Crypto Commonwealth is a digital currency asset manager and publisher dedicated to maximizing the benefits of its communities. We have designed a variety of scenarios for our token application ecosystem. It brings fundamental changes to the value generation processes of two industries through impartial production relations. We have a professional team that specialize in traditional assets and digital currency portfolio management. Funds, publisher, alpha modeling and content mining will provide diverse application scenarios for our token.

Commonwealth Foundation

Our strategic partners are a number of professional crypto funds (collectively 'the Funds') in asset management and Commonwealth Foundation ('the Foundation' or 'the Publisher') in publishing. We would like to collaborate with all interested contributors in crypto strategy research / alpha mining, content mining and knowledge distribution, and share all our proceeds from asset allocation, article subscription and publishing with all authors, researchers, portfolio managers, token holders and investors.

The market neutral hedge fund 'Sphinx'

'Sphinx' is an alpha based market neutral fund based on either the US dollar or bitcoin, which features zero net exposure in all cryptos, i.e. the long and short holdings are equal in base currency value. No confidence over the crypto market is required whatsoever from any Sphinx investors if you invest on the USD basis, as the fund seizes market inefficiencies and endeavors to profit from a carefully rebalanced book with no a priori assumption on the nature of the market.

Sphinx Fund performance summary, simple return on the USD basis since 2015.


The venture fund 'Kratos'

'Kratos' is a venture fund that endeavors to invest in the primary crypto market. The fund intends to hold a good number of cryptos at their early stages, incubate and advise the projects as appropriate, and grow with them upon ICOs. We have plans to initiate more ICOs for some of our independent strategies, subsidiary funds or portfolio managers and may sponsor or collaborate with a crypto exchange for project launch. Kratos investors are guaranteed to enjoy the best investment quota and rate with high priority. The fund bears ultra-high risks and aims to access extraordinary returns.

Introducing the world's first crowd-owned and operated, peer-reviewed nonprofit scientific publisher

Knowledge is power. The discovery and distribution of new knowledge is an ultimate form of contribution to humanity, for its selfless nature and benevolent will to serve the people. Crypto Commonwealth is much more than an asset manager. We are in the meantime a scientific publisher, and compensate all endeavors that assist us with the crypto we issue in day-to-day publishing operations, including but not limited to article submission, reviewing, editing and translation. Our publication area offers high-quality and original quantitative analysis purchased from the authors upon peer review. We do our best to publish novel articles and strategies of original ideas.

The Timeline

We made great progress in building and expanding our ecosystem so far, and will continue to deliver good performance in both the Funds and the Publisher.

2017: preparations.

We developed and improved our quantitative investment philosophies in cryptos.

Q1-Q2 2018: publication and fund preparations.

We set up the first version of the Website, published our insights in quantitative crypto investing, assembled the team,
collected feedback and reached consensus in the Commonwealth tokenomics and roadmap.

Q3 2018: logo design.

We ordered multiple temporary designs and picked a final version after consulting the community.

Q2 2019: fund launch.

Both Sphinx and Kratos funds are available for investing. Live trading commenced.

Q4 2019:

Foundation launch. We register Commonwealth Foundation Ltd. in Singapore as the issuing entity for COMM.

Web development. Develop a scalable, user friendly backtesting platform for internal quantitative strategy research and submission. We have a dedicated developer team on it.

Develop an e-print hosting website. Also a voting system to lock COMMs and a data marketplace. These may extend well into 2020 or beyond.

Private sale. We have gathered and will consolidate a number of investment commitments for the private sale(s).

Social media campaigns. We initiate social media campaigns and build a community.

2020 onward: alpha mining.

When the backtesting platform is online, we will invite internal quantitative researchers to participate and seek alphas, and in the future possibly initiate several nationwide competitions for best alpha modeling. We will offer exceptional researchers contractual positions, and actively engage all interested and qualified parties in alpha exploration, portfolio construction and fund management. All endeavors will be recognized, and promotions will be offered for exceptional quants.

Q2-Q3 2020: the e-print website starts operating.

We advertise and invite scholars to post preprints on our site. After some time and as we accumulate traffic and active users, we commence peer-reviewed journal operation.

The Commonwealth Tokenomics

The token we issue, 'Commonwealth' (or 'COMM' for short) is the absolute, irreplaceable and undisputed right to participate in our subscription, circulation and investment ecosystem, and we expect this right to be widely held and executed as we progress into higher stages of our roadmap.The total supply of Commonwealth is 1 billion, 20% is reserved for the team and to be released linearly or slower over the course of at least 5 years. 30% is owned by the foundation pool and reserved for ecosystem operations, alpha and content mining in particular. 50% is available for sales in tiers. The performance of the funds, the traffic or active users of our websites and the quality of our publications are the key drivers to the growth of the Ecosystem. We will offer prospective investors opportunities to acquire COMMs in full compliance with local laws, policies and regulations.

The token distribution

COMM is an ethereum based token supported by all ERC20 compatible wallets, including but not limited to MyEtherWallet, MetaMask, imToken, TREZOR, Ledger, Mist, etc. It is a digital asset fit for store and transfer of value, and inherits multiple advantages from an ethereum based infrastructure. As one of the ERC20 family members, COMM carries good liquidity and can be easily interchanged with any other ERC20 tokens, as they use a common set of protocols and technical guidelines. It is secure and compliant to all local laws and regulations wherever used.

[Spaceshuttle987]

What type of publications do you expect writers and analyst to contribute and how much would you pay?

[Uikjuysd]

Do you have any previous experience managing funds non crypto-related?

[Oxherder]

What type of publications do you expect writers and analyst to contribute and how much would you pay?

We will focus on three types of publications: (1) The ’Beta for Pros’ column publishes heavyweight research papers intended for professionals with advanced quantitative backgrounds. (2) The ’Beta for Fun’ column publishes quantitative and fun crypto analysis, tokenomics and philosophies. (3) The ’Crypto Insights’ column publishes non-quantitative articles in the blockchain domain that serve as educational resource and crypto knowledge base.

Compensation starts at 4000, 2500, 1500 COMMs a piece for ’Beta for Pros’, ’Beta for Fun’ and ’Crypto Insights’ columns, respectively. But there is numerous bonus a writer can get depending on the quality of this publications. You can find detailed information about the payment system in our whitepaper.

Since you are planning to be a journal at the level of Nature, with what regularity will users have to contribute to your publication and how would you secure the continuity of high quality publications? I am just saying because Nature is really on another level.

We are well connected and discussed the subject with a large number of professors and scholars in renowned universities including but not limited to MIT, Harvard, Boston, Stony Brook University, University of Chicago and Michigan at Ann Arbor.It is our solemn duty to make every effort and ensure all the authors and contributors get fair compensations from their work statistically.

[Oxherder]

Do you have any previous experience managing funds non crypto-related?

We do have a strong background in global stock markets, have amassed a good number of lowly correlated equity strategies at our disposal and will seek to tokenize them when the time is right. The ecosystem will eventually embrace strategies of all financial

[XEFUZ]

Where will the funds to pay your contributors come from? Just from the gains generated by the investment funds or do you have other plans?

[Vienure]

What about introducing a tipping bot to reward redditors who contribute good content on your reddit account or in any other social media platform?

When it comes to the three strategies you are planning to use for investment funds. I am curious about what you “considerer Medium to high return and risk, low to medium IR, high capacity”. Among these optionsare stocks, real state, and ICOs... I think ICOs stand like a category of its own and are much riskier. After the 2017 fever it has been proved that many ICOs were scams or best case scenario, just bad companies. As investors take time to digest it, the tokens from some of these ICOs have a nonexistent value. In my opinion an ICO is a very risky form of investment and I was wondering what strategies will you follow to protect your investors.

[fukajiyus.sa]

Wouldn’t it be better to use STOs which are less risky than ICOs as investment strategies. A lot of ICO’s token are currently totally worthless. People burned their finger in 2018 and 2019 with ICOs.

[Butern Butler]

What plans or strategies do you have to attract the best researchers to your journal. Given the current price of your tokens, what you are offering for top research publications may not seem like a lot.

It is our vision that all contributors will benefit from the tokens they hold as our ecosystem grows.

Definitely is something worth of consideration and we will keep an eye on that since the market seems to be moving in that direction.

Stonybrook will share a decent cut of our management or incentive fee (up to 50%) with excellent authors and collaborators. We believe we will create very strong, knowledgeable community of contributors by our generous sharing of our profits.
