In each CoinReview I do, I track performance of coins I've covered in the past - both good and bad performance:
#01: Change ($CAG) up 8% to $64M cap in 1 day since post
TO DATE: If you'd invested $100 in each at time of posting, you'd have turned $100 into $108.

Who is building it?
- Yazin Alirhayim, CEO:
VP at Amazon’s “Payfort Start” division. He previously founded White Payments, a “Stripe
for the Middle East”. White was acquired by Payfort (and later by Amazon) just 12 months after it launched.

Hit me with some technicals.
- Currently in ascending phase, near ATH with increasing volume:

Green Flags:
- People HATE PayPal. Enough said.
- Yazin has some solid experience. Is he enough to run the whole show? No - but he has done good work in fintech before, and I'm sure he will continue to - whether on this project or the next.
Red Flags:
- Does UTrust already have a lock on this application? There is certainly room for emerging competitors to rise, as we've seen from ERCs like $REQ.
- Small team with slow GitHub contributions. In my experience watching ICOs, this is a bad sign for progress and eventual successful product, but it doesn't mean the price won't go up in the short term.
Where can I trade it?
$CRED trades on EtherDelta.
