Ep 33 - Seoul Korea Beyond Blocks with Jack Tan of Kronos, a platform bringing elite quantitative trading to the average crypto investor

In this episode, we’re at the Beyond Blocks in Seoul (the
"capital city"), Korea. Chris Groshong, CEO of CoinStructive,
caught up with Jack Tan of Kronos Token, a platform aimed at
allowed token holders to access to elite trading strategies
through a built-in trading desk.


Kronos helps to bridge the gap between retail untrained investors
and the elite 1% who have unfair access to the majority of global
wealth, where they just get richer. Kronos disagrees with this
premise.


To solve this problem, Kronos sources and nurtures elite
investing and trading talent which opens up the skillsets and
strategies of these teams to KRON holders.


In addition, Kronos leverages a variety of time-tested
investment methodologies to battle unstable and volatile markets
and pass the value to the users. This allows investors to benefit
from enterprise trading strategies which help
stabilize portfolios despite market conditions.


As stated on the Kronos website:


We are changing the rules once and for all. All KRON holders will
have a chance to access the best strategies in quantitative
trading and other investments within crypto. The mission of the
KRONOS project is to:


Attract, foster and retain the best trading talent globally

Remove access barriers to the top investments

Maximize resilience of the ecosystem through the intelligence
of decentralized governance



Our strategies carry a range of risk and return profiles, but are
generally uncorrelated from the market. This means they can
profit even when asset prices are falling. We will begin with
high-frequency market making and proprietary trading, but will
quickly add teams to trade "smart index", statistical arbitrage,
and discretionary small-cap strategies.
