Project Description
The current situation on the cryptographic markets is characterized by illiquidity, enormous volatility and a serious asymmetry of information among the participants. This makes it urgent to provide investors with comprehensive information that makes it easier for them to stay in the jungle of crypto currencies and to make buying and selling decisions based on valid data and trend analyses. This is where the CoinAnalyst application comes in. It provides an AI based big data analytics platform that allows any trader in the crypto asset sector and other industries to access a dashboard that monitors and analyzes real-time crypto market data. It collects continuously and almost in real time all relevant information about crypto currencies and ICOs from all available sources.This enables the user to identify opportunities and risks and react promptly and proactively to price fluctuations. The application thus creates a high degree of transparency when it comes to operating in this new and volatile market. The basis for this platform is the proven award-winning Cogia technology that enables semantic indexing and structuring of online data by means of pattern recognition and artificial intelligence. It has already been used successfully by renowned customers like DAX groups. CoinAnalyst launched a German ICO and issued its own tokens COY. These tokens can either be traded on crypto currency exchanges or used directly to purchase the services of CoinAnalyst.
CoinAnalyst offers:
- Transparency;
- Innovativeness;
- Deflationary Burning Model
- GLOBALIZATION ;
