Imagine creating an invention that would go on to spawn billions in sales… but not getting your fair share.
That’s the case of Lonnie Johnson, a lifelong inventor.
It started in high school with his first invention: a 4-foot-tall robot with operating hands.
At the time in 1968, it was quite an impressive feat. And it won Johnson his high school science competition. He’s been an inventor ever since.
In 1979, Johnson got his first patent on a device he called the Digital Distance Measuring Instrument. Without getting into the technical details, it’s the foundational technology for CDs and DVDs.
At their peak, CDs generated over $13 billion in sales annually. For DVDs, it was $16 billion.
Just 1% of those sales would be nearly $300 million. Yet Johnson didn’t get a dime.
While a successful inventor, he was a neophyte in business. And at the time, he didn’t realize he should pursue a monetary reward.
He called it “the big fish that got away” and vowed not to let it happen again.
Johnson’s next invention came in the 1980s when he created a nozzle that shot a stream of water, and he thought it would make a good water gun.
With that, the “Power Drencher” was born.
Eventually, Johnson found a small manufacturer, Larami Corporation, to make the gun. Johnson tweaked his design, and they renamed it to the “Super Soaker.”
You probably recognize the name. And you’re likely well aware the Super Soaker became a hit.
First appearing in stores in 1990, by 1991 it had generated $200 million in sales and went on to annually rank in the world’s top 20 best-selling toys. And by 2015, it topped $1 billion.
The best part is that this time, Johnson had a deal in place… a royalty deal.
In exchange for the use of his invention, Larami would pay Johnson a percentage of the sales.
Now, we don’t know exactly how much Johnson made. But at one point, he had to take Hasbro (which acquired Larami) to court over his royalty payments.
And in 2016, the case was settled. The court awarded Johnson $72.9 million.
As you can see, a royalty is a powerful way to generate wealth.
But you don’t have to do anything nearly as difficult as inventing a Super Soaker to start earning royalties… A small subsector of crypto is already paying out huge slugs of income.
All you have to do is buy and hold…
Royalty Income From New Crypto Technology
Today, you can invest in new crypto technologies and start collecting what we call “Tech Royalties”… which pay you as the underlying crypto tech accelerates.
Here’s how Daily editor Teeka Tiwari describes it:
Imagine owning a small stake in a portfolio of 10 music acts, and one becomes The Beatles while another becomes Elton John.
This is the opportunity in front of you right now with Tech Royalties.
Some of these names will end up being worth hundreds of billions of dollars… And you’ll own a piece of them and the income they kick out forever.
So by investing in cryptos with these automatic payouts, you can set yourself up for a steady income stream… And early adopters will see the highest rewards.
These types of cryptos pay an average yield of 10%. That’s 151% higher than the benchmark 10-year Treasury note rate… and 580% higher than the current yield on the S&P 500.
While that’s exciting, Tech Royalties have an even more exciting feature. We call it the “exponential dividend.”
You see, crypto rewards are paid in more crypto. That’s different from stock dividends, which are generally paid in cash.
That means crypto rewards appreciate at the same rate as the tokens themselves.
Take one of our current crypto income tokens, for example. When we first took a position in this token, it had a reward rate of roughly 5% annually.
But now the token is up over 2,000%. Our effective yield, meaning the yield on our original cost, is now over 75%.
So you could recoup your entire investment in nearly a year.
The best part is… This project’s technology is accelerating, and we expect an even higher yield in the future.
Why You Want to Become Tech Royalty Now
Lonnie Johnson’s story shows you the power of royalties. But the truth is, the vast majority of us will never engineer a new blockbuster toy.
Yet thanks to Tech Royalties, you don’t have to. And now’s the time to position yourself in this new asset class.
Last week, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved proposals for 11 spot bitcoin ETFs.
The list includes Bitwise, Grayscale, Hashdex, BlackRock, Valkyrie, BZX, Invesco, VanEck, WisdomTree, Fidelity, and Franklin.
Combined, the 11 firms with bitcoin ETF approval have $17 trillion under management.
There’s no doubt a spot ETF will be a huge win for bitcoin. It will immediately give BTC legitimacy. There will be no more doubt that crypto is a new asset class.
Consider a recent survey from the Digital Asset Council of Financial Professionals.
It found only 12% of financial advisers currently recommend bitcoin to clients. But 77% say they plan to do when a U.S. spot bitcoin ETF becomes available.
Now that Wall Street has successfully launched its bitcoin ETFs, we believe it will begin pumping out several types of altcoin ETFs.
And based on our research, it will start with an income crypto ETF focused exclusively on coins that come with these automatic payouts.
For instance, BlackRock has already filed to launch an ETF for Ethereum (ETH), the second largest crypto by market cap behind bitcoin.
Ethereum is probably the most important commercial blockchain in the world. And a major part of its appeal is you can earn crypto yields from your Ethereum.
Wall Street already has 168 dividend ETFs, with more than $380 billion in assets under management. So we believe it’s going to replicate that with cryptos.
Now, this is a subsector of the crypto market. And I’d wager it’s a new way of investing in crypto for 99.99% of people.
So you don’t want to dive into these tokens without understanding them first…
That’s why Daily editor Teeka Tiwari recently held a special briefing on these types of tokens. He believes they’ll help you reach your Freedom Number.
Your Freedom Number is simply the amount of money you need to make to live the life you want.
And because these types of tokens can generate incredible income on top of capital gains – they can help put you on the path to financial freedom.
During his special briefing, Teeka shared details about six tokens with these automatic payouts that we believe will get their own ETFs after bitcoin.

Investing in Tech Royalties could mean the difference between collecting a lifetime of royalties like Lonnie Johnson… or betting your retirement on the measly 10% returns you might see in the market.
