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?
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
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..
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.
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.
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.
