a new market. Their primary intention is to gauge investor sentiment into the world of cryptocurrencies to expand the market and make a push towards massification.

For the users the interface works in a very simple fashion: the platform offers their users continuous updates about the behavior of a specific asset or digital currency. When the user studies the behavior of said assets, he’s offered the chance to state his opinion about its future market behavior. If the opinion of the user proves to be valid in the short run, he’s awarded an incentive in Ethereum. Users are also offered the opportunity to build a reputation among their peers inside the platform, and his thoughts on an asset will be used to gauge its value for upcoming investors.

While the process might seem to rely heavily on sentiment analysis, the fact is that it is only a fraction of the whole equation. Sharpe Capital has also developed the technology to work precise analysis methods for digital currencies such as macro and micro indicators, a linguistic analysis that takes data on every available source on social media where a particular asset might be discussed. This flood of information is handled both by human analysts and a central AI that holds the algorithms that are central to the system.

Tokenization

Currently, the company is in fast development and ready to capitalize on their ideas, they are currently undergoing a regulatory process that it’s not uncommon among new ICO offerings. The SHP is their initial token offering and it’s the one currently offered to upcoming partners. Those who chose to participate in the initial offering will earn the right to claim early rewards in Ethereum and a vote in future discussions on investments of holdings of the company. After the regulatory process ends, users will be able to claim the SCD token. This currency will allow them to receive dividends from the hedge fund allocated for initial contributors, and the payout will work very much like stockholder shares are collected in bi-annual meetings.

Sharpe Capital’s ICO began on November 13th and it will end on February 5th of 2018. 40% of the capital raised will be destined to the partner’s investment fund, while 20% will be destined to keep the operation running.

I did noticed this project few days ago and after I read throughout the Whitepaper, I have decided it is a good project with a lot of potential both for the team behind it as for investors. Thanks for sharing it here!
