Interested, but after watching the Youtube clip of the guy on Coin Interview... I am quite concerned about this.  Doesn't appear knowledgable, but worse than that, he seems quite shifty.  Can't answer basic questions about his service which is now, I suppose technically, valuated at about $2Mil.  Something's wrong here.

EDIT:  Seriously - check out this interview and then tell me that you're comfortable sending any money or crypto to this guy.  He's a co-founder.

EDIT 2: I am getting a bad vibe from these guys, all around.  Good luck investors.  I am out.

EDIT 3: In that interview, I noticed that Dimitri Chupryna really struggled answering any technical questions.  I'll point out that his title, according to the Whitepaper, and the fund's website is as follows: Co-founder, Technology & Analytics.  

It doesn't seem like Evan is convinced at all in that interview, he seems extremely skeptical. Not to mention he has to correct Dimitri multiple times during the interview, correct him on things you would hope he is an expert on considering his position in TaaS and the supposed expertise you would hope would go along with such a position. Evan appears to know more than he does... Dimitri didn't even know what a fiduciary was and people are okay with trusting him with millions? Lol.

Also a lot of "maybe's", "I think so's", "should be's", "in the future's", etc coming from Dimitri.

And yeah, his body language is shifty as fuck.

Yeah, this just reeks.  I hope nobody gets screwed out of their hard-earned funds.  I've been involved in enough Security-scams to be have a pretty good spidey-sense and it is definitely going off here.

I don't really think you can nail him with that performance, some people are very nervous on camera especially if you are doing it for the first time
He doesn't look nervous per se but okay fair, that still wouldn't explain why he doesn't answer the questions correctly/doesn't know certain things he should know. Evan is clearly not impressed with his answers or knowledge of the subjects in that interview. One would hope it would come off as Evan interviewing somebody with an expertise in what they are doing or at least somebody more knowledgeable than himself but it comes off as the opposite. Isn't Dimitri supposed to be their lead/expert of technology and analytics?

And I really wish somebody would respond to my post about what seem to be inconsistencies in their proclaimed experience on their website and what they actually have done according to their work history on their linkedins. I just feel like these guys are trying to sell themselves a little more than they can reasonably attest to, which I guess makes sense considering they are trying to raise 101 million USD which would be the largest ICO in history. Call me crazy but if you want to hold the largest ICO in history I feel like there should be some pretty damn good/distinguished/recognized experts leading the project.
Finally made an account just to respond Smiley
I thought it was a terrible interview. It seemed Evan didn't read the whitepaper or even know what a hedge fund does. 40 mins and all he asked about was cryptoaudit and blockchain questions, which Dimitri said several times that hes not a developer, and the applications of blockchain to a CEF are rather limited. Ask how they are gonna make money. Ask about trading strategy; is the focus on fundamentals or technical analysis; crypto markets are always open, will they be trading around the clock; 15% of ico is going into development, shouldn't ico participants share in the profit of Kepler?

These are some of my questions, and none were answered. Also I'm unbiased as I live in the US and cannot partake Sad
