We followed five successful investors and discovered their tips and tricks to invest in crypto gems (100x-1000x potential)
Disclaimer: This is not financial advice. We are not experts. You should do your own research.
1. TALK TO INSIDERS
This sounds like an obvious thing to do, but “you would be surprised by how many people just follow mainstream news and trends to make investment decisions”, said one of our interviewed investor.
Main Youtube channels such as Bitboy, Ivan on tech and Coin bureau are all the rage when it comes to understanding trends and ramping up your basic crypto knowledge, but any project these channels may talk about are already big projects, and therefore exhibiting “limited” upside potential. Don’t get me wrong, these are amongst the best channels in the crypto sphere, and you can make huge profits following their recommendation, especially long term, but don’t expect to find life changing 1000x hidden gems there.
In the crypto investment world, whoever gets in early (and finds gems) wins big. So, for moonshot type of crypto investments you should spend time in chat rooms. In fact, spend 99% of your time in chat rooms, as this is where knowledgeable investors and insiders share hot and upcoming projects. Here we don’t talk about the 5x–10x projects, but more so the 50x-100x projects, or even 1000x projects, and you certainly want those in your portfolio. So install Telegram and Discord and start looking for these “insider” chats.
The best is to observe for a while recommendations of different chat members; monitor which members do the best recommendations and which ones don’t. Once you have understood who is successful, start investing with them. Don’t hesitate to ask questions, participate and share your own recommendation, as this will also give you visibility and credibility. Ultimately you should start private chats with the ones you are comfortable with and share insider tips. Some chats to start with are DuckDao Telegram, MoneyParty Telegram, and K crypto Discord, but there’s plenty others. Some of these groups will require a monthly fee or that you hold their own token, but it is often worth the investment.
Yet, like everywhere, many bad projects will circulate and this is also the case in chat rooms. So make sure you do your own research before doing any investment. If you don’t know how to do that, check some videos on Youtube on how to identify good projects, there’s plenty on the topic.
2. FOLLOW SUCCESSFULL INVESTORS
Successful investors follow other successful investors, which follow other successful investors. People who are good tend to hang out together, but they also follow and spy on each other. A technic, mentioned by one of the successful investor, which is quite effective, is to monitor whale accounts on-chain movements and mimic their investment decisions.
Luckily, on the Ethereum blockchain and the Binance smart chain, transactions are public, as this is inherent to decentralization. So go on Etherscan or Bscscan and find out who are the successful wallets/accounts, usually big whales. A big whale account can range from USD 1M to several hundreds of millions. It is advised to follow different wallet sizes. But beware that you may not be able to replicate a whale account investment strategy, as the volume of projects they may invest in as well as the execution speed they have, may not be suitable for you.
As a strategy, analyze which wallets are the ones that invested in a successful project before it became successful. This will require some on-chain knowledge. And investigate if these wallets consistently bet on successful projects over the past 3–6 months. Then start monitoring moves on these wallets and mimic investments that make sense for you. Don’t forget to make your own research before investing. This method will work for tokens traded on decentralized exchanges like Uniswap (Ethereum blockchain) and Pancakeswap (Binance smart chain).
There are tools to monitor addresses, typically CryptoCurrencyAlerting bots, which is simple to set up or Nansen, which is an extremely powerful monitoring and analytics tool, though a bit pricy. This is not to mention all the blockchain analytics software that can help you monitor on-chain moves.
If you don’t know how to navigate Etherscan and Bscscan, or do on-chain analysis there are plenty videos on Youtube.
3. MONITOR LAUNCH PLATFORMS
As a investor, you can’t have an eye everywhere and therefore you should use the help of crypto aggregators to keep updated on promising crypto investments. Missing out on some of these projects could mean missing out on huge upside potential.
There are crypto launchpads that can help you discover gems before they are spun into the mainstream market. Launchpads basically seek early-stage projects with strong potential and raise money for them. These projects often raise between USD 50k to USD 500K before listing their token on a decentralized exchange. The money raised is usually used to create the initial liquidity on these decentralized exchanges. Typically 5% to 20% of the project’s total token supply is given to investors in exchange for funds raised.
However, to participate in the investment rounds, there are requirements that must be met, such as owning a certain amount of the launchpad’s token and/or being whitelisted for each investment rounds.
One of the big advantage of these launchpads is that they are designed with various vetting processes to support filtering out scam projects and rug-pulls. So your risk of getting scamed by these projects get quite low. Some of these launchpads have been around for a while , like Polkastarter or DuckStarter (which is actually run by DuckDao) and there are relatively new ones like The Qube or the RedKite.
4. BONUS — DIVERSIFICATION
This is a base rule in investment: don’t put all your eggs in the same basket. Yet, what is the diversification that is adapted to you? It depends on your total investment amount and your risk profile. As a rule, the more you diversify the more you reduce the risk related to a single project, but you also reduce the reward impact of a single project on your total portfolio.
So, choose the correct diversification for you. Yet don’t invest in 50 projects if you have USD 10K to invest, it will be too complicated to manage and you will limit your upside potential (as the performance will be an aggregation of the performance of the 50 positions and its unlikely you can cherry pick 50 good projects). Counter wise, don’t invest only in 1 project, as you won’t have any diversification and will rely only on this project to be successful.
General guidelines:
30%-50% of the portfolio in major players like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance coin or Cardano20–30% in top 100 coins, hands picked according to current trends (eg. NFT, Defi, interoperability, etc.)20–30% in Gems, cherry picked by doing extensive research. We believe our project Rebellion Protocolis a good addition to any portfolio, in the Gem category.
