Kickstarter wants to decentralize
Kickstarter is launching a new organization called Kickstarter PBC, which is responsible for building an open-source protocol that imitates the functionality of Kickstarter's core platform, but in a decentralized way. The protocol will run on the carbon-negative blockchain platform Celo and will be available for collaborators, contributors, and even crowdfunding competitors to build on and use.The company also announced that it will establish an "independent governance lab" which will publish research and engage with the community on the topic of protocol governance. Once the independent organization has completed all required preparations, Kickstarter will migrate its website to the new infrastructure. The company said users would not feel any difference, even though Kickstarter will switch the technology to a decentralized model. The development of the new protocol will start in the first quarter of 2022, and Kickstarter expects to transition its site to the protocol sometime in 2022.
Why did Kickstarter choose Celo?
Celo is a platform that acts as a global payment infrastructure for cryptocurrencies and is aimed at mobile users. Many companies have received negative feedback from their users about using proof-of-work blockchains like Ethereum due to environmental concerns. For this reason, Kickstarter chose Celo because it uses a less energy-intensive consensus mechanism that the team behind it calls "carbon-negative."Kickstarter is not the only traditional tech company looking to create a new decentralized and open-source platform. Twitter is working on bluesky, an attempt to develop a decentralized protocol for social media. While these two companies were pioneers on the internet when they were founded, it seems that they need to take it a step further by using decentralized, autonomous organizations to stay ahead of innovation.

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.
