FAQ

Questions from investors

Everything VCs, family offices and angels ask before using the hub.

How to value a crypto startup?
+
Use 4 valuation methods: 1) DCF based on protocol revenue (works for revenue-generating DeFi, SaaS), 2) Comparable multiples — P/S for SaaS, P/TVL for DeFi, P/Users for social apps, 3) Token-based FDV analysis (discounted for vesting pressure), 4) Venture method: exit probability × expected value. Our Valuation Calculator automates all 4 and gives a weighted fair value range with confidence score.
What is token vesting and why it matters?
+
Token vesting is the schedule of unlocking tokens for team, investors and ecosystem. High unlock pressure = sell pressure on the token. Key metrics: cliff period (usually 6-12 months), linear vs step vesting, total supply unlocking in next 30/60/90 days. FDV/MC ratio > 5x usually means massive future dilution. Our Vesting Analyzer visualizes unlock pressure and grades projects A-F.
How to safely buy a crypto project?
+
Use crypto escrow with 2/3 multisig. Process: 1) Due Diligence via OSINT check (100+ databases: Crystal, Chainalysis KYT, TRM Labs, OFAC), 2) Smart contract audit (CertiK/Trail of Bits reports + honeypot detection), 3) Sign acquisition agreement, 4) Buyer deposits to escrow, 5) Seller transfers assets (GitHub repos, domains, wallets, socials, team keys), 6) 14-30 day hold period for verification, 7) Funds release. Protects both parties from rug pulls and chargebacks.
What crypto projects are being acquired in 2026?
+
Top acquisition targets: DeFi protocols ($5M-$50M, valued by TVL and revenue multiples), Telegram channels with real audience ($50K-$500K), SaaS products with crypto integration ($200K-$5M), NFT collections with community ($1M-$20M), Web3 infrastructure ($10M-$100M), L2 networks and bridges ($50M+), RWA tokenization platforms ($10M-$100M), Web3 games with DAU ($500K-$10M).
What's included in crypto due diligence?
+
7-layer DD process: 1) Team verification (founders, previous exits, on-chain history), 2) Smart contract audit (security, admin keys, upgradeability), 3) Tokenomics analysis (vesting, supply, treasury), 4) Community traction (real users vs bots via TG-Stat, Social Blade), 5) Legal structure (BVI/Cayman/Swiss entity, token classification), 6) Competitive landscape (moat, TAM), 7) Financial health (burn rate, runway, revenue quality).
How to check a Telegram channel before buying?
+
TG-Stat analysis: Engagement Rate (healthy 10-30%, below 5% = bots), retention (70%+ is good), traffic sources (organic vs paid), post reach vs subscriber ratio (30-60%). Check for suspicious spikes, one-word comments, fake reactions. Our Due Diligence tool runs full TG-Stat audit + OSINT check on owner + 24-hour hold period after acquisition to verify audience retention.
What is 2/3 multisig escrow?
+
Multi-signature wallet requiring 2 out of 3 signatures to release funds: buyer + seller + guarantor. Eliminates unilateral withdrawal risk. Neither party can access funds alone. If dispute arises, independent arbitrator (the third key) reviews evidence and executes decision via smart contract. Used for all acquisitions over $10K. For deals over $1M — MPC cold storage with distributed key shards.
How to value an NFT collection?
+
4 NFT valuation methods: 1) Floor price × supply (basic, misses IP value), 2) Comparable sales (recent acquisitions of similar collections), 3) Revenue-based: royalties + licensing + merch revenue × multiple, 4) Community value: Discord/Telegram members, Twitter followers, holder distribution. Blue-chip collections trade at 3-8x annual revenue. Pudgy Penguins model: IP + merch + licensing = 10x+ revenue multiple.
Что такое token vesting и почему это важно?
+
Token vesting — это график разблокировки токенов для команды, инвесторов и экосистемы. Высокое давление разблокировки = давление продаж на токен. Ключевые метрики: cliff-период (обычно 6-12 месяцев), линейный или ступенчатый вестинг, общий объем токенов, разблокируемых в следующие 30/60/90 дней. Соотношение FDV/MC > 5x обычно означает сильное будущее разводнение. Наш Vesting Analyzer визуализирует давление и выставляет оценки A-F.
Как оценить крипто стартап?
+
4 метода оценки: 1) DCF на основе выручки протокола (для DeFi, SaaS), 2) Сравнительные мультипликаторы — P/S для SaaS, P/TVL для DeFi, P/Users для соц. приложений, 3) Токен-анализ FDV (с дисконтом за давление вестинга), 4) Венчурный метод: вероятность экзита × ожидаемая стоимость. Наш Valuation Calculator автоматизирует все 4 метода и дает взвешенный диапазон справедливой стоимости с оценкой уверенности.
Как безопасно купить крипто-проект?
+
Используйте крипто-эскроу с мультиподписью 2/3. Процесс: 1) Due Diligence через OSINT-проверку (100+ баз: Crystal, Chainalysis KYT, TRM Labs, OFAC), 2) Аудит смарт-контрактов (отчеты CertiK + honeypot-детект), 3) Подписание договора купли-продажи, 4) Покупатель вносит средства на эскроу, 5) Продавец передает активы (GitHub, домены, кошельки, соц. сети), 6) 14-30 дней холд-период для верификации, 7) Релиз средств. Защищает обе стороны от rug pull и чарджбэков.
Сколько стоит эскроу-сервис?
+
Комиссия Гарант.СУ: 2.5% для сделок до $100K, 2% от $100K до $500K, 1.5% от $500K до $5M, индивидуальные условия от $5M. Комиссия делится между сторонами по договоренности. Для VIP OTC (от $1M) — персональный менеджер, расширенный AML-аудит, MPC холодное хранение, юридическое сопровождение. Все инструменты Hub (Due Diligence, Valuation, Vesting) — полностью бесплатны.
