# Welcome to Cronos $Cartel
Cronos $Cartel is a Web3 Ownership project living on Cronos Chain since 2023. The Cronos $Cartel is designed to be initially backed by a combined $60,000 USDC in ₿ITCOIN RESERVE and $CRO/$CARTEL LP to protect the bets of our holders.
## Cronos $Cartel — Building The Foundation
Since its founding, ‘Cronos $Cartel’ has registered close to 2000 holder's wallets in the Cronos ecosystem for his most anticipated $Cartel token presale, airdrop and launch in 2026. Across its Inscription and NFT collections like the ‘Cronos $Cartel Insider Pass’, and ‘$Cartel Mink’, each launch has expanded in value.
✅ The Cartel's Inscription (supply 1B) have been sold out first for $0,20-$0,25 per 100k Inscription (500k $Cartel token airdrop)
✅ The Insider Pass NFT (supply 10k) followed and is now selling for around $2,00-$2,50$ each (500k $Cartel token airdrop)
✅ The Mink NFT (supply 5k) minted out in December 2025 and the floor price has recently been fluctuating between $8,00-$15,00 each (2M $Cartel token airdrop)
🪙 **This trend of growth in value over time give us the confidence to extend our ambitions with the upcoming $Cartel token presale.** Our INITIAL LP shall be one of the strongest on Cronos with $30,000 USD in $CRO paired with $CARTEL. Add to this, our layers of protection like:
✅ No team allocation
✅ Tokenomics favoring the long-term holders
✅ Decentralized vesting and staking mechanisms
✅ Mink NFT utility as APR% staking booster
✅ Our main backing reserve (Bitcoin and $Cro/$Cartel LP)
✅ Adding tokenized stocks & gold to strengthen our backing reserve
✅ Future DApp development to generate new revenues
✅ Future $CARTEL burn events
The Cronos $Cartel is putting the odds in favor of our real supporters to be winning.
