KOIN, An Exchange Traded Fund That Tracks Blockchain Innovations Now Holds Approximately Over $10 Million in Assets Under Mangement

When it was launched approximately 11 months ago, The Innovation Shares NextGen Protocol ETF, otherwise known as KOIN, it quickly became a product worthy of investors attention. It was on January 30th 2018, the ETF product has rapidly gained the attention of a wide variety of investors who have collectively driven the assets under the management of the ETF to roughly $10 million as of right now.

So what does this mean for those investors that bought into the ETF? It's managed to return over 7.44 percent to investors since its launch.

What makes Koin an impressive product is that it manages to track the Innovation Labs Blockchain Innovators Index, which has since provided more than 9.9 percent returns to investors over the past three months, and 7.44 percent returns from when it was developed and applied, and September 30th 2018.

Initially, the index was created using a natural language processing algorithm which allows for a global list of stocks to be screened which they believe will hold an economic interest (both currently and in the future) in the world of blockchain technology.

Analytical research in the more traditional application may not find all the companies that are interested in blockchain technology. By contrast, NLP and textual analysis, doubled up with the application of artificial intelligence will help to find what would have otherwise been overlooked by other systems.

A number of notes were made on by the managing director of Innovation Shares, Matt Markiewicz, regarding the level of the traction gained since the launch of KOIN.

“This encouraging momentum can be seen across many industries including technology, financial services, energy, and transportation.”

At this moment in time, KOIN boasts a total of $10 million under its belt. And with that amount comes a great deal of diversity to its portfolio; spanning a range of equities in fifteen countries and twelve industries. The index that it follows has four different categories which investors can place stocks in, depending on their interaction and ongoing relationship with blockchain technology.
