While I did not proceed with them and invest, from a business stand point, they do not instill the confidence required to do so. I spoke with Axel's brother, Adam, over zoom. He was very young, lacked profesionalism, was not well versed in business, lacked overall capability to answer complex questions, was at times combative, and lacked basic understanding of contract law. Their company is registered in Wyoming, and if you look up their address, it takes you to an empty parking lot. They reside in Miami 6 months and in Dubai 6 months. The concept itself is a good concept, but the cost is higher than industry normal ($5k-7.5k for a $1M challenge): $15k for a $1M prop firm capital (supposedly they have an agreement to get the $ from the prop firm, w/o taking on an actual challenge, because of their trading bot's performance) at an 80/20 profit split...all hands off, allegedly, to the investor. The final part was their contract/agreement. It litearlly looks like it was downloaded from a Google search, edited to fit their business, and possessed some of the most vague language I've seen for the "trading" industry. In short, I requested some clarification and specifics added to the contract, which were sent to Adam, via email, and texted him to notify of said email, which was never opened (I mail track all my emails). They just went silent. I actually appreciate Adam for being himself, as he probably saved me from a bad experience. All in all my experience with them did not instill the confidence needed to invest the $15k with them, even though it's not a substantial amount of money for me. There are plenty of companies out there that will do a variation of this service with verifiable track records, by third parties, great trustpilot ratings, and positive comments in Blogs, such as Reddit, so don't be in a hurry to jump into bed with anyone too quickly....it could cost you money and trust.
They could very well be legit, but defintely need to work on the front end of their business. Smart money likes to give opportunities to emerging industries/businesses, but they have to have their ducks in a row. IMHO, they need to work on this.
Best of luck to everyone and I hope this helped someone.
