I fully understand your arguments - that's why we have onboarded various top-notch strategic advisors. E.g. Luzius Meisser is the founder of the Bitcoin Association Switzerland and THE crypto-pioneer in Switzerland (since 2012 in the space), or Alessandro de Carli who is the technical Blockchain Advisor of Aeternity (top 25 cryptocurrency). We do not claim that we have all the skills in-house - where further insights are needed (legally, technically etc.) we however know the right people to assist here. Since we are processing not only public data but also confidential data (an ICO firm is required at the beginning to provide us various documents that are not public) we assure that based on the facts we do not rate scams well.

Thank you for the explanation. Yes, your board of advisors is impressive - but why isn't your project getting more traction in the community? As I'm also from Switzerland I think you should get a lot of support from the cryptovalley community?

We get a lot of traction - however the traction is really focussed on the institutionals and unfortunately not coming from the crowd. Overall, the (Swiss) crypto community is highly sceptical towards rating agencies and it will take time until they "accept" us. However, we really try to promote our idea in Switzerland (we had a couple of events in Zurich / Zug; https://www.eventbrite.com/e/swissrealcoin-a-rating-use-case-by-alethena-tickets-45719547397#; https://www.eventbrite.com/e/panel-discussion-methodological-rating-of-blockchain-assets-tickets-45915450348#).
