January started on a positive note but closed negatively due to a sharp increase in market volatility across both traditional and crypto markets.
Main performances for the month:
Bitcoin ($BTC): -10.14%
Ethereum ($ETH): -17.56%
Solana ($SOL): -15.31%
Overall Portfolio: -3.86%
Despite the intense market pressure, the portfolio showed relative resilience. Many cryptocurrencies experienced very aggressive drawdowns, with several assets losing more than 60% from recent highs. Thanks to diversification and selective positioning, the overall impact on our allocation remained more contained.
Some individual positions performed strongly even in this environment. For example, Axie Infinity ($AXS) recorded a gain of approximately 43% during the month, highlighting how active management and selective exposure can still capture opportunities regardless of broader market sentiment.

The current portfolio structure remains balanced and focused on long-term growth:
Crypto: 48%
ETFs: 26%
Stocks: 20%
Cash: 6%
This allocation provides flexibility to manage volatility, protect capital when needed, and remain ready to take advantage of opportunities as market conditions evolve.
I am planning to deploy the available cash balance in the coming days to selectively increase exposure and take advantage of the recent market correction.

January 2026 ended with a sharp and painful correction across the entire crypto sector. Bitcoin closed the month down roughly 23% from its January 1st level, with most of the decline concentrated in the final 8 to 10 days. This move was driven by a combination of leveraged long liquidations, hotter-than-expected US CPI and PPI data, and a rapid shift in interest rate cut expectations, which triggered a broader risk-off move across global markets.
Altcoins were hit even harder, with many large-cap assets declining between 30% and 50% from their mid-month highs. While these drawdowns are emotionally challenging, they are a normal part of crypto market cycles and have occurred during every major bull market phase in the past.

In the short term, particularly between February and March, elevated volatility is likely to persist. The market may experience additional downside or a period of sideways consolidation as remaining leverage is cleared and macroeconomic uncertainty is digested.
That said, the broader fundamentals remain unchanged. Institutional participation continues to grow, spot ETF demand remains strong, and the current political environment in the United States is openly supportive of crypto innovation. From a cycle perspective, we are still relatively early, at around 21 months after the 2024 Bitcoin halving, which historically places us in the expansion phase rather than the end of a cycle.
Corrections like this are healthy, necessary, and temporary. To all my copiers: stay calm and avoid emotional decisions during periods of fear. Patience and discipline have historically been rewarded in this asset class, and I remain highly confident in the long-term outlook.

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