"The data has become the first asset of a company and will by extension become the first asset of an individual." During its peak hype, a lot of investments were made hoping for quick returns. In such highly emotional states, the markets can behave erratically. At Peculium, we consider that there is an immense need for transparency, analysis, and prediction to provide necessary protection the investments. The blockchain has proved its solidity, demonstrated its transparency and legitimized its presence. The projects that have emerged in this area have mainly focused on improving and extending the blockchain service.

We begin with Mr Rashid Oukhai, the Founder and CEO of Peculium. A student of computer sciences, Rashid began his journey some 20 odd years back when Big Data was not formally called so. His interest in data sciences ripened when he started working with a well known Telecommunications provider in France. His first task on his first day was to make sense of a massive database! For most of us, that would have been a daunting task. However, there are few among us that love to work with data.

In the coming months, Peculium will offer the market an intelligent analysis tool to gather quantitative and qualitative data available on cryptocurrencies, whether they are already established (bitcoin, ether, etc.) or new and upcoming (arrival on the market by ICOs bias). The emergence of Blockchain technology, via the Bitcoin protocol, in 2008 gave birth to a new ecosystem of a new asset class: cryptocurrencies. It raised many legal, economic or financial questions. The markets are completely unregulated, volatile, and function without much transparency. This high volatility leads to a capital risk.

On the 1st of January 2017 and in the realm of data, Peculium was established under its parent company "Upsilon Data". In March 2018 and after a successful ICO, we have launched our first product called "AIEVE" that stands for Artificial Intelligence, Ethics, Value, and Equilibrium. The Alpha version of BeliEve was launched in September 2018. By late February, the Beta version BeliEve (the fully automated real-time trading version based on AIEVE-forecasts) has completed successful 7500 trades with over 99% fill and completion rate in 6 weeks. BeliEve was able to generate approximately 3% profits in the first month.

Peculium ICO is the first ever cryptocurrency savings platform that merges cryptocurrency markets with the traditional savings economy. Peculium manages this via artificial intelligence, automated machine learning, smart contracts, and big data analytics over the Ethereum blockchain.

To answer this question, you need first of all few clues about my background. I am Rachid Oukhai, founder of Upsilon, Peculium (Data). I started working in computer science one Monday morning at 8 a.m. I was so excited about the idea of getting into the professional world of IT, especially at a telecommunication services provider whose advertisements flooded the media landscape at the time. Young and full of enthusiasm, I thought naively that I was going to take part in big decisions, embark on adventures.

I think that Invacio is a very interesting and much overlooked project.

Peculium is the revolutionary savings platform that seamlessly merges traditional savings economy with the cryptocurrency markets via the power of Automated Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence (AML-AI), Big data analytics, and the Smart-contracts over the Ethereum Blockchain. Peculium is the bridge between the traditional economy and the new era of crypto-economy, reducing barriers, decreasing volatility, increasing confidence, and creating a mutually beneficial endeavor. Peculium is the door designed to achieve the best risk-benefit ratio for the crypto-investments whether you are an individual or an institution.

Peculium has the ambition of becoming the first savings platform for individuals, brokers, and corporates targeting the blockchain, as well as the traditional savings market, using the power of Automated Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence and the Blockchain technology (Ethereum). Since it's kickoff, the project team grew from 5 experts to more than 40 in a short span of one year. We have an appetite for growth, so that is where you come in. We are hiring a professional writer to contribute towards articles, announcements, and other forms of communication in future. To decide the best fit for us, we are going to do this in an interesting manner – a contest!
