FAQ

• What is Sapphire?

  Sapphire is a battle-tested suite of research tools with a proven track record of helping people make informed crypto investments.

• I’m a beginner, should I subscribe to Sapphire?

  Sapphire can be useful for crypto investors at all levels of experience. A beginner should be eager to learn if they want to make extraordinary returns using Sapphire. To make full use of our research it is recommended that you take the time to go through our educational materials first to acquaint yourself with the best digital hygiene and trading practices.

• How does Sapphire protect subscribers from insider trading?

  All of our employees abide by a trading policy which prevents them from buying or selling the asset featured in a report within 72 hours of its release. Our policy also requires all employees to disclose their holdings and report any conflicts of interest before making a recommendation.

  We tightly guard contenders for the Pick of the Month and our other reports. Without exception, the first people to know about our recommendations are Sapphire subscribers.

  Please see our trading policy for more information.

• How often are Sapphire reports released?

  Sapphire members receive reports regularly every week. The Sapphire suite includes different reports and signals for different strategies. Different report types are released at different times in the month.

  Once you subscribe you will be sent a “Getting started” email that will inform you when you can expect each type of report to be released. Beyond that, we also regularly release educational material and market analysis through our newsletter and website.

• What cryptocurrency exchange should I use?

  It depends on the particular crypto-asset. To get outsized returns it’s necessary to do the work that other investors are unwilling to do. This often means using different exchanges and decentralized protocols. Our reports give you instructions every step of the way to make our recommendations accessible to investors of any experience level.

• How much should I invest?

  Sapphire members can invest as little as $250 to $1000 each month and still make outstanding returns. In fact, we recommend that members invest small amounts that they’re not afraid to lose.

  The Sapphire investing methodology uses principles from the venture capital industry to construct a winning portfolio. We expect one or two big wins to carry the portfolio in any given 24-month timespan. The remainder will either have middling performance or underperform the market.

  As a member you will learn how to construct a VC style crypto portfolio over a set period of time with a predefined up front budget you decide on. To make our strategy work, it is necessary to consistently make small bets over a period of a year or more.

• Price went up after a report was released, should I still buy?

  As a consequence of the early-stage nature of our picks, the price of a token can potentially spike between 5-30% within a few hours of a report’s release. It is important to be prepared if you want to get the best possible entry price.

  If prices have already increased that doesn’t mean you have missed your opportunity. Every report includes a “Buy Up To” price that indicates the maximum entry price we recommend that still provides a coin with 10x potential. Prices tend to fall a bit the next day or so which can represent a good entry.

• Is Crypto Briefing an investment fund or investment advisor?
