Trakx - The perfect crypto tracking vehicle

in #crypto5 years ago (edited)

INTRODUCTION
The crypto market is characterized with a lot of challenges such as high volatility and scams. Thus, there is need for investors to have a vehicle such as CTIs to track the performance of crypto underlings. ETFs is also known as Bitcoins exchange traded funds and according to Ernest & Young, global ETFs net asset has risen from $0.7 trillion in 2008 to an estimated value if $4.4 trillion in 2017, and this figure is predicted to grow in similar pace to 7.6 trillion in 2020.

Trakx believes that there are a lot of goldmines in the cryptocurrency markets that are yet to be tapped by crypto investors and it wishes to address this issue by making cryptocurrency investing cheaper, easier and accessible to a large number of investors.

WHAT IS TRAKX?
IMG_20181201_012356_664.jpg
Trakx is a platform for creating, distributing and trading crypto trackers. Crypto trackers, also called Coin Traded Indices (CTIs), are asset-backed tokens which significantly reduce the complexity and fees associated with the setting up either short and long positions of various cryptocurrency. Users will be able to trade onto the platform digital tokens that are positively or negatively correlated to the tracked underlying crypto assets. Trakx will progressively offer a wide panel of CTIs which will include, non-exhaustively, inverse trackers, levered trackers, basket trackers and stablecoins.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF CTIs

  1. LONG BASKET CTIs: It is a set of cryptocurrencies selected by Trakx with the goal of tracking the performance of stated index. For example, Trakx will offer investors the possibility to track the market-weighted performance of the 5 largest cryptocurrencies. Long basket CTIs enable to profit from a rise in the value of underlying benchmark and it moves in the same direction as the tracked cryptocurrencies benchmark. Long basket CTIs will be ERC20 asset-backed in one-to-one ratio..

  2. INVERSE CTIs: It enable to profit from decline in the value of the underlying benchmark. If a trader is bearish on a particular cryptocurrency (baskets) or wants to hedge a long position on another cryptocurrencies or basket of cryptocurrencies, he/she simply buys the corresponding CTI when the trader believes that the downturn as run it course, he/she can sell the CTI to unwind the position.

  3. INVERSE BASKET CTIs: Inverse basket CTIs functions in the same way as inverse CTIs, rather the difference is that, while inverse CTIs track the performance of one selected cryptocurrency, inverse basket CTIs offer traders the opportunity to easily short sell an overall basket of cryptocurrencies, thus multiplying their potential profits when the underlying cryptocurrencies decline.

  4. STABLECOIN: Trakx intends to integrate stablecoin later on the platform. It will reduce users exposure to cryptocurrencies and Will be used for shorter period of time when volatility is high and users are unsure as to which side of the trade they should take. Stablecoins will be ERC20 fiat currency asset-backed tokens in a one-one ratio. Trakx will buy and hold the underlying currencies and convert whichever cryptocurrency received at the moment of transaction into whichever fiat currency a stablecoin will be pegged to, then deposit this fiat currency into an account with the same denomination.

BENEFITS OF TRAKX

  • INSTANT DIVERSIFICATION: With CTIs such as basket CTIs, investors can quickly gain portfolio exposure to specific cryptocurrencies.
  • SECURITY: A vast majority of the cryptocurrencies composing index would be secured and stored offline in cold wallets.
  • LOW COST: Trakx will make the investing of CTIs cheaper.
  • TRADING FLEXIBILITY: CTIs will be readily available on the platform for investors to trade anytime of the day.
  • TRANSPARENCY: CTIs will be able to track a third-party index, thus reducing conflict of interest. Also, CTIs reserves will be constantly audited by four big audit firms and holdings will be published periodically for investors to check and monitor the growth of their CTI investment.
  • PASSIVE MANAGEMENT It is designed to track index and limits actively buying and selling of securities. Passive strategy has advantage over active strategy as it overpowers active strategy and provides better returns base on cost saving.
  • SINGLE ACCESS POINT: Trakx will be a one-stop shop for crypto trackers such as long, leveraged, inverse, basket etc and will save investors the time of opening multiple accounts in different platforms and undergoing KYC process..

BENEFITS OF HAVING AN EXCHANGE
Trakx intends to create an exchange to allow CTIs to be traded and will also offer the following benefits:

  • It will partner with market makers to sustainably improve the liquidity of the trackers.
  • Well insulated against legal risk.
  • Offer a secure go-to platform for our CTI customers.
  • Offer creation/redemption centers where CTI investors can redeem CTI tokens as their net asset value and market makers
    can create new units when demand is high.
  • Offer centralized off-chain settlement center that will reduce management and other general trading fees.

Hi @mylane

I just replied to your comment in my recent post related to 1200 SP. Please go and check it out :)

Thank you one more time for reaching out to me. Hope you will enjoy my little support and delegation of 40 SP.

ps
My efforts has been supported by few people and I would like to ask you to give me small favour. What favour is that? Nothing big really. Just open link below and add it to your favourites (if you don't mind).

http://steemit.com/@piotr.delegators/feed

You may wonder what the heck is that? I created this account to follow those few people who delegated Steem Power to me in the first place. Without them I would not be able to support you.

Since they are all passionate about crypto, I decided to help them get new followers and bring more engagement to their posts. So this link is nothing else but newsfeed from their accounts.

I would love to ask you if you could start building your engagement on Steemit from visiting this page and showing your support to them. Anytime you can. Just drop an upvote and some valuable comment. Those guys are really worth our time and attention (plus they are all very responsive).

Every few weeks I will be monitoring who is engaging with them most and personally I will give those people my extra attention. That's my idea. I will do my best to reward those, who are supporting those few delegators.

So it's a win-win situation for everyone. You can get some delegation and support, they will get more traffic and I'm building my influence (since I'm right in the middle of all of it).

How does it sound? :) Hope I can count on you.

Have a great day ahead,
cheers
Piotr
