🐳 What 7-figure investors are buying

GM everyone. This is 2036, the crypto newsletter that pays you.

Here’s what we’re serving up today 🍲: blockchains are open to everyone - meaning we can see what all the big fish are doing with their money 🐳. What are wallets with $10M+ buying right now?

Let’s dig in.

Get smarter on crypto in 2 minutes

In the traditional financial world, unless:

• your rich uncle Larry tells you exactly what he just bought

• OR Warren Buffett gets forced to disclose the ownership of a business (because he owns like a gazillion % of it)

…there is no easy way to know where the smart money is going.

Crypto, however, is different.

Because blockchains are public, we can easily see who owns what since when.

This allows us to understand where crypto whales (= people with lots of $$) are putting their money right now.

If you’re wondering where you stand in the crypto financial hierarchy btw, here’s a chart for you…

None of what follows is financial advice, but as Tony Robbins says - success leaves clues, baby.

STEP 1: Head to Debank

Debank is the most popular wallet analyzer in crypto. It’s where we’ll go whale-watching 🐳

You don’t need the app. You can just open it on your desktop.

STEP 2: Go to More —> Web3 Social Ranking

This will rank the biggest wallets by:

• the amount of money they have in their accounts

• how many followers they have

STEP 3: Hover over name for a quick overview of top positions

This will show you their top token and NFT holdings - as well as the protocols they most use.

STEP 4: Establish patterns

This is where the magic happens. If all big whales are doing the same thing that you’re not, maybe they know something you don’t.

We just had a look, and here’s what we found…

The biggest positions for whales are:

1/ Ethereum, staked on both the Ethereum platform and on Lido (which we covered last week)

2/ Lending on Maker (something we’ll cover next week)

3/ Yield farming $FRAX and $CRV on Curve (slightly more technical, but coming soon to 2036 👀)

Memecoins and NFTs are popular too.

Investors are betting big on $PEPE, $RFD (Refund) and Mildadys.

And the most successful investor we came across - with a 91% win rate on a $20 MILLION portfolio - is betting big on $SHIB…(here’s their portfolio).

If this sounds intimidating, don’t worry. The point is not to tell you what to do, but to give you a tool - Debank - you can play around with.

If you hold some ETH, you’re already further than 99% of people. And if you don’t - we’ll soon have a guide ready to help you buy and store your first crypto safely.

In the meantime, have fun with Debank and reply to this email with any cool findings you come across!
