Earlier this month, it was announced by Vitalik Buterin that the ETH2 deposit address was live. This meant that the much-awaited upgrade was finally around the corner. As of now the Ethereum blockchain runs a Proof-of-Work consensus algorithm which is both energy-intensive and difficult to scale. The plan is to upgrade the chain and implement a Proof-of-Stake consensus algorithm with this Serenity upgrade.
Investment Requirements
If by the 24th of November 525,288ETH are deposited into the ETH2 contract, then the launch of genesis will be on December 1st. This number of ETH equates about $250 million at today’s ETH price (~$470).
As of now 105,120ETH have been deposited which is 20% of the requirement and we are less than a week away from the 24th of November. If accumulating this number of ETHs takes longer then the genesis event will be pushed accordingly.
One-Way Street
ETH2 depositors will benefit from staking rewards of about 25%APY. The issue they are facing however is how long their funds remain locked in there. For now, this deposit contract is a one-way street. Once in, funds cannot be withdrawn until Phase 2 is completed and that is estimated to take a few years.
$10M Investment from IBC
Firm believers in Ethereum’s mission are willing to take a chance on it and lock funds from an extended period of time. One of those people is Khurram Shroff, Chairman of the IBC Group, whom is willing to deposit 20,000ETH into the contract (~$10M). He stated: “We are very excited by the ‘Proof of Stake’ concept proposed for the Ethereum 2.0 smart contracts and are locking up 20,000 eth which is a one way trip till phase 2, this lockup shows our confidence in ETH2 and dedication to the beacon chain. The greener and more efficient version being introduced in the second iteration addresses the unsustainably high energy consumption required by the ‘proof of work’ model, making it even more attractive”.

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.
