Just my opinion, not asset recommendation!

The biggest mistake of those investing in crypto today is not buying the wrong coin.
It is building a portfolio as if there still existed a 'next Bitcoin' hidden somewhere in the market.

This mistake always leads to the same place:
many coins, small positions, diluted return, and the constant feeling that 'it almost worked'.

The market has already shown how to reward capital: concentration in a few right assets, not dispersion in narratives.

An efficient portfolio today does NOT try to be creative

It tries to be functional.

This means accepting that:

  • no one will get another BTC for pennies

  • returns come from cycles, not miracles

  • being wrong little is more important than being right about everything

With this in mind, a lean and efficient portfolio today revolves around four assets, each with a clear role.

Bitcoin: it is still a base, not a bet

Bitcoin does not enter the portfolio to 'multiply quickly'.
It enters because:

  • it remains the asset that defines the cycles

  • concentrates liquidity

  • reduces structural risk of the portfolio

Ignoring BTC because you think 'it has already risen too much' can be costly in moments of market stress.

Ethereum: where institutional money flows

Ethereum is the central infrastructure of the market.
It is not about narrative. It is about real use, L2s, tokenization, integration with TradFi.

Those who underestimate ETH usually only look at price and forget that:

  • a large part of the ecosystem depends on it

  • when the market matures, ETH usually regains prominence

Solana: the growth engine of the portfolio

Solana is not a hedge, it is not a base.
It is leverage.

SOL usually:

  • to drop more during corrections

  • to rise more during expansions

That is exactly why it makes sense to have a relevant position, and not a symbolic one.

While many people keep switching from L1 to L1, Chainlink plays a less obvious and more efficient role: connecting the real world to smart contracts.

LINK does not depend on 'which blockchain will win'.
It grows if the ecosystem grows.

The mistake that destroys return: putting 'a little bit' in everything

R$ 200 in ten different coins is not diversification.
It is postponement of decision.

Even if one of these coins does 5x or 10x, the final impact will be irrelevant. Meanwhile, a well-sized position in a right asset changes the outcome of the entire portfolio.

Good portfolios accept that:

  • some positions will fail

  • few will succeed

  • these few need to be large enough to matter

Crypto today does not pay curiosity, it pays conviction

It is no longer a market to 'test coins'.
It is a market to build positions.

BTC, ETH, SOL, and LINK cover:

  • base

  • infrastructure

  • growth

  • cross exposure

The rest is noise, distraction, or short-term bets.

If your portfolio depends on finding 'the next hidden gem', it has already started fragile.
If it is built to survive and grow even without miracles, you are playing the right game.
