We will have a Bounty Program, subscribe for the updates on https://sociumtrade.com.

We're not conducting an ICO as in its usual form, there is a TSE only, where you have a chance to buy Socium tokens and use them instantly. SociumTrade is not collecting investments and is not projecting any passive income or positive price prediction.
 

Traders will be able to create portfolios for different strategies and present multiple offerings to the market.

This option will be available soon, feel free to subscribe to our newsletters and follow the updates.

There will be referral program, no Airdrop is planned.

The Socium Deals Executor – a fully decentralized investment engine, will control funds and funds distribution in the following ways:
1) deal constraints like duration, effective date, amount, asset classes, fees and number of participants;
2) interaction with SociumTrade via smart contract-exposed methods;
3) assemble permissions for associated portfolio.

The White Paper will soon be published on the website and all the detailed information on the project will be provided there.

Yes, KYC is a must.

The Core will be primed with advanced “know-your-customer” (KYC) and anti-money-laundering (AML) services. A lot of effort is being been put into safeguarding the system against potential external threats and avoiding legal grey areas. User data will be stored securely and in accordance with international standards such as the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation.

Investment pool can be open or closed, with open pools accepting unsolicited applications, and membership in closed pools available only by invitation. When an investor receives an invitation to join an investment pool, he receives the terms and bylaws of that investment pool, as well. Those terms govern investment rules, profit sharing, and fee structures associated with the investment pool. Unlike trading consortiums, in investment pools the founder can charge a management fee for the services he or she provides. An investor must accept the terms of the investment pool in order to join it. Yes, you will be able to organize your own pools, say a "family pool", for instance.

Yes. Public ICO will start on 1st of December.

SociumTrade v.0.1 is expected to go live in November 2018.

Traders will be able to build their reputation by showcasing the skills and performance on their profile pages. Profile pages will highlight strategies and performance records archived on the blockchain, performance and risk grades, peer-to-peer reviews and endorsements. Investors will be able to filter traders based on these parameters, when searching for the next investment opportunity. Outstanding performance in the markets will enable traders to increase their ability to attract capital, negotiate favourable terms, and be invited to join consortiums.

Portfolios are defined by a set of terms that govern duration, minimal investment amounts, deposit and withdrawal procedures, trading strategy, risk metrics, and fee structure. The terms of the agreement between an investor and a trader or a consortium that bind an investor’s funding of a given portfolio are maintained on and are enforced by a smart contract. This ensures that traders cannot violate the advertised terms of their portfolios, and investors can only withdraw funds in accordance with agreed-upon terms.

As for the contract templates: the system will have predefined templates for 3 major cases:
1. Investment contract created by a trader or a consortium
2. Investment contract created by an investor or a fund
3. Portfolio management

Each consortium will have a founder or a head trader who sets the rules that govern its members’ activities and the consortium’s behavior as a whole. These rules are also stored on and enforced by a smart contract.

As John_stalk and carrieM have already replied to you there, traders' reputation will be based on their records of trading that blockchain makes transparent and visible. Plus all of the terms of the agreements between traders and investors will be stored on and enforced by smart contracts.

Thank you. Traders will be able to build their reputation by showcasing the skills and performance on their profile pages. Profile pages will highlight strategies and performance records archived on the blockchain, performance and risk grades, peer-to-peer reviews and endorsements.

That's why I gave my email so I could provide much more information, but I understand what you mean. Fixing the mistake. So we are building SociumTrade - a social trading and investment platform with integrated exchange that leverages the power of blockchain to bring traders and investors together in a secure and transparent environment.

The idea behind is that traders will be able to build credibility within the community because they will have ratings and past performance metrics. This means that investors who lack knowledge or expertise to invest will be given the right suite of instruments to be able to choose a trader to work with.
What is also interesting is that users will be able to trade not only cryptocurrencies but traditional assets as well (FOREX, stocks, bonds, commodities).

Our team of around 40 people are working on this project for a year now, we have offices in Malta, Lithuania and Belarus. However, we did not want to rush into any fundraising before we have basic features of our platform running - regarding the existing scams in the market, we want to show proof to the community of our dedicated work. We will need help with community management since October. I am just planning ahead and want to gather a great team to rely on.
