I like the idea, but clicking on your site, I have no idea what's going on. You are putting up a lot of info, and none of it is relevant. Your formula, is quite frankly, shit. You just wanted to look clever.

In short, I don't think the site gives me what I want - the ability to check if the guy yelling "Buy now" has a proven track record.

Thank you, I struggle when I try to think of a way to best present the data and the formula can be greatly improved.

In your opinion, what info would be relevant to see in the main page for each coin?

I would start with the main coins and do them well. I think you are trying to bite off too much. Start of with BTC - it's in the media the most and is talked about the most. You can add Ethereum, EOS, Monero, etc later.

Then have a list of the "best" predictions of Bitcoin. I.e. Bob Lee (made up name) says "$25,000 by March 2019".

My main problem with your site is that I don't think you can rank these people with your formula. There is a lot that goes into it - their reputation (some guy vs crypto hedge fund manager), their number of roughly successful predictions, how many predictions they have made (success ratio), etc.

I know this is very generic, but hopefully it helps a little bit.
