London, United Kingdom – June 29, 2018 /NewsNetwork/ —

Mosaic Research Ltd, a leading crypto asset data platform, has donated a grant to University of Cambridge Department of Computer Science and Technology. The grant is earmarked for technical research on blockchain and cryptocurrency using on-chain and social media data.

The collaboration between Mosaic and the University of Cambridge will provide valuable research and transparency for cryptoassets. In the wake of recent declines in the cryptocurrency market, such as unreliable information, scams, insufficient and biased data, additional confidence from these two trusted brands will bode well for everyone.

“Building an information database and portal is not enough in today’s environment,” Stated Alex Bradford, Mosaic principal. “Any organization that is in this for the long-term understands not only the potential for growth but for establishing trust. By collaborating with the University of Cambridge, we accomplish that and a whole lot more.”

Mosaic’s research funding grant is the first step towards building a long-term collaboration with the University of Cambridge.

The research grant will help detect inorganic traffic on social media platforms, astroturfing campaigns on web forums, and bot-run web scams which often lead to the “pump and dump” schemes which inflate the price of volatile cryptocurrencies through the spreading of false information.

“We would like to explore inorganic traffic on social media platforms, particularly astroturfing campaigns,” stated Mosaic’s Zafar Gilani. “The more we can provide vetted knowledge to web forums, the less people will be duped by bot-run social scams.”

The cryptocurrency market desperately needs more trusted research and information, as today’s digital asset investors continue to make decisions based on hype rather than on hard facts and rigorous analysis. Mosaic’s mission and this grant are dedicated to bringing transparency and quality control to cryptocurrency research and analysis.

Mosaic’s trusted decentralized cryptocurrency data platform provides a place for reliable research, market information, and community discussion. The platform incentivizes researchers for high-quality, unbiased content and rejects contributors posting for personal gain. Mosaic contributors publish articles, market updates and discussions on digital assets and users read and rate the content and contributors. Mosaic rewards quantity and quality of contributions to the network through their token system.
