How To Build A Strong Portfolio đź’Ľ

Building a strong crypto portfolio is essential for managing risk and maximizing returns.
Today, we will provide you with a practical strategy, including recommended percentages and example of coins to include in your portfolio!
→ The following recommendations are for investors planning to stay in the crypto market for the mid to long term, with at least a few thousand dollars to invest.
50% in Bitcoin and/or Ethereum

Choose your preference or opt for both, but ensure that half of your investment is allocated to Bitcoin and/or Ethereum.
Yes, it may seem like a lot, especially for new investors, but I can't stress enough how essential this allocation is. While they might not be 100x gems…
…Bitcoin and Ethereum represent the future and offer a solid return on investment with unparalleled security.
For those with a substantial amount to invest, I recommend allocating 30% to Bitcoin for asset security and 20% to Ethereum for its growth potential and versatility.
If you have a higher risk tolerance, consider investing more in Ethereum and less in Bitcoin.
→As the author of this article, my personal allocation is 10% Bitcoin and 40% Ethereum.
Mid-Cap Cryptocurrencies 20-30%

This portion of your portfolio balances risk and reward, providing a dynamic element to your investment strategy.
Mid-Cap cryptos offer an excellent opportunity for substantial growth.
→Don’t diversify too much, invest in 2-5 coins maximum.
In the current market, we recommend coins like Solana, Cardano, Polkadot, Chainlink, Polygon, and Hedera.
Choose your champions and prepare for success!
“Low”-Cap Cryptocurrencies 10-20%

When we refer to low cap here, it isn't truly low cap, as we are still within the top 100.
Real low cap cryptos are so risky that they shouldn't comprise more than 5% of your portfolio.
We'll discuss this further in the final section.
But investing in small-cap cryptocurrencies can offer substantial returns if they succeed.
→Same here, don’t diversify too much, invest in 2-5 coins maximum.
We would recommend coins like MultiversX, Akash Network, Tezos, Fantom or The Sandbox.
Fun and Stablecoins 5-10%

Allocate a small portion of your portfolio for fun and risky investments, such as memecoins or new low-cap projects you've just discovered.
→Also, keep a small reserve of funds to take advantage of the bull run.
Many quick money-making opportunities will arise during the euphoria phase, and it would be a shame to miss out due to a lack of funds, wouldn't it?
Building a robust crypto portfolio requires a strategic approach that balances stability with growth potential.
But remember, trends come and go, so it's crucial to detach yourself emotionally from your investments.
→This will enable you to adjust your allocations more effectively, whether an asset has performed exceptionally well or has faced challenges.
