An open mind to approach Web3

During his recent speech at the second edition of the ATX Summit, Keat said that if the world wants to approach Web3, one should have an open mind.
“We must pierce through both the hubris and the veil of suspicion to understand the potentially transformative underlying technologies.”
He called the concept nascent and suggested not throwing the “baby out with the bathwater.” He went on to praise the new technologies for making cross-border transactions so fast and seamless. The Deputy Prime Minister said that blockchain technology has the potential to transform the future of finance. However, he noted that the crypto space is “highly risky.” To support his point, Keat mentioned the LUNA/UST meltdown and how it led to a severe loss for investors. He went on to call for a clear set of regulations. 
“We must continue to adapt our rules to ensure that regulation remains facilitative of innovation and yet addresses the key risks that crypto-assets pose.”
Notably, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has constantly been warning the citizens against crypto and has taken measures to limit the crypto promotion to the general public earlier this year. 

He said that the regulatory bodies must guard against malicious activities, including cyber heists, data theft, and cyber terrorism, to harness the full potential of cyberspace. 

Like several countries formulating cybersecurity strategies, introducing fresh regulations, and building capabilities, Singapore has also made “digital defense the sixth pillar of Total Defense.”

Singapore is collaborating to unleash potential

Singapore is putting a strong “emphasis on adoption, investment in innovation, and closing the digital divide.” It started the Smart Nation movement and the Digital for Life movement to support its goals.

Recently, MAS has announced a collaboration with financial institutions in Project Guardian to research the use cases for DeFi. The government is actively assisting smaller merchants and firms in digitalizing payments and processes. Keat said that Singapore could achieve much more if it accelerates its partnerships in the field.

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.
