Russian billionaire launching a palladium-backed token
The multi billionaire in revenues Russian company, Nornickel, is on its way to launch the first ever created palladium-backed tokens. Its President and Chairman, Vladimir Potanin, told the press this week that the token will be supported by an Hyperledger Fabric, with full support from IBM.
Potanin, who is also one of the richest businessmen in Russia, affirmed that he is currently reaching several regulators around the world, including at the historical geopolitical enemy, the US.
The Russian-based metal company performs large operations across the entire continent and it is ranked amongst the top ten copper producers worldwide. In addition to this, they have earnt recognition in the nickel and palladium mining industry. When asked about the initiative of launching its own token, Potanin commented the following:
“We are trying to digitize all our sales contracts because it looks more efficient, transaction costs are lower and it adds flexibility for our clients. If you don’t need a certain amount of material you can split a token in parts and sell it to other clients. And for us, nothing changes: we ship palladium and clients get as much as they need.”
The Cryptonary team believes the use case of the token may be outstanding, as Nornickel’s clients tend to order too much palladium and hence require an instrument to renegotiate their contracts. All in all, is easier to manage if the contract is tokenised. Regarding extra procedures, Vladimir specify that the tokens will be backed either by Nornickel’s guarantee to ship the actual tons of metal or by the best banks in Russia.

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.
