Q2 Cryptocurrency Hype Watchlist - The Journey

Every now and then, a unique opportunity presents itself and we most certainly will be capitalising on this one. Actually, we already have started and this is intertwined with this particular report where we announced a new short-term investment we are making - on which we already saw a ~100% return.

Post Feature Image

We have allocated a portion of capital we can afford to lose because the risks are certainly high. However, those risks are also paired with incredible potential growth - we're talking 5, 10 & 20Xs.

Given our expectations for the second quarter of 2021, here are some of the projects we are eyeing investments in, projects that have not even gone live yet.

Our Target Holding Period: 1-6 weeks.

The Bluechips

Some of the assets that are already trading on public markets (some of which we own as long-term investments) will be considered Bluechips in this particular space. Let's go through the list:
  • SOL: This is an obvious one as it is the backbone of this ecosystem and the native asset of the chain.
  • SRM: Most of the trading/swapping being done on the Solana ecosystem today, is being conducted on Serum and given that it's been around the longest with a functional product it will be considered a bluechip.
  • RAY: This is Solana's Uniswap (or PancakeSwap if you consider Binance Chain). It is an automated market maker (AMM) protocol that also has a very well developed UX/UI. If Solana entered into its own SZN, then RAY should at least be valued as much as CAKE; which would put it up at ~$90.
  • OXY: Oxygen's wallet right now, though functional, is limited. If it is able to become an integral part of the Solana DeFi trading experience, OXY has a chance at being considered a bluechip.
 

Upcoming Project Watchlist

These are the projects we are currently eyeing allocations in, upon release. Very little details have been shared, even when it comes to supply schedules. Therefore putting price targets pre-release will be impossible. We're planning on entering the pre-sales or buying the listings in cases where we don't get into pre-sales.

Note: Projects not live yet.

  • Solstarter (SOS): This is a fundraising platform where any Solana-based project can come in and raise funds by selling tokens in pre-sales. If we are to set an initial target market cap for this project it would be a mere $50M (equivalent to BSC's Wault Finance). Our investment in SOS is not one where we expect to make a great return, it simply is a doorway to future pre-sales in which we can make those returns.
  • Solrise Finance (probably will be called RISE): This is a platform where anyone can create a fund in which others can invest. This is actually an important type of project in the world of DeFi overall - Enzyme Finance (rebranded from Melonport) actually have been working on this space for multiple years but they're based on Ethereum. This is a Solana equivalent for the most part. While this is still on the Solana testnet, more than 2,000 unique fund managers registered and over 3,000 funds were created which tells us it will likely have traction upon launch.
  • Synthetify (SNY): This is the Synthetix equivalent on Solana. With high throughput, scalability, speed and cheap fees there certainly is a narrative for trading derivatives on Solana. The project is still being tested and the token remains unreleased.
  • Star Atlas (ATLAS & POLIS): Blockchain-based video game based on space exploration that also includes NFTs. In reality, this is a proof-of-concept for Solana as a fast/scalable blockchain that showcases its capabilities. There will be two currencies related to the project: ATLAS (in-game currency) & POLIS (governance token). Both of these will be released through what they are calling GAOs (Galactic Asset Offering). This one in particular will hold more risk than other assets in our eyes and hence our allocation to it will be smaller. Also, we are not interested in holding this long term at all - just in it for the hype.
  • Mango Markets (token unconfirmed): Mango Markets is a margin trading platform that already is fully functional. As far as we know, there have been no announcements about an upcoming token launch but we certainly are going to participate should that happen.

Tools (Wallets, Trackers, Explorers)

As this is a new blockchain, a different set of tools will be required to navigate the space. For example, on Ethereum-based DeFi most users utilise MetaMask (a browser-based wallet). As this doesn't work on Solana, different wallets will be used.

1 . Wallets

  • Sollet: This is the first-issued wallet for Solana, for which a web browser extension was recently released. To be very honest, the user experience is horrendous. This is not what we'll be using ourselves but we're covering them all anyway.
  • Solong: Web-browser extension. A step up from Sollet but still has some lag. This is the wallet we have tested.
  • Phantom Wallet: Still unreleased to the public. Phantom Wallet is what we are aiming to use for this Solana endeavour as it presents the best UI/UX.
 

2 . Blockchain Exploration

On Ethereum we all use EtherScan.io for track transactions and ensure finality. Here are the options available for Solana:

  • Solana Explorer: The first and main blockchain explorer for Solana.
  • Solana Beach: Blockchain explorer with an easy to use and navigate UI.
 

3 . Position Tracker

There is one particular front-end platform where one could see all the transactions their own address has performed. Farmers will be able to view their yields, investors can view their spot positions and have a one-stop shop to analyse their performance. That platform is Step Finance.

 

Note: BEWARE OF SCAMS. We have linked the official website (to the best of our knowledge) of each of those projects - they are hyperlinked to the platform names in the report above. Beware of scammy website impersonating these projects for fake pre-sales.

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.

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.
