ETF like Investment Platform Before CBOE; CoinBunlde

This article will present the new cryptocurrency investment platform which is one of the very few of its’ kind; ‘CoinBundle’. CoinBundle is created to serve as a cryptocurrency investment tool to make investing in cryptocurrencies especially simple and accessible to everybody.

In this article, you will be able to find information regarding this emerging cryptocurrency investment tool, the features of the platform and the bounty program which is live at the moment. Although there are many cryptocurrency exchanges exist and a new one opens very often either centralized or decentralized, they offer almost the same trading opportunities such as; crypto to crypto and/or crypto to fiat and vice versa. Coinbundle on the other hand, presents trading opportunities into bundles which contain a number of selected tokens/coins.

Introduction
Investment tools which are capable to provide high returns such as stocks and real estate portfolios have only been accessible to the wealthy peoples in societies. This limitation is one of the reasons which contribute to global income inequality. Cryptocurrencies brought the individuals the opportunity to enjoy the high returns on their investments and gain their financial freedom.

Although cryptocurrency market has reached a market cap of 800 Billion USD and 50 Billion USD daily trading volume as all-time highs, it is still in its’ infancy as only 8% of Americans and 1% of the people globally own cryptocurrencies. It is expected that the market capitalization of cryptocurrencies will reach 40 Trillion USD.

Introduction of index funds Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) provided investors to receive higher return rates than those run by investment experts. Creation of ETFs on the other hand, has made index strategies easily accessible to people in developed markets. Therefore, passively managed bundled investment products such as ETFs have become a reliable and low-cost methods for retail investors to obtain a diversified portfolio of asset classes without the need to research on the assets exist in the market. These features of ETFs made them popular among other investment tools, increasing the amount of assets invested in amount each year.

Although adoption of ETFs is growing, they are still available largely to certain economies, mostly purchased by people who are knowledgeable in investing and live in developed countries.

For cryptocurrency markets on the other hand, ETFs and products similar to those will become popular means of investment for most retail investors and newcomers to the crypto-space who lacks the knowledge and time to manage a diversified portfolio. As you consider the higher accessibility of the cryptocurrencies (or ETFs and products similar to them composed of cryptocurrencies) by simply anyone around the world independent of their income levels, it would not be wrong to say that such investment tools based on cryptocurrency would help individuals’ wealth growth and macroeconomic development of societies and countries.

Problem
Since cryptocurrency is its’ infancy, cryptocurrency exchanges are relatively new and all of them provide investment options for single cryptocurrencies. In order to be able to use these exchanges for buying or selling a cryptocurrency, one needs to be an experienced trader. These exchanges are too complicated for an average investor to manage a portfolio. Bundled investment options on the other hand, are very few in number and only available to either accredited investors who need to invest huge amounts of money (25.000 or 250.000 USD as minimum) or offer only limited options (fixed distribution of funds through a single instrument).

Moreover, these bundled investment options have the same or higher management fees than traditional financial institutions. These cons still prevent retail investors to access these tools.

Solution
CoinBundle aims to solve the wide accessibility problem of highly profitable assets and owning a diversified cryptocurrency portfolio by providing an ETF-like product on a decentralized structure. CoinBundle have already launched with 6 bundles available for trading at the moment. Later, two additional in-platform marketplace features will be added, namely BundleMarket and BunldeRewards. These two features maximize utility from the platform and deliver a unique value proposition for investors. The BundleMarket will provide a range of investment opportunities to bundle purchasers and the BundleRewards platform will allow exchange of BNDL tokens in return for key investment and promotion tasks.

Core Product: ‘CoinBundle’
CoinBundle offers its’ users to buy and sell bundles of coins. The bundles are composed of selected cryptocurrencies of which percentage of each one is determined based on a specific set of criteria such as, market capitalization, volatility, and technology stack. At the beginning, each bundle will be valued based on the underlying asset price of 100 USD in order to determine the composition of each coin then the value of each bundle would change according to the price change of each individual coin.

There are three bundles at the moment offered by CoinBundle which are created and optimized by the in-house financial team. Those are the Conservative 2 Bundle, the Aggressive 10 Bundle, the Emerging 10 Bundle, the Halal Bundle, Coinbasic Bundle and Topl 20 Bundle.

Existing Bundles Explained
Conservative 2 Bundle (CON2) is composed of BTC and ETH both with 50% weight. Both coins have performed well over the last year and they comprise the 60% of the total market capitalisation. Conservative 2 is the less volatile of the bundles.

The Aggressive 10 Bundle contains both BTC and ETH along with 8 other alternative coins with medium to low market cap. BTC and ETH is added to lower the volatility of the bundle. Lower market cap coins have higher weights over higher market cap ones in this bundle. Upcoming main-net and other releases are given a higher weight than others.
The Emerging 10 Bundle is composed of 10 coins which have promising technology behind them. The projects and teams of the coins are scored on six main indicators as part of the analysis such as, team and advisory board, whitepaper, progress (including Github), token metrics, hype/traction and positive/negative news. Bundle composition will be evaluated periodically with composition and weights to be adjusted accordingly.

The Halal Bundle on the other hand, needs to contain coins or projects which are compliant with Islamic Finance Rules. There are two coins which are BTC and XLM at the moment with 40 and 60% of weights respectively.

The Coinbasic Bundle is composed of five coins provided by Coinbase exchange. This bundle is for those who want to get instant access to the 5 more commonly accepted and deeply vetted cryptocurrencies instantly and at a low cost. Bundle contains BTC, ETH, BCH, LTC and ETC with weights of 75%, 15%, 6,5% 2,5% and 1% respectively.

The Top 20 Bundle has got the top 20 coins of the market based on total market capitalization. Each coin has a weight of 5% in this bundle. This bundle is ideal for investors who want to diversify their holdings across a wide variety of cryptocurrencies without spending time and effort investigating and buying them independently.

Eventually, there will be an opportunity for anyone to create their own unique bundles either to buy themselves or promote them to others.

CoinBundle Token (BNDL)
The CoinBundle Token is an ERC20 standard token based on Ethereum blockchain with core utility on the platform. BNDL token economy established will support the overall success of the business. Since tokens will be distributed across millions of users, there will be a wide user base which will result in a strong community and support for the token. Besides, rewards given in BNDL will incentivise users to hold tokens for a long period of time. As the number of bundles grow in the platform, the value of BNDL tokens will increase since the supply of tokens is fixed.
