How much is the dividend in percentage?
this is a dividends paying project, that means US citizens unless you are an accredited investors will not be able to invest into it plus the Chinese citizen that has been ban also. Please correct me if I'm wrong

At the beginning the SHP won't entitle to receive any dividends and therefore it will be a pure utility token. When the fund recevies the green light from the diverse regulators where Sharpe Capital is applying for a license, SCD tokens will be emitted to all SHP holders and dividend payment will start. Therefore, there are no territorial restrictions for investors.
So what you are saying is that they will not start with dividends payment but as time goes on they will start paying. Tpo me as long as  dividends payment is part of their plan, it is still a dividends paying project.

It WILL BE a dividend paying project when the fund gets the appropriate license from the regulating bodies. Currently it's not and therefore it's open to residents from anywhere in the world.

This project seems solid... although I think I've already seen several similar ones

Yeah, probably. You can't really reinvent the wheel anymore. With so many projects coming in daily

I've read the whitepaper in it's entirety and am a big fan of the team. From what I've seen out there, nothing exists like this project. Here's why...

If you are comparing Sharpe Capital to projects like Numeraire (which there have been many comparisons); Sharpe is very different to Numerai for 2 reasons. Firstly, Sharpe will run their own proprietary quantitative models on a cloud-hosted architecture. Numerai is "crowdsourcing" models in an attempt to reduce overfitting, this probably wont work - what if all of the models are really overfitted?

Secondly, Sharpe offers an additional way to earn ETH, by providing forward-looking asset sentiment. Did you see the recent blog post with the Sharpe mobile app designs? By linking the sentiment to proof-of-stake and reputation, they are basically able to ensure they are sourcing the highest possible sentiment. Checkout section 6 of the whitepaper for more detail on this.

The sentiment gives Sharpe other revenue streams, such as selling data feeds to hedge funds, something I'm not aware Numeraire are doing. Quantitative modelling alone is not good enough to predict future stock prices, without a way to accurately measure investor sentiment. Taking into account investor sentiment essentially solves the problem.

A few other noteworthy competitors to mention: (1) Santiment; (2) Xinfin. In regards to Santiment, some of their revenue streams are comparable to Sharpe's. Sharpe seeks to capture investor response to consumed media at a cognitive-behavioural level, as opposed to merely infer 'posifive' and 'negative' sentiment from that media. In reference to Xinfin, they are offering an enterprise grade private Blockchains. Sharpe plans to offer this too, only it's being built on top of the Trustless Ledger System (one of the golden nuggets in this project), to offer blockchain based internal auditing/transactional solutions.

Also, make sure to check out a recent article they posted: https://medium.com/@sharpecapital/sharpe-capitals-place-in-the-fintech-space-b220770a04fd

Can you break contextual frame analysis down into laymen's terms please? How is your PoC coming along for this? How is contextual frame analysis important to the long term sustained success of the investment platform?

Hey, thanks for your question. So, contextual frame analysis (CFA), is one of the more hypothetical elements of the platform. It is not necessary for its operation, but we believe it would serve to further reduce risk and increase returns by improving accuracy as compared to the more standard sentiment analysis approaches - of which there are many.

In the simplest terms, CFA is an attempt to capture how language use (contextual frames) drives decision making. The seminal example given is the 'Virus vs Beast' study by Thibodeau and Boroditsky (2011), in which an identical article about a crime wave - except a one word difference - is shown to two groups of people. One article used the word 'beast' and the other used 'virus'. The consensus of the group that saw 'beast' was that punitive action should be taken against the criminals, however, the group that saw 'virus' leaned strongly toward rehabilitation. When the people in these groups were asked to justify their decision, nobody mentioned the virus/beast word usage, and quoted data/statistics from the article.  (See pp. 28-29 in our white paper)

That is, people came to opposing decisions while justifying them with the same data, driven by the contextual frame in which they saw the data. We are working with Mieke, a linguistic & expert in frame analysis, to develop a strategy that enables us to determine whether these 'contextual frames' are more likely to drive an investor toward 'bullish' or 'long' vs 'bearish' or 'short' when consuming news media and other data sources from which they make their investment decision. Underpinning this theory is the concept that decision making is, to a significant extent, emotional - even when investors insist their actions are data driven, they are ultimately slaves to the cognitive decision making processes we all evolved with.

At the moment we are developing a manual CFA process based on 'traditional' linguistic frame analysis as a proof-of-concept on a relatively small number of news articles, as this is a novel idea in both investment and linguistics. Once the relationship between frames and responses is established in a few key examples, we will quickly scale it to operate on a large scale using natural language processing techniques within artificial intelligence and machine learning, such that our algorithms can learn to optimally identify contextual frames based on historical data. We aim to have this operational along with the rest of the platform - however, this is a scientific endeavour, and as such may be subject to further development before we release it in the wild.

It is probably the most exciting of the linguistic analysis approaches we're taking, but it is not mission critical to operation of the fund - it will simply serve to enhance it.

Let me know if you have any more questions. If you're interested in the linguistics side of things, Mieke hangs out in the Telegram group.

Nice answer and very easy to understand, would be rather read explaination in this thread than the long 60 pages wp. Lol
