3-step
scoring system for blockchain startups
scoring system for blockchain startups
which allows you to find successful projects at an early stage with an accuracy of 9 out of 10
What is scoring?
Advanced scoring models evaluate the project by dozens of indicators, assigning points to the project depending on the results. The higher the score of the project, the higher the priority for the investor to consider the project.
Scoring is an analyticаl tool for blockchain projects. Its main goal - sift out and prioritize projects that come to the investor’s attention.
How do we analyze projects?
The Afford.Capital model comprises
3 key steps in project analysis. These 3 key steps are divided into dozens of iterations and actions, but for a general understanding, we will describe the work algorithm in its larger stages.
3 key steps in project analysis. These 3 key steps are divided into dozens of iterations and actions, but for a general understanding, we will describe the work algorithm in its larger stages.
The main task for the investor
At this stage is to find projects that they will then analyze. From our experience of talking with investors of different levels, we found out that finding worthy projects is one of the key problems. The challenge is that in the early stages only a narrow circle of those close to potentially successful projects can enter them.
Step 1. Project search
How Afford Capital finds projects for selection
Paid and free. We constantly update the fund's tools, developing and testing all new tools. As a result, we always have up-to-date databases in service which are expanded with new projects.
Databases
Key employees and shareholders of the fund constantly stay in touch with other crypto-world members, making it possible to receive important tips and secrets first-hand. We brief all the projects we hear about and submit the results of the briefing straight to the scoring algorithm.
Networking
Direct inflow of projects to the fund. As the media coverage of the fund grows, projects themselves find us and submit applications for evaluation. Over time, the inflow of such organic applications only increases. This allows the fund investors to receive the best offers and enter the most promising projects even before they go public.

After the projects are selected, the analysis begins.
First of all, a general overview is made: what the project is about, what value it brings to today's reality, how relevant it is. Already at this stage we can see the potential. Next, we analyze the figures.
Step 2. Key indicators
The scoring model has 220+ evaluation indicators.
They are divided into key groups:
