The project got its start by allowing users to stake their SOL. They later focused their efforts on providing RPC services. RPC is required by everyone, as it allows transactions to be sent from individual computers to the blockchain.
RPC networks are also essential for developers to be able to test their code and develop on the Solana blockchain.
How do RPC Networks work?
Thanks to our man Bill, here is a simple explanation of how a transaction occurs on the Solana blockchain:- You make a transaction via your phantom wallet
- Transaction instructions are sent to an RPC server
- RPC server sends your transaction to the validators to validate
- Once validated, the RPC server relays this back to you and your wallet is updated on your screen
GenesysGo powers multiple popular NFT marketplaces. NFTs are some of the most popular products on the Solana blockchain. So, a high volume of transactions is fed through the GenesysGo RPC network. This makes GenesysGo a prominent player in the space, and it owns over 50% of the market share.
Shadow Protocol
For all blockchains, but proof of stake blockchains like Solana specifically, storage is key. A blockchain is literally a ledger that stores a full history of all the transactions that have ever taken place. So where are they stored? Right now, most of the data is stored on a Google database, but this doesn’t exactly scream Web 3 does it?Enter Shadow Protocol- Google Drive, built on Web 3. The goal is to provide a decentralised storage solution for the Solana network. For more detail on the specifics, I encourage you to check out the Alpha DAO report by Bill Papas.
The SHDW Token
GenesysGo has a native token called SHDW, which operates as the governance token to power the Shadow Protocol. SHDW was initially airdropped to NFT holders and then made available for purchase shortly after.The SHDW token is the currency through which the protocol will run. Operators stake SHDW, and they will also earn SHDW for doing so. So, there is both a use case and a demand.
For the Tokenomics of SHDW check out the full deep dive in Alpha DAO 10.
Super Shadowy Coders
GG also has its own NFTs called Super Shadowy Coders. These NFTs were launched to raise money. They periodically provide their holders with SHDW tokens and have seen solid growth in floor price since their initial mint.Half of all the SHDW tokens in supply will come periodically through holding the NFT. There are 10,000 NFTs and 10,000 SHDW tokens for every holder.

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.
