Var - Crypto Variable Port

Post by var »

Hi Folks,

I decided to track a simple crypto port. Let's see how it does.
Just to keep it simple I am using BTC and ETH. I have other altcoins but I have excluded them to keep things simple.

starting with 20k on 12.28.21

*formating is a little off.

CRYPTO USD crypto price qty
BTC 10000 48465 0.2063344682
ETH 10000 3850 2.597402597

Consider Bitcoin as a 5x tech stock type holding, so 5% bitcoin instead of 25% stock, 25% gold (PAXG perhaps, or XAUt), and the rest in dollars (50% USDt) and you can backtest that in PortfolioVisualizer - such as comparing to the PP https://www.portfoliovisualizer.com/bac ... jatgsAU96x

Not much point in going back earlier than 2019 however as bitcoin was still pretty much a wild-west back then, has only really become more mainstream since 2019

PortfolioVisualizer doesn't seem to have PAXG or XAUt so I just used regular gold

That's without any staking (lending of crypto assets), which is highly variable ranging up to double digits amounts, presumably in reflection of high risks of defaults.
