Three crypto startups receive million-dollar checks

Chapter One recently closed a $40 million early-stage fund focused on investments in web3. However, it appears that this was just the beginning of the adventure, as the company has decided to launch a web3 incubator called Studios. With Studios, Chapter One will offer three teams $1 million for a 15% stake in their companies and work with them for six months to reach product-market fit.

In addition to capital, Studios will provide the teams with weekly product and design sessions, access to various advisors from across the web3 ecosystem, and the ability to find enough talent to scale their startups, build relationships with partners from the web3 ecosystem, and find strategic LPs to develop strategies for their product and design.

Chapter One has taken a different approach

The six-month program will go live in April after accepting applications for the next month. Interestingly, unlike traditional incubators and accelerators, which often focus on quantity rather than quality, Chapter One wants to pave the way for a smaller group of projects and take a more personal approach. The venture firm plans to support teams working on products such as cross-chain interoperability, combining DeFi and NFTs. Still, it hopes teams can surprise them with fresh and exciting solutions or ideas.
'We're excited to support and back exceptional founders and to really get in the weeds on areas like product development, road mapping, and design. Each company in our first season of Studios will have personalized attention from our team and our community of mentors'- Says Mene Mazarakis, Co-lead of Studios
Chapter One's team is made up of a group of people who have been involved in the development of startups and have experienced the growth stages of a startup. Before founding Chapter One, Jeff Morris Jr. was VP of product at Tinder. Mene Mazarakis, co-lead of Studios, was an early product manager at Diem (formerly known as Libra). Maria Tanagarova, Studios' other co-lead will lead Founder Experience and support product operations. Since its inception, the venture firm has backed various crypto companies and projects, including MoonPay, Syndicate, The Graph, and Wonder.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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.

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.

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.

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10.

Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

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.

If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
