VELIC aims to bring more security and convenience to the cryptocurrency market so that more institutional investors could redirect to digital assets. One of the key services provided by VELIC is the asset management option, which is specifically designed for prudent investors are looking for sophisticated investment products.

Given that the crypto space is still at its nascent stage, it is difficult for investors, both institutional and retail ones, to accurately assess the investment opportunities. New tokens are showing up almost on a daily basis — some of them would fail within months while others would thrive. It takes an immense effort to anticipate their price, which makes the portfolio management process quite challenging.

The VELIC platform wants to help investors streamline the crypto portfolio management by offering its asset management service (VELIC AM). The startup will provide several investment products, objective indicators, and relevant reports.

VELIC’s Indexes

To make the investment process more efficient and to smooth the volatility noises, the VELIC AM service will provide several indexes, which will incorporate various market or theme aspects. You can think about them as popular indexes in the traditional finance, such as the S&P 500 index, which tracks the 500 largest public companies in the US.

Investing in indexes can be a better alternative to investing in individual tokens since assets underlying indexes are typically not as volatile. Besides, an investor who bets on an index is not really worried about the collapse of a particular project as the loss is mitigated by other components of the index.

Thus, VELIC AM proposes a suite of indexes that focus on various themes and strategies including platform, privacy or currency themes among others. Investors will be able to access the indexes through the VELIC Token (VELT), an exchange token that fuels the VELIC ecosystem. In traditional finance, one cannot directly invest in indexes like NASDAQ or S&P 500 and must instead access through vehicles such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs), mutual funds, and other types of funds that try to simulate the price of an index by proportionally investing in the underlying constituent companies. VELIC will achieve the same through its various funds and investment products that would rely on its cryptocurrency indexes.

Such vehicles are essential for the crypto market in the long run as they will facilitate participation by institutional investors, eventually helping the crypto space become a mature industry.

VELIC AM Products

Indexes are one of the key elements of VELIC’s asset management service. However, VELIC AM also comprises the informational side, which is fundamental for promoting price discovery. The market information will be provided via the official website and via reports.

Besides, VELIC users will be able to access several investment products that leverage the latest technologies further out in the future, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI).

VELIC AM will provide passive investment and active investment products, available primarily in the form of tokens. Such tokens will be issued via the “Token Distributor” and is expected to have tailored investment size and strategy depending on the need.
