My Crypto Portfolio

Probably the most interesting page for you, as I am showing you my Crypto allocation and especially where I hold my cryptos and where I stake which crypto.

As I do not trust anybody, I have diversified my cryptos and spreaded it over many crypto exchanges and also on personal wallets (hot & cold). You see my allocation in detail below...

I started January 2021 with a very small amount and just some cryptos. Then I did more and more research and bought more and more cryptos.

Now I have a diversified crypto portfolio which in my opinion is optimized for me to lower the risk of loosing money.

But I need now to invest quite some time (new learnings) and managing my whole crypto portfolio. I like to do this work.

Why to buy crypto?

Why it does make sense in my opinion to hold crypto. Due to Corona money printing by central banks increased so much. This rises the money for goods to pay and this brings down the value of our FIAT (latin word, “a determination by authority”) money. Also my pension fund money. So how can I invest my money against inflation (inflation hedge) and to have enough money in my retirement. Here I show you my activities, which I hope will work for me.

Money printing & Inflation

+ Details

Due to Corona central banks are printing so much additional money. This rises inflation which lower the purchasing power of my fiat money.

My money on the bank

+ Details

I have almost no money on my bank. I just have enough money to pay montly needed goods (ex food, insurance). I have some money on the side in crypto stablecoin, to buy a dip, if crypto crashes.

My pension fund

+ Details

I paid since I started to earn money into the pension fund. Now I am worried, that when I am retiring, that my money in this fund has lost purchasing power!

My living & holiday house

+ Details

I have with my wife togehter a living house and also a holiday house (where we can live independent, own electricity, water, wood to heat). So these 2 property investments help us to have our portfolio diversified.

My stocks

+ Details

I have some money invested in stocks. I did quite well with stocks, but I moved the most of my stocks into crypto, as I believe with my research of the crypto I hold, I will outperform the stocks. But I will keep some stocks, to diversify my portfolio.

My crypto

+ Details

Since 2021 I started investing in crypto. I did a lot of research and I believe a lot  of crypto projects will be the best investment over the next years. But I believe also, that much more of crypto projects will disapear. there are thousands of crypto projects out there. Therefore an in deepth analysis of crypto project is crucial.

Which crypto I buy?

My research use crypto news sites and crypto video channels. Before I buy a crypto. I do a research by myself and do not decide on opinions of others, I just take this into account. The most important topics for me is, to have a good feeling about a crypto project. You find my research criterias in the blue box. If I bought a crypto I hold it mostly for a long time. I do no day or short term trading.

What problem solves this crypto project

+ Details

This is the most important topic to know about the crypto project. It must solve a problem, it must bring value. What is the USP (Unique selling proposition). The faster you can explain the benefit and the better it can solve the issue, the better.

Crypto project landing page

+ Details

Take a close look at the crypto home page. This is the business card, the entry for all people, to see, what the product ist. So a professional website is a must. It must have all needed information on this homepage.

h

Crypto white paper

+ Details

Reading the white paper is a must, even it is complicated to understand. You need to understand what is going to be build. Does this makes sense? Take a look at the team, do they have the right people for this? Is the white paper well written? Or can it be a scam? There are examples, see “squid game” token scam. They just created a website, wrote a white paper with spelling errors and did some social media marketing.  As they had enough millions collected from people, they took all the money and disapeared.

Marked capitalization and growth rate

+ Details

Market capitalization is a very important number. As the price of the crypto coin or token is based on market capitalization. If money flows into this crypto, the price of the crypto is going up.

The team and developers behind

+ Details

The team behind the crypto is essential! The most important after the USP (Unique selling proposition). Take a close look about every person in the team and what benefit this person brings. Go also to other sites, like linkedin and so on. How many developers they have coding and how much code they distribute, see GIT commits (as example). Are they hiring people? Are they growing?

Competitors

+ Details

Are there other crypto on the market which solve the same problem. Why is this crypto project better than the other competitors? Is there a USP (Unique selling proposition). An example: This crypto chain is the fastest and has the least transaction costs of all other crypto chain out in the market.

Funding

+ Details

There should be investors believing in this crypto project. Do your research about who is funding it.

Tokenomics

+ Details

Here I need to learn more about this topic. It is important to understand the “tokenomics” of a crypto project. So do your research.

Can I stake it?

+ Details

Usually if a crypto project uses “proof of stake” consensus then you can earn money by providing your coins to be staken. This gives you like an “interest”. Usually shown as  APY (annual percentage yield). Example 6% APY for Solana. When a project is starting and start to stake, the APY is mostly much more high, and over time if more and more is staked, APY is going down.

My Crypto Portfolio Allocation

BTC, ETH, SOL are my strongest positions. I love SOL as I bought at the right time and it went parabolic.

    • I buy and hold
    • I hold on many crypto exchanges and also on many wallets, to diversify risk of loosing
    • I try to stake there, where it makes most sense to me, most driven by the percentage of staking

          My Crypto Staking

          I stake as much as possible with my cryptos, that I am still comfortable with it. There could be slight risk about loosing some money. Since January 2021 as I started I never lost money. As I do staking in so many different platforms, the risk is spreaded.

            • I earn “interest” for my crypto
            • What is staking in detail? See in fundamentals

            My Crypto Staking on Crypto Exchanges

            A good driver to learn about crypto is following

            • Start with a very small porfolio with a small amount of money invested in crypto. Do your own research, see above, how..
            • Just start with buying crypto from a crypto exchange. Get familiar with this, see the price going up and down (volatility), get comfortable with it.
            • Start thinking to optimize your portfolio with staking of crypto. Allocate there, where it makes most sense to you. Be aware if you send crypto from an exchange to another exchange or personal wallet, it will have some fees. A lot are with small fees, but others are with high fees, like today with Ethereum 1.0, where you have high (gas) fees!

            Below in the table you find my crypto staking portfolio.

            I update it regularly when I do allocate new crypto’s or need to renew my fixed staking period or change the exchange/wallet of a specific crypto, as it looks more safe or more profitable to me.

            As I do this documentation, it help me better understand the crypto staking landscape and to invest best for my purpose.
