Legendary, billionaire investor Carl Icahn is looking to get involved in the crypto-space in a big way.

Carl Icahn

He is one of the world's most successful investors. In fact, he has beaten Warren Buffet's performance over the past 20 years with a return of 1,980% compared to 545% from Berkshire Hathaway. He is most well-known for being an activist investor, meaning he would buy a significant stake in certain corporations to force change - a move he's done with numerous companies.

According to his latest appearance with Bloomberg, he's now looking to enter the crypto-space.

Inflation & Crypto

The basis of his investment outlook in crypto is mainly based on the inflation that seems to be on the horizon. According to him, inflation pushes people to look for Stores of Value (SoVs) which is the US Dollar is commonly used for. However, that's the case because it is the world's reserve currency and given the excessive printing of new USD, that may change.

He has not yet invested in crypto through his investment vehicle Icahn Enterprises but says is looking to get involved in a big way - by which he explains starts with a $1 Billion stake without disclosing the upper limit.

During the interview, Icahn also criticises the common questioning about the underlying value of cryptocurrencies by saying: "What the value of the dollar? The only value of the dollar is because you can use it to pay taxes.”

Bitcoin vs Ethereum

Icahn seems to have done his research on both bitcoin and ether, based off of which he commented:
Ethereum has two things - you can use it as a payment system, you can use it as a store of value [...] So Ethereum and Bitcoin are different. Bitcoin to me is just a store of value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
