Tech Hype Cycle: Bitcoin entering the "Slope Of Enlightenment"
According to many analysts in the crypto space, Bitcoin may be officially entering the “Slope Of Enlightenment". The slope is one of the stages of a tech cycle created by the leading research and advisory company, Gartner . The Gartner Hype Cycle is described by the company as
“a methodology gives you a view of how a technology or application will evolve over time, providing a sound source of insight to manage its deployment within the context of your specific business goals. The cycle provides you with a graphical representation of the introduction, maturity, and acceptance of new technologies.”.
Executives, investors, traders and researchers most now more than ever before, being able to filter the technologies that have real application and are commercially viable, that's why the methodology helps to understand the maturity and adoption process of many innovations out there. A proper understanding of the hype cycle allows investors to reduce the risk and ensure their objectivity.
In a recent article, Forbes highlighted the fact that cryptocurrencies, in general, may have already passed through the “Trough of Disillusionment” and are now entering the enlightenment phase. The crypto space already suffered the consequences of inflated expectations during the 2018 bear market, in which only the projects with real-world applications survived.
As you can see in the following chart (which shows the number of social-media mentions in a monthly basis), BTC experienced the technology trigger/ first hype in 2017, when people across social media started to spread the word of its potential.
The graph, in general, has a similar shape compared to the Gartner Hype Cycle. The analyst Andy Swan gives its opinion on the matter by saying:
“a massive uptick in interest in 2018 (peaking as Bitcoin prices peaked near $20,000), followed by a fast a furious drop back down into what many consider to be the trough of disappointment. Things are starting to get interesting again, as conversations around buying and using Bitcoin are starting to grow out of the trough, which could be the beginning of the slope of enlightenment phase”.

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 success guarantee work?
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.
