English term or phrase: real pony

Por gentileza, como posso traduzir 'REAL PONY' indicado no contexto abaixo?

Well, in 2008, the financial industry crashed and, perhaps propitiously, an anonymous person or persons named Satoshi Nakamoto created a paper where he developed a protocol for a digital cash that used an underlying cryptocurrency called Bitcoin. And this cryptocurrency enabled people to establish trust and do transactions without a third party. And this seemingly simple act set off a spark that ignited the world, that has everyone excited or terrified or otherwise interested in many places. Now, don't be confused about Bitcoin -- Bitcoin is an asset; it goes up and down, and that should be of interest to you if you're a speculator. More broadly, it's a cryptocurrency. It's not a fiat currency controlled by a nation-state. And that's of greater interest. But the REAL PONY here is the underlying technology. It's called blockchain.

Agradeço sua habitual ajuda.

Portuguese translation:o detalhe que faz a diferença

Explanation:
Pelo contexto, entendo que "pony" traz a ideia de algo pequeno, porém único, o diferencial do produto/serviço.

Pony: "something small for its kind..." (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/pony)

Acredito que "o detalhe que faz a diferença" traz o mesmo significado de "real pony" e mantém a ideia do tamanho.

o verdadeiro segredo

Explanation:
Pelo contexto, parece-me que a expressão se refere a um pormenor que faz a diferença, mas também que é aquilo que ainda não é conhecido e poderá interessar os leitores (investidores?).
