Lately, I have been researching a lot in order to create the most advanced cryptocurrency & ICO valuation framework ever developed, and now, I am proud to announce that it is finally ready and available at the link below.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1UQNpC8ZLVFFWWHMiX_bN3i_ary9qDcL3kQOUKHFocyo/edit?usp=sharing
In this post, I am going to basically introduce what this framework is and how it works. You will be able to find further details on the spreadsheet itself.
Firstly, let’s begin by saying this framework follows a mathematical methodology to calculate the potential Return on Investment (ROI) of cryptocurrency and ICO assets. That’s the main goal.
The framework, which I humbly call ‘Ozargun Valuation Framework (OVF)’, checks how well existing cryptocurrencies & upcoming ICO tokens rank with regard to 10 main topics called ‘Product’, ‘Market’, ‘Project’, ‘Team’, ‘Community’, ‘Activity’, ‘Token’, ‘ICO’, ‘Legal’, and ‘Other’.
Next, there are another 86 sub-topics under these main topics which have various weights in overall score calculation, depending on the sub-topic’s significance in the potential success of the asset. Some examples to sub-topics are: ‘Product type’, ‘Business model’, ‘Audience size’, ‘Marketing campaigns’, ‘Token utility’, ‘Competitor benchmark’… Examining this many sub-topics actually makes the framework the most comprehensive due diligence (fundamental analysis) tool ever developed for cryptocurrencies.
To evaluate some example cryptocurrencies with the framework I created, I initially ran a manual screening process to the first 500 cryptocurrencies in terms of market cap, and picked the ones I saw potential in, adding them to this list. Some of these were later removed from the list as I found out they had significant weaknesses. There are currently 33 cryptocurrencies already evaluated on the spreadsheet.
I think all of the cryptocurrencies on this list with scores over 80 have great potential to be successful in the long-term, and to provide their investors’ great return on investment ratios. If a portfolio were to be created out of these assets, I would recommend allocation of funds correlated with the overall score of the assets.
According to the results of the applied framework, top 20 cryptocurrencies with the highest potential of ROI are:
1 — Mainframe
2 — Loom Network
3 — Ontology
4 — Aion Network
5 — IOTA
6 — IoTeX
7 — Bluzelle
8 — Zilliqa
9 — NEM
10 — ArcBlock
11 — Kyber Network
12 — Egretia
13 — Bitcoin
14 — Wanchain
16 — Steem
17 — Cardstack
18 — Stellar Development Foundation
19 — Ethereum
20 — Stratisplatform
This list is the result of a battle-tested (according to the current market condition) scientific methodology, is not an investment advice, and may prove wrong. Yet, this framework provides the most advanced valuation methodology we have today with regard to investing in cryptocurrencies.
I believe this framework would have become a very valuable private tool for venture capitalists and due diligence experts but I wished to make it open-source for the whole community to benefit. That’s why it’s public and you can copy, use, distribute it with the condition that you refer to the original file, and the creator. Oh, wait a minute, that’s me! :) Yup.
To use the framework yourself, you are going to need to download the file; choose a cryptocurrency to evaluate; rate every subtopic between 1–5 depending on how strong you think the project is on that matter; order all of the assets according to their final scores; then allocate your funds to each of the assets according to their scores; and that's it! More information can be found on the spreadsheet itself.
Happy valuations and moon-ROI investing!
