Yaroslav Ivanov, CVO of ALTA Blockchain Labs, Explains the Cryptocurrency Evaluation Process Behind Market Rankings

Yaroslav Ivanov, Chief Visionary Officer at ALTA Blockchain Labs, is a management consultant and strategist focused on crypto projects. He notes that many cryptocurrency platforms still overlook thorough project evaluations, leaving the community exposed to low-quality and potentially unsafe assets.

“Incorrect evaluations have long undermined trust in the market, misleading investors and traders,” Ivanov explains. “This framework benefits both users and companies, helping to simplify market entry and streamline key processes, including exchange listings and visibility on major aggregator platforms.”

Most users rely on the accuracy of data provided by exchanges and aggregators. The lack of professional evaluation continues to be one of the industry’s main weaknesses.

Founded in 2015, ALTA Blockchain Labs has advised blockchain companies on go-to-market strategies. Ivanov, a recognized speaker at global conferences such as TechWeek 2023 by a16z, The Future of Tech: OnTrend OnChain on Consensus 2024, leads strategic partnerships, fosters investor confidence, and drives initiatives advancing blockchain education and the tech-driven economy. He also provides expert insights to major crypto media outlets and conducts independent peer reviews of blockchain startups for investment purposes.

Under his leadership, these efforts led to the creation of the original Blockchain Project Evaluation Model (BPEM), a framework developed to address the industry’s need for transparency, data integrity, and rigorous qualitative analysis. Ivanov oversaw both the conceptual design and practical implementation of the model, ensuring it aligned with the evolving blockchain ecosystem. As a result, BPEM has been widely adopted by major aggregators and crypto exchanges, earning recognition for Ivanov’s leader role in shaping professional standards for project evaluation.

He continues to guide ALTA’s consulting initiatives, advising pre-launch teams on strategic positioning, cost-efficient exchange listings, and brand visibility, while helping projects meet professional standards and optimize their go-to-market strategies.

“It’s not just a model to improve the market’s reputation,” Ivanov says. “It’s a foundation for the blockchain infrastructure of the future, one that promotes clearer and more reliable rankings.”

The model has since evolved into a widely used tool for project assessment across aggregators. It evaluates multiple factors beyond market capitalization, including implementation feasibility, sustainability, data accuracy, community engagement, and verified audits and exchange data.

ALTA provides clients with transparent guidance while safeguarding its proprietary methodology to prevent manipulation of rankings.

As U.S. regulatory frameworks develop and hundreds of millions of new users enter the digital asset market, consistent and professional evaluation standards are increasingly critical for the industry’s long-term growth and stability.
