Caspian providing all you need to manage your crypto portfolio
INTRODUCTION
The blockchain was first introduced in 2008 with the purpose of serving as the public transaction for bitcoin and since then the concept of digital assets has continued to increase especially as bitcoin was a success. Many people including myself who did not benefit from bitcoin because we did not invest in it at the early stage because we were ignorant or scared of taking risk have promised themselves not to make the same mistake twice and so a lot of people are adopting the concept of investing and making transactions in digital assets. The number is quite high, as of April this year there we're over 1565 cryptocurrency available with the most successful being Bitcoin followed by Etherum, Ripple , Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin and Eos. Though the large number has helped grow the market, it has also increased the problems faced in the market.
THE PROBLEM
With over 1565 cryptocurrency in the market and over 200 exchange platforms in which five have exceeded 1 billion USD equivalent in daily trading volume, and several others exceeding 100 million dollars in daily trading volume, it would be difficult to list all the cryptocurrency that have been issued. Fragmentation of both cryptocurrency and exchanges is therefore expected to be a persistent feature in the blockchain market in the near to medium term.
Unreliable Trade Execution
Trading in the crypro market has a lot of challenges one of which is unreliable trade execution, because of the current fragmentation of digital assets exchanges coupled with the relatively low trading volumes when compared to the traditional markets it often creates problems around liquidity and slippage. Because most of this big digital asset exchanges started as small ventures and grew rapidly over a short period of time, most times they cannot handle large order volumes which most of the times leads to high latency. This can greatly affect institutional traders and they end up losing even after using great strategies because their trades where not executed on time. Imagine a situation where I want to quickly buy a cryptocurrency who's value has dropped with the hope of it rising and that i would make a lot of profit from it but unfortunately for me due to technical difficulties I am unable to make the trade and eventually when the system has been rectified it's too late as the prices have gone up and I end up losing from that trade because it's execution was delayed
Lack of Security
If you know much about digital assets you would also know that there's a lot of risk involved as this exchanges are vulnerable to hacks for example the Mt. Gox hack in which about 473 million dollars worth of bitcoin was stolen, The DAO hack in which about 50 million dollars worth of Ether was stolen just to mention but a few. Existing exchanges lack many of the customer protections offered by trading platforms in traditional markets which include effective customer support and risk management capabilities. This is a crucial element of trading in any asset class. For example in the traditional markets you can manage your risks by automatically setting a trade to close the moment price is dropping below a set price.
THE CASPIAN SOLUTION
We have successful been able to highlight the problems facing the crypto trading markets. Allow me to introduce Caspian the solution to all the problems mentioned above. Caspian achieves this by providing a sophisticated connectivity and interoperability accross the numerous exchanges in the market, it is a complete asset management solution which covers the whole period of a trade. Caspian makes sure that the trader is fully equipped with comprehensive OEMS, PMS and RMS alongside good customer support. It is not the desire of caspian to bring confusion into the digital assets space or compete with existing exchanges but rather help the market grow by ensuring the purchase of digital assets instrument in a reliable manner to a large number of people thereby helping to bring liquidity, volume and dynamism to the digital asset space.
Caspian is a joint venture between two firms, Tora and Kenetic, each of which have successful track records in asset management and cryptocurrency investing. Tora is a leading supplier of asset management technology, including an OEMS that averages monthly notional equity volume exceeding US$100 billion and is currently responsible for 17% of Japanese institutional equity trading volume. The company, with connectivity to over 150 equities and derivatives exchanges, as well as clients in North America, Asia, Europe and Australia, is ideally positioned to launch Caspian, which will be the first large-scale institutional infrastructure specifically aimed at traditional asset management firms, and market makers.
