The launch of Cryptocurrency Exchange Ranks powered by Hacken
Itβs never too late to get invested in cryptocurrencies. However, the threats posed by hackers, the high withdrawal fees, and many other crucial factors can hamper the process. With more than 200operating trading platforms, there are a lot of choices available, but the selection should be made after weighing parameters like liquidity, fee schedule, country (headquarters), trading facilities, etc.
Last month the Japan-based virtual currency exchange Coincheck refunded more than $440 million to clients after its systems were hacked. This was one of the largest thefts of its kind and not every crypto exchange is able to repay the damage. Thatβs why individual and professional traders spend weeks and months choosing the best crypto exchange. Itβs not surprising when it comes to big money-nobody wants to be fooled.
Hacken launched a new product that will save you time and efforts; it will ensure better transparency of the exchanges securing your funds. Crypto Exchange Ranks will do analysis, scoring, and benchmarking, making choosing a crypto exchange far easier.
The CER provides 24/7 analysis of data taken from real accounts opened on every crypto exchange. The information is thoroughly analyzed with advanced approaches to economic-mathematical modeling, artificial intelligence, machine learning, linguistic programming, and cybersecurity assessment. The processed data turns into inputs for multi-factor scoring model to get the most precise estimation.
As a result, the clients receive accurate and up to date ratings of trading platforms that significantly enhance everyday decision-making processes.
What are the parameters to count on?
We have identified 9 main problems that can hinder the success of a trading platform. You are most probably aware of liquidity, lack of cybersecurity, and expensive withdrawal processes. But have you ever heard of βkitchen-cheating?β
You wonβt probably find any valuable information on Google. Still, the opportunity should be taken into account. The term comes from conventional stock exchanges; nevertheless, the situation of kitchen exchange is possible in crypto as well. In the worst case, fake exchanges and brokers create withdrawal barriers for the clients so they can no longer trade or invest successfully. Now you can resolve this and other problems on CER platform.
Ask the product owner
We interviewed the product owner, Dmytro Shestakov to get an insight on how the product was developed and how it works.
How the idea with CER came to your mind?
Once Dmytro Budorin (CEO of Hacken) and I were brainstorming on the idea of creating the product that will analyze the reliability of ICOs based on virtual screening models. However, after organizing some focus groups with our colleagues from China and the Republic of Korea, we found out that the crypto exchange rating is more topical. People need the ultimate solution on what crypto exchange to use and why. More of that, they need a multi-faceted product.
What was the most challenging while launching the project?
Well, definitely the product development is the toughest thing. However, it was not easy to create a team of specialists who would be able to turn the idea into reality.
Are you educating your team members or hiring people with skills and experience?
We hired only the specialists with the senior level of expertise. Every team member has enormous experience in the realization of complex decisions.
What kind of specialist is working on the project?
We have 5 main directions:
Economic-mathematical modeling in risk assessment.
Artificial Intelligence and machine learning algorithmization.
Itβs literally everyone! Individual investors, institutional investors, traders (HFT), crypto exchanges, independent governmental agencies, and traditional financial institutes. By latter, I mean the establishments which donβt have direct exposure on cryptocurrency but they need tools to analyze risks.
Wrapping up: There is no doubt a need for a reliable system to evaluate cryptocurrency exchanges exists. No one has ever defined the main parameters, the scope of data, and types of specialists needed to analyze the trustability of a trading platform like CER has today. Until October 1, 2018, you can explore Crypto Exchange Ranks scoring dashboards for free. Now, have a look at how the CER will change the rules of the game.
The blockchain industry has been grappling with scalability issues, which have hindered widespread adoption due to its technical constraints. As the demand for blockchain, decentralized applications (dApps), and transactions increases, the limitations of existing networks become increasingly apparent. High transaction fees and network congestion have plagued platforms like Ethereum, hampering their ability to support large-scale
The experimental semi-fungible token standard, ERC-404, combines elements from ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokens. Despite rising popularity, it has yet to secure an official Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) designation. However, its unique attributes, such as enabling fractional ownership of NFTs and enhancing liquidity, coupled with the potential for automated NFT minting and burning processes, suggest a
Decentralized applications (dApps) are software that run on a decentralized network, often using blockchain technology. These applications can serve various purposes for end users, such as brokers, art collectors, traders, investors, and documents of public trust. However, their functionality and value attract malicious groups aiming to exploit vulnerabilities for financial gain. This article explores real-world examples of dApp security breaches, their attack vectors, and the lessons learned.
