Get a straight answer on whether this program and level of commitment is a good fit for you. No pressure to enroll if it's not.

Cryptocurrency involves risk. We do not manage positions on your behalf. Past results are not guaranteed.

You Are Competent Everywhere Else.
Then Crypto Enters The Portfolio.

You run a business, lead a team, or make decisions people rely on.
But when crypto volatility hits your portfolio, the rules you follow everywhere else can disappear.

Chad Wittfeldt and Niko Mercuris in conversation in front of a live audience

You buy after the headlines, when most of the move is already behind it.

You hold a losing position for years, waiting for it to come back to even.

You add to a falling position because selling would make the mistake real.

You size crypto by gut feel instead of by what your portfolio can absorb.

Chad Wittfeldt and Niko Mercuris presenting on stage

That private contradiction is frustrating because it is not an intelligence problem.
It is what happens when market information has never been turned into an operating process.
Volatility makes every missing decision more expensive.

Crypto Renegades replaces scattered information and reactive decisions with a disciplined investment process you can apply in every market cycle.

More Information Will Not Fix A Missing Sequence

Free content can teach you charts, indicators, narratives, and market theories.
But before your own capital goes into any position, you still need to answer:

  1. 1What is the thesis?
  2. 2Where is the idea proven wrong?
  3. 3How much capital is actually at risk?
  4. 4How does this position affect total exposure?
  5. 5What happens after a win or a loss?

Without a consistent sequence, more information can create more hesitation.
You do not need another pile of content.

You need a decision process.

The Decision Protocol

Before capital is committed:

  • Thesis written
  • Invalidation level set
  • Risk sized
  • Exposure checked
  • Exit plan defined
Confirm Position
Chad Wittfeldt and Niko Mercuris, co-founders of Crypto Renegades

The Decision Protocol

The framework organizes every position around
seven decisions made before and after capital is committed.

  1. 1Define the thesisState what you believe the market is doing and what evidence supports the position.
  2. 2Set the loss boundaryDecide the maximum acceptable loss before emotion enters the decision.
  3. 3Size the positionBuild position size around the loss boundary, not excitement or a desired profit.
  4. 4Check total exposureUnderstand how one position affects the rest of the portfolio, including any leverage and its liquidation distance.
  5. 5Plan entry and exitDecide where you build the position, where you reduce it, and where you exit, before any capital moves.
  6. 6Journal the resultRecord what happened and whether the process was followed.
  7. 7Review the decisionBring the reasoning into a general educational feedback setting where it can be inspected, challenged, and corrected.

The protocol cannot remove market risk.
It makes decisions visible. Visible decisions can be reviewed. Reviewed decisions can improve.

I’m pretty new to crypto, I started out last year in one of those WhatsApp groups that used the IDCX exchange. I was killing it tell the exchange locked me out, so I know scams. The Crypto Renegades is not a scam, it is not just a group, it is a community/family. It is not like any other Skool, Discord or FB group, it is all of those. There Skool group is just that, where you can go through 9 different trainings How to trade BTC, Avoiding scams etc. There is a private FB group where all the Zoom calls are stored, and they have Zoom calls every day except Saturday and a few days they have 2. But the community itself is in the Discord group like no others Discord group. They have 6 sections on trading signals, the 2 founding members and some other specific members that have proven track records post their thesis’s or trade ideas. You don’t need social media anymore because there are 10 different discussion groups on an array of topics and they have even let members start new topics. If you need help with anything Bill has you covered, he created the resource and help desk sections, he is a Wizard. He has filled the Discord with so much resources it is literally mind boggling, he has an e-library, with every trading strategy out there and he is always add more. I could go on and on because there is so much more but the best part of it all is the members. You become a family because you interact with the same group of people everyday, trading ideas and even sharing what you had for dinner. I hear people saying every day how it is worth every penny.

One of the biggest strengths of Crypto Renegades is its emphasis on personal responsibility, risk awareness, and long-term thinking. Instead of promising overnight wealth, it encourages education, strategic positioning, and understanding market cycles. The Skool alone is worth the cost to join but when you throw in the 24/7 Discord, the almost daily zoom calls and live trading, it can’t be beat.

Crypto Renegades has been a pleasure and a privilege to belong to the past 9 months. The training and weekly trading calls have been amazing. I have been involved in investing since I was a teenager and have traded in many markets. Being involved with Crypto Renegades has been a blessing. Always being a student is key in life and being a part of this group will help anyone from a beginner to a seasoned professional. They are even expanding their platform to new opportunities and better services to always giving more and serving us. Many Blessings.

Clear, structured, and genuinely practical mentorship

I genuinely believe Crypto Renegades offers one of the most structured and practical crypto trading programs available. Instead of just hyping up market trends or tossing out random signals, the team focuses heavily on building a real, repeatable process. If you are looking to move past guesswork and trade with a clear plan, I can easily recommend them.

I’ve had an excellent experience with Crypto Renegades so far. One of the things that stands out most is the exceptional level of support. You’re not simply given information and expected to navigate everything on your own. The team is active, responsive, and genuinely committed to helping members grow and improve. Chad and Niko clearly bring a wealth of expertise and have built a strong, supportive community around the program. The education, resources, and mentorship have significantly improved my understanding of the markets and trading as a whole. If you’re looking for a structured learning environment, hands-on support, and guidance from experienced mentors, I’d highly recommend taking a closer look at Crypto Renegades

I’ll admit, I was hesitant at first. It’s a significant investment, but looking back, it is easily the best $4,000.00 I have ever spent. Everything that Chad, Nico, and Bill promised in the beginning has turned out to be 100% true. If you know absolutely nothing about trading crypto, this is the group you need. They don't just give you "tips"; they take you by the hand from the very start and guide you until you are confident enough to trade on your own. One of the most valuable parts of Crypto Renegades is the community. There is pretty much someone available in the mastermind group 24 hours a day to help you out if you get stuck or have a question. If you’re on the fence, just do it. The education and support here are top-tier.

Thx team

Been a great group. Appreciate everything you do Chad, Niko, Bill, Ryan, SixBall, Jeff, Joker. You guys go above and beyond for the members. It's been a long road home. It's really hard to pick where to start with this. When I look back at everything I've been through in crypto and think about where I am now, it honestly makes me a little emotional. I had been burned more than once. I'd trusted the wrong people, lost money, and gotten to the point where I seriously questioned whether I should ever touch crypto again. And let me be clear, I'm only 3 months in with these guys and still learning every day. But finally just being in a place where I can understand where I went wrong and why. Being able to close that door once and for all and know that I'm now in control. That alone is worth every penny to me. I'm genuinely grateful for Chad, Niko, Bill, and the community. I know I still have a lot to learn, but compared to where I started, I feel like a completely different person. For the first time in a long time, I don't feel helpless and I cant thank you guys enough for that.

Knowledgeable and generous mentors and group in general!

These two founders, Niko and Chad, were gracious and transparent enough, to allow me to watch their Wednesday night Zoom calls for over a year before I joined them. I was fairly convinced that this was a great group of people, but I felt I needed more time to be comfortable moving into crypto as an investment vehicle. Now that I've joined them, I am so thankful, not only due to the timing in the crypto space, but also due to the available help and sharing of ideas that goes on between all of the members. It's on the individual to put in the effort and learn the chart reading and timing, but both Niko and Chad are two knowledgeable and generous mentors, who will give a person every opportunity to understand crypto futures trading.

Crypto Renegades is an Amazing Group to Join

I love learning about crypto from the Crypto Renegades as they are so thorough in providing detailed information with learning how to trade and then actually trading different crypto. We learn about chart analysis, different crypto coins, and guidelines when to enter and exit a trade, for example. They are so helpful if you have any questions and will answer them at anytime! Thank you Crypto Renegades for all that you do for all of us in your community!!

Before joining Crypto Renegades, I knew very little about crypto and honestly felt overwhelmed trying to understand the space. Since becoming part of the group, I’ve learned more than I expected—not just about crypto itself, but about charting, market structure, risk management and more...What I also appreciate is that it’s bigger than just crypto. it’s learning how markets work, building discipline, and being part of a group that genuinely wants everyone to grow. I’m grateful to be part of Crypto Renegades and excited to keep learning.

The Objective Is A Process You Own

The goal is not permanent dependence on Crypto Renegades.
It is to help you build your own investment process with a repeatable framework.

Before

  • You collect strategies but struggle to apply one consistently.
  • You act on other people’s opinions without a thesis of your own.
  • You size positions by instinct.
  • You change the plan once the market moves.
  • You treat every loss as a verdict instead of data.

After

  • You use the same decision sequence before each position.
  • You know why you hold each position and where the idea fails.
  • You establish risk before considering possible reward.
  • You journal decisions instead of relying on memory.
  • You bring your reasoning into an educational feedback loop.

A real crypto education should leave you with more than content.
It should leave you with a process you can keep using after the lesson ends.

What Membership Is
Designed To Help You Build

Four parts work together around one decision process.
A curriculum in the order decisions happen, live review of your reasoning, a private community, and the supporting education around it.

  • A private community of operators
  • Portfolio frameworks
  • Crypto storage and security education
  • General crypto tax education

The Supporting Infrastructure

Membership also includes:

Niko Mercuris and Chad Wittfeldt on a live video session with members

Live Educational Review Of Your Decision Process

Bring questions and completed decision work into live sessions. The purpose is to examine the reasoning, identify where the protocol broke down, and turn theory into a process you can apply under market pressure.

A Curriculum In The Order Decisions Actually Happen

Move from market mechanics through thesis building, position sizing, risk limits, execution, and review in a defined sequence.

The value is not another library of disconnected lessons. It is knowing what to learn next and how each decision connects to the position.

  1. market mechanics
  2. thesis
  3. position sizing
  4. risk limits
  5. execution
  6. review

Crypto Renegades provides general education. It does not provide individualized financial, legal, or tax advice.

This Program Is Deliberately Not For Everyone

It is not a fit if:

  • You need guaranteed profits.
  • You plan to invest rent money, emergency savings, or borrowed funds.
  • You want somebody else to make every decision for you.
  • You cannot accept losses as a possible part of investing.
  • You are looking for a passive investment product.

It may be a fit if:

  • You are a working professional or business owner with capital separate from tuition and living expenses.
  • You understand that crypto and leverage involve real risk.
  • You want education and feedback, not an income promise.
  • You can make time to study, practice, journal, and attend live sessions.
  • You take personal responsibility for your decisions and your results.

Straight Answers
Before You Apply

Answered on camera 16

  • You have a 30-minute conversation with our team. We review your experience, the time you can commit each week, what you want to learn, the capital you can keep separate from living expenses and emergency savings, and whether the required platforms are available where you live. You leave with a straight answer on fit and, if it is a fit, a clear picture of the program options and what participation requires.

  • The call is free. If the program fits, we explain the membership options and terms so you can make an informed decision. If it does not fit, we tell you. There is no pressure to enroll either way.

  • Platforms let you open a position with very little, so there is no hard minimum. What matters is that the capital sits apart from living expenses, emergency savings and debt, so a loss never touches the essentials. Niko's rule of thumb is to start with $1,000 to $2,500 and to risk only a small slice on any one position, usually 1% to 2%. On a $2,000 account that means a position should lose no more than $20 to $40 before the stop loss closes it. If you would need money you cannot afford to lose, the program is not a fit yet.

  • We teach a structured decision process built around risk. Every position starts with a written thesis, a defined loss boundary and a position size worked out from that boundary. Some positions last minutes to a day, others a few days to a couple of weeks. Members learn to position for moves in either direction with defined risk, to check total exposure across the portfolio, and to journal and review every decision, then settle into the timeframe that suits them.

  • Nobody can promise you results, and we do not present member stories as typical. Outcomes depend on things only you control: how quickly you learn, your discipline with risk, how coachable you are, the capital you start with and how carefully you manage it. What we provide is the process, the education and the mentorship. Losses are part of trading, and the program teaches you to keep them defined and small relative to your capital.

  • No. We never manage positions or capital on your behalf, and we will never ask you to send us crypto. You keep full control of your own accounts and make your own decisions.
