So how can Freeway possibly offer 43% APY on btc, eth and fiat?
The lion's share of revenues are generated via Quant Trading (sophisticated mathematical models and computer algorithms to identify and execute high volumes of trades)
This quant trading takes place primarily in the Forex markets with their 14 strong FX team and also in the crypto markets with a crypto crack-team of 4.
With the emphasis being on the huge FX markets where trillions are traded daily, co-CEO Graham Doggart considers an AUM figure of $200bn to potentially be where diminishing returns begin. So we have a long way to go before the huge returns start to reduce, no concerns there 😍
OK so.. are these returns normal? Let's consider one of the best known and top-performing funds, The Medallion Fund.
Over the last few decades it has returned around 70% annually.
So it's not unheard of to earn these yields in Traditional Finance.
How about regulations? With regulations being a confusing area for many, I'll just leave you with an in-depth explanation from Graham..
(Please also bear in mind since November Freeway has a world's first fully regulated crypto brokerage)
"A regulated entity for investment services falls under the same framework and regulatory oversight as banks and other financial institutions. While banks are supervised by the local Central Bank of each country, entities for investment services are supervised by the local..
Regulatory Authority. All fall under the EU framework for financial services, and ESMA is also a supervising authority. Given the position of the company as a regulated entity for 20+ years in a highly regulated environment and fully compliant with MIFID II (Greece, EU) rules..
and procedures are in place and regularly checked by regulators as per audit procedures. A number of people, both in-house certified executives and external professionals are responsible for the accuracy and strict adherence to rules and regulations including the compliance..
department, risk committee, internal auditors reporting directly to the Board, external auditors and of course the regulatory authorities, local and EU wide. As a regulated entity, every aspect of ops is heavily monitored and controls are in place, on top of regular reporting."
Freeway decided to focus the majority of early efforts on regulations and satisfying legal requirements. Additionally they don't lend out investor funds like most yielding cryptos such as @Nexo@celcius@Compound@AAve and should hence not be subject to investigations by the SEC.
(A quick sidenote whilst mentioning Freeway's main competitors. They just beat out these four much larger cryptos at the AIBC Asia event in the category of 'Staking Platform Of The Year'. This highlights the strides they have made recently 👀)
This regulatory strength from Freeway is what many believe sets them apart from the competition (along with the APY 😅)
It will ensure they will navigate regulatory hurdles far into the future whilst the SEC continues to stomp it's proverbial boot on any non-compliant projects.
With revenues and regulations covered, let's now move on to influencers and partners.
It's important to consider which social media influencers and partners are involved with Freeway, as they have their reputation and capital on the line.
So which influencers are promoting and invested in Freeway?
These guys have many thousands of followers and wouldn't want to risk their reputation on a dodgy investment. When you see how much some of these people have invested in the platform you'll realise the level of confidence they have in Freeway. (Coach K is pushing the $4m mark!)
There have also been a number of crypto projects recently choosing to partner and park funds with Freeway to bolster their treasuries namely @QED_Network@naramunz and most recently @hiveinvestments with their $500k investment.
Momentum is really starting to pick up with Freeway. Given their regulatory strength and multi-phase marketing plan coupled with the competition reducing yields or limiting non-accredited investors, this could be the perfect storm to catapult Freeway ahead of the competition 🤩
Strap in tight as it's gonna be a crazy ride 🤪
