Rug pull

Post Feature Image

Tempers flared yesterday as yet another DeFi protocol scammed investors and disappeared with $10.8m worth of crypto. One investor in particular who has lost $1m has vowed revenge and dedicated $100,000 in an effort to find the culprits. The total breakdown of the stolen assets can be found here.

Automated farming protocol

Compounder.Finance described itself as an ‘automated farming protocol aimed at investing in and taking advantage of the best profit making protocols in DeFi’. In a November AMA session Marketing and Community lead ‘Mr Shammy’ underlined the organisation’s awareness of and resistance to rug pulls. When asked about building trust in the community and resistance to rug pulls Mr Shammy replied:

Absolutely. So this is the number one focus right now, as money will come where the trust is vivid and clear. As discussed earlier, what we can’t change is to stay anon due to local financial product restrictions. What we can do is take as many steps as possible to ensure that people can TRUST our protocol.’

Further blow

In a further blow to investors the project was recently independently audited by Solidity.Finance who describe themselves as providing ‘Smart contract auditing and development services’. The company which have over $50m in on chain value provide ‘affordable yet intensive audits of smart contracts’. The internal trapdoor responsible was actually highlighted as an area of concern in the audit which stated ‘the treasury contract and updating of strategy pools are both under control of the development team’ however the final report claimed the protocol was safe from ‘outside’ interference.

Feelings continue to run high with Solidity.Finance reporting death threats as investors look for answers. Sentiment was reflected in the price of Compound.Finance native token CP3R when it hit rock bottom as news came out.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

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. 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.

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.

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.
