Title: Is there a Crypto Index? Post by: Cardan0 on January 17, 2018, 11:28:54 PM I think it would be very interesting to have some short of crypto index, like the FTSE or the NIKKEI with the main cryptos and tokens out there to have a grasp of the market. An ideally, there could be some secondary indexes.

Although to be honest, just following the crypto total market cap or the price of bitcoin itself will give a pretty clear indication on the market. Title: Re: Is there a Crypto Index?

Thanks! I've been looking around for something like this. I want to compare my overall returns since inception to something. Title: Re: Is there a Crypto Index?

You have a point in there. Everything is much too related to bitcoin with all those trading and arbitrage bots, but still, I would like to see the evolution on an index. Thanks for the tip.

I know of Crypto20, but I am not looking for an investment fund, but something like an index and possibly other indexes by sector. Nowadays - Insurance, Payment tools, chain tech, ai, logistics....

Can you elaborate a little? Are you looking for traditional investment (i.e., mainstream stock market) or cryptocurrency investment? Is your point you want sector-focused ICO indexes? It is an interesting idea, if so. Title: Re: Is there a Crypto Index?

It is an interesting idea, if so. Yep, that would be the main idea. A general index and then sectorial indexes. That way you could get a quick feeling of the market and also of the different main sectors. As today, sectors could be: - Chains and chain cross talking - Identity services - Wallets and exchanges. - Financial and credit - AI - Trading - Network services (data storage, distributed computing, ...) - etc... |
