December proved to be a difficult month across the entire crypto sector. It was the third negative month for my portfolio, following six consecutive positive months that had delivered solid gains.
Main performances for the month:
Bitcoin ($BTC): -3.06%
Ethereum ($ETH): -0.67%
Solana ($SOL): -6.66%
Overall Portfolio: -5.94%
Despite the market pressure, the portfolio showed resilience. Many cryptocurrencies dropped sharply, with some losing as much as 36 percent. Thanks to diversification and selective positioning, the impact on our allocation was more contained.
Certain positions performed strongly even in this environment. For example, Chiliz ($CHZ) gained around 30 percent during the month, highlighting how an active management strategy can capture opportunities regardless of general sentiment.

The current structure of the portfolio remains balanced and oriented toward future growth:
Crypto: 55%
ETFs: 21%
Stocks: 19%
Cash: 5%
This allocation allows flexibility to navigate volatility, protect capital when needed, and stay ready for new opportunities as market conditions evolve.

December 2025 was characterized by consolidation, reduced liquidity and significant corrections. Bitcoin moved from its earlier highs toward the $88,000 to $90,000 range after temporary dips below $81,000. The broader crypto market experienced a strong risk-off phase influenced by macroeconomic uncertainty, leverage resets and holiday-thinned trading volumes.
Ethereum and most altcoins underperformed heavily, and the overall sector lost close to $1 trillion in market capitalization during the final part of the year. Institutional activity was mixed, with spot Bitcoin ETFs recording net outflows of about $1.09 billion. Nevertheless, 2025 remained a record year for ETFs, surpassing $20 billion in cumulative inflows.
At the same time, important long-term trends continued to grow, including stablecoins, real-world asset tokenization and clearer regulatory frameworks. These developments reinforce the structural adoption path for 2026 and beyond.

The new year started on a much stronger note. Early January 2026 has brought renewed optimism, fresh capital allocations and a rebound in institutional demand.
Bitcoin recovered above $92,000 to $94,000. Ethereum climbed close to $3,200. Major assets such as XRP, Solana and Dogecoin also showed solid upward momentum. More than $1 billion flowed back into crypto ETFs during the first trading days of the year, supporting a constructive and positive sentiment.
Analysts expect Bitcoin to challenge new all-time highs in the near term. Forecasts for 2026 targets range between $120,000 and $170,000, with more bullish scenarios pointing toward $200,000 or higher. The combination of improving regulations, increasing adoption and ETF-driven demand creates a favorable setup for the months ahead.

Throughout December, I maintained a disciplined approach aligned with my long-term plan. No new positions were opened or closed, and no pending orders were placed. The Risk Score remained stable at 6, reflecting controlled exposure.
Core principles of the current strategy:
Remain focused on high-quality crypto assets
Avoid impulsive changes during corrections
Gradually reduce portfolio risk as prices recover
Stay data-driven and patient
Keep a long-term perspective at all times
This method has proven effective over the years, and I intend to continue applying it consistently during 2026.

Solid and transparent update. Short-term drawdowns happen, but the structure, discipline and early 2026 rebound show why consistency matters more than any single month.... Show More
