In 2009, Bitcoin was released as the first cryptocurrency and since then a lots of other cryptocurrencies have been released in the crypto world. According to the Coin Market Cap at August 2018, there are over 1800 other cryptocurrencies with a total market cap worth trillion dollars. The volume and complexity of crytpto world has created problems for crypto traders and investors to navigate through and manage their digital assets. It is my pleasure to mentaion that caspian technology has come to the aid of the aid of crypto lovers in managing the crypto funds.

What are the problems Caspian intend to solve?
Due to the complexity of the number of available cryptocurrencies, the current market poses some problems to the crypto investors. Some of the major problems are.
1. Unreliable trade execution
Cryptocurrency investors face a lot of issues when they want to trade in a professional capacity. One of the major issues is the unreliable trade execution due to the fragmentation of existing crypto exchanges. They try to manage their exchange accounts through different interfaces which tends to be difficult for both individual and institutional investors. This issue of fragmentation also leads to liquidity and causes price to slip.
2. Problem of Portfolio Management
Another problem faced by investors in the crypto world is portfolio management. Investors experience difficulties in tracking their real time and historical profits and loss (P&L).
3. Risk Management (Security challenge)
Crypto exchanges usually lack many of the security features offered by trading platforms in traditional markets. Some of those features include risk management and customer support. This however implies that the crypto fund of investors are prone to loss and theft.
4. Problem of Reporting and Compliance
Institutional investors usually experience difficulties with reporting and compliance. They need to keep extensive records for both internal and regulatory stakeholders. However, these outputs are not available on most crypto exchanges. Coupled with the exponential growth of the exchanges, the problem only increases.
How Caspian would solve the problems
Caspian is a full stack of financial tools that integrates with major exchanges in order to offer users a single place to interact with the entire crypto-space. Caspian would solve all the existing problems with the available products. These products are discussed below:

time. Using these features, users can maintain a complete book of records for a given trading entity and can view the data in real time or historically. Caspian

Other Features Available on Caspian
Some other interesting features of Caspian include
* Algorithms:
Caspian builds upon Tora’s algorithm framework and Kenetic’s trading expertise to provide institutional-grade algorithms from day one. Each order can be assigned to a particular algorithm, which can then route slices across multiple exchange venues using Caspian’s smart order routing logic. Caspian WhitePaper
* User-built strategies:
In addition to the predefined complex strategies offered in Caspian’s algorithm suites, end users will have the ability to define their own strategies for managing orders using a simple rule-based language. For example, a user could create an order that executes if the price of an asset increases by 10% or more in an hour. Caspian WhitePaper
* Alerts:
Caspian offers a built-in mechanism allowing clients to configure alerts, which can appear as pop-ups or be delivered as emails. Clients have the freedom to define the conditions under which such alerts are triggered, combining indicators, order parameters, position data, and market data. Caspian WhitePaper
* Reconciliations:
Caspian’s detailed, user-friendly record keeping functions make it easy to perform reconciliations. In traditional finance, the presence of multiple counter-parties, including brokers, custodians, and fund administrators, requires reconciliation among all parties to ensure that all transactions have been carried out as agreed.
Caspian Use Case
Mr. James has been a passionate banker for almost 2 decades. At the same time he is a crypto lover and has been into the crypto business for over 5 years. He knows much about the crypto world. He has persuaded his boss to invest in cryptocurrency either individually or as an institution. The boss always declined due to the administrative tasks it would bring upon him.
