Alan, MatrixETF CTO
I graduated from Ontario Institute of Technology, used to be Technical Director of multiple blockchain projects.
As time goes on we realized that the crypto market is getting more and more mature, there is a huge chance for DeFi ETF. In this case, we have built MatrixETF team with our technical and investment experience at the beginning of 2021, to start over the crypto DeFi ETF field
Question from the CryptoRank team
#1. Can you tell us about MatrixETF? What problems do you solve, both in the space and for the community?
Alan: – MatrixETF is a cross-chain enabled and decentralized ETF platform, our goal is to achieve decentralized and stable wealth growth. MatrixETF will provide users with various and automated ETF portfolios to lower the threshold of crypto investment and realize financial implementation. Along with the hotness of the DeFi market, more and more investors are focusing on the crypto market. Although for the beginner the DeFi market is not friendly enough, investors not only need to choose potential and valuable projects from the DeFi market but also need to get through complicated workflows such as wallet exchange, verifying smart contracts, high Gas fees, etc. Index investment doesn’t need investors understanding the specific asset, but requires them to have a general understanding of the whole market. Everyone can invest their assets on the ETF index to gain profit from various portfolios, which will be the best investment way of “ invested then forgot it”, meanwhile it’s MatrixETF vision as well.
#2. Could you shortly describe the milestones MatrixETF has achieved, and about your upcoming plans?
Alan: –There are 4 phases on MatrixETF product development:
- Phase1:Platform Self-created Funds
- Phase2:Support for Adding Derivatives
- Phase3:DAO Community Governance
- Phase4:MatrixETF Components
Nowadays MatrixETF is in the first phase, in the future, we will promote more conceptual ETFs to track high-quality Tokens in the DeFi industry. In phases 3 to 4, we will gradually hand the governance right to our community, at the same time, MatrixETF will provide SDK toolkits to professional fund managers & institutions and influences, in order to create their own ETF.
Recently MatrixETF has deployed smart contracts on both Solana and Ethereum, and we have successfully done our first phase of testnet. We planed to officially launch more than 2 ETF products before the end of September, which include 1 Ethereum based ETF and 1 Solana based ETF. In the future, we will deploy products on several public chains such as BSC, Polygon, Near in order to meet more users’ investment demands.
