It's time for another update on the #Altcoin portfolio.
As it's the first of the month April, it makes sense to be looking at a DCA strategy.
I've done this twice in February, I've done this once in March.
I'm doing it again in April.
The current standings.
Total invested: $140,000
Current valuation: $40,453.23
It's down 71% from the investment.
I know, that's not great, but that's part of the personal strategy that I amplify, which is taking way more risk into the best asset class of all-time, as when I'm right, the returns will be a tenfold to an average. It's highly volatile, part of the game.
Most of the altcoins are down 80% since last Summer and have printed new cycle lows over the past week.
Awful!
That's why, for this DCA plan, I've decided to look at the winners and the strongest assets, and I do see a lot of resonating factors between the DeFi Summer in 2020 and the current price action and momentum in AI <> Crypto.
The add-ons:
- $5,000 in $NEAR at $1.21. (total pieces: 4132.23)
- $5,000 in $TAO at $311. (total pieces: 16.0771)
That brings me to a current portfolio value of $50,453.23, of which more than 50% is allocated to Bittensor and NEAR.
I'd be looking for a great return in the coming period, as I think TAO and NEAR will do really well.
Stay tuned!

CZ Binance says that the first time he bought Bitcoin he sold his apartment for $900K to buy the dip at $400 and he didn’t even have a job at the time.
Total crypto degen. 🤯
Bitcoin has closed red 5 months in a row.
October. November. December. January. February.
March closes on Tuesday.
Right now BTC is at $66k, down on the month.
Six consecutive red monthly closes would match the longest streak in Bitcoin's history.
The record was set between August 2018 and January 2019.
The only other time this happened, BTC was at $3,400 and went on to rally 300% in five months.
BREAKING: In a major escalation, Yemen's Houthi Group has officially joined the war with a ballistic missle launch at Israel, just as the war hit its one-month mark.
All eyes are now on the Bab al-Mandab Strait.
If closed, the world loses another ~6 million barrels of daily oil supply.
This is truly historic:
In just 27 days of the Iran War, the discussion has now become about Fed rate HIKES.
Just weeks ago, investors were debating how many rate cuts the Fed would implement in 2026.
Now? There's a 48% chance of an interest rate HIKE by January 2027.
And, the base case now shows interest rates UNCHANGED through September 2027.
This is one of the fastest shifts in Fed expectations since the 2020 pandemic, and the labor market has only weakened since.
2026 is going to be a wild year.
Bond markets are telling the future:
1. Trump paused tariffs with the 10Y Yield at 4.60%
2. Trump bought $200 billion of mortgage bonds with the 10Y Yield at 4.30%
3. Trump delayed Iran strikes with the 10Y Yield at 4.45%
4. Trump further delayed Iran strikes with the 10Y at 4.45%
Trump knows the bond market is existential.
BREAKING: President Trump says he is PAUSING the "period of energy plant destruction" in Iran by 10 days, until April 6th.
For the second time, within minutes of our call for bond market "intervention" and the 10Y Note Yield crossing 4.40%, Trump has delayed strikes.
Keep watching the bond market.
BREAKING: The Pentagon is developing military options for a "final blow" in Iran that could include the use of ground forces and a massive bombing campaign, per Axios.
US officials provide 4 "final blow" options:
1. Invading or blockading Kharg Island, Iran's main oil export hub
2. Invading Larak, an island that helps Iran solidify its control of the Strait of Hormuz
3. Seizing the strategic island of Abu Musa and two smaller islands, which lie near the western entrance to the Strait of Hormuz and are controlled by Iran but also claimed by the UAE.
4. Blocking or seizing ships that are exporting Iranian oil on the eastern side of the Strait of Hormuz
Some US officials think these options could create "more leverage" for President Trump.
