Portfolio rebalancing: what is it and why does it matter

Imagine you've decided to distribute your portfolio like this:
→ 50% Bitcoin
→ 30% Ethereum
→ 20% other cryptos

Three months later, Bitcoin has doubled. Now it represents 65% of your portfolio — even though you haven't bought any more.

You're more exposed to a single asset than you intended. That's where rebalancing comes in.

📌 Rebalancing = bringing your portfolio back to its target distribution.

In practice:
→ You sell a portion of what has gone up (Bitcoin in this example).
→ You buy back what has underperformed (Ethereum, others).
→ You return to your initial allocation.

💡 Why is it useful?
→ You "take profits" on the assets that have performed well.
→ You maintain your desired risk level.
→ You mechanically buy what's cheaper.

⚠️ Caution: in France, selling crypto for crypto doesn't trigger taxes. But selling for euros does — keep this in mind for your rebalancing strategy.

Tomorrow: we'll see how to set up a complete and simple investment plan. 👇

DCA vs Lump Sum: which strategy to choose?

If you've got some cash on hand, you've got two main options:

🔵 OPTION 1: LUMP SUM
You invest everything at once.
→ Advantage: if the market pumps right after, you maximize your gains.
→ Disadvantage: if the market dumps right after, you take the maximum loss.

🟡 OPTION 2: DCA
You split your amount and invest over multiple transactions.
→ Advantage: you reduce the risk of bad timing.
→ Disadvantage: if the market skyrockets right off the bat, you miss out on some of the gains.

📊 What do the studies say?
In stock markets, lump sum statistically beats DCA about 2 out of 3 times — because markets tend to trend upwards in the long run.

But in crypto, where volatility is off the charts, DCA is often more suited for newbies. The potential loss from bad timing with lump sum can be psychologically devastating.

💡 My conclusion:
→ Got idle capital and believe in the long term? Lump sum might make sense.
→ Investing your savings gradually each month? DCA is your go-to strategy.
→ Just starting out and afraid of volatility? DCA without hesitation.

📝 Exercise: you have €300 to invest. How would you split it? All at once, or €100 per month over 3 months? Think about your answer before Friday.

Build your simple crypto dashboard in 10 mins
No need to be an Excel pro. Here's a minimalist dashboard that gives you the essentials.

The 6 columns to create:

1️⃣ Crypto — The name of the asset (Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB...)
2️⃣ Quantity — How much you own
3️⃣ Average purchase price — The price you bought it at (average if you bought multiple times)
4️⃣ Total invested — Quantity × Average purchase price
5️⃣ Current price — What the crypto is worth today
6️⃣ Current value — Quantity × Current price

Then, two simple calculations:

📈 Gross performance = Current value − Total invested
📉 Performance % = (Current value − Total invested) ÷ Total invested × 100

And add a line "Fees paid" to note what you've spent on transaction fees since the start.

✅ This dashboard will give you an honest picture of your situation — not just the number displayed on the screen.

📝 Exercise: take 10 minutes this weekend to create this dashboard. If you want, share in the comments your performance (in %, not in amount) — I'm curious to see where the community stands. 👇

How to track your crypto portfolio: tools & methods
Owning crypto is great. Knowing exactly what you hold and what you're making (or losing) is even better.

Here are the methods to track your portfolio:

📊 1. The Excel / Google Sheets spreadsheet
→ You log every buy: date, amount invested, purchase price, quantity.
→ You calculate your performance yourself.
→ Advantage: total control. Disadvantage: it takes time and discipline.

📱 2. Tracking apps
→ CoinStats, Delta, Koinly: they connect to your exchanges and wallets.
→ They automatically calculate your performance, gains, and losses.
→ Some even generate tax reports.

🔗 3. Direct tracking on Binance
→ The "Portfolio" tab on Binance gives you a global view.
→ Useful for beginners who only have one exchange.

💡 My recommendation to get started:

A simple Google Sheets + the Binance app. When your portfolio gets more complex, move to a dedicated tool.

Tomorrow, I'll show you how to build your dashboard in 10 minutes. 👇

Should you buy a hardware wallet? The real answer
A hardware wallet costs between €50 and €150. So the question is: is it really worth it?
Here’s how I break it down:
If you have less than €200 in crypto:
→ Staying on a reputable exchange is reasonable. The risk is low. No rush to invest in a hardware wallet.
If you have between €200 and €1,000 in crypto:
→ Now’s the time to think about it. A €70 hardware wallet to secure €500 — it’s worth it.
If you have more than €1,000 in crypto:
→ It’s essential. You wouldn’t leave €1,000 in cash on a table in a public place.
The concrete benefits:
✅ Your cryptos survive the collapse of an exchange.
✅ No hacker can access it remotely.
✅ You’re the sole owner — no accounts to freeze.
📝 Exercise: calculate the total amount of your cryptos today. Which category do you fall into? Is your current security adequate for that amount?
Reply in the comments — I’m curious to see where you all stand. 👇

Hot wallet vs Cold wallet: which one to choose?

Now that you know what a wallet is, here’s how to pick one.
🔵 Hot wallet — who’s it for?
→ You make regular trades.
→ You’re holding small amounts.
→ You want something convenient and free.
Examples: MetaMask (browser), Trust Wallet (mobile).
🔒 Cold wallet — who’s it for?
→ You want to secure larger amounts.
→ You don’t need to access your cryptos daily.
→ You want to be completely independent from platforms.
Examples: Ledger Nano S/X, Trezor Model T. Price: between 50 € and 150 €.
💡 The simple rule: use a hot wallet like a pocket wallet, and a cold wallet like a safe.
You don’t keep all your savings in your pocket. Same logic here.

What’s a wallet?

A wallet is your crypto portfolio.
But hold up — it doesn't actually store your cryptos. It stores your private key, which is the proof that these cryptos belong to you.
It's like a vault key. The vault exists on the blockchain. The key is your wallet.
There are two types:
🔵 Hot wallet — connected to the internet. Handy, fast, accessible from your phone. Examples: MetaMask, Trust Wallet.
🔒 Cold wallet — disconnected from the internet. A physical device. Much more secure. Examples: Ledger, Trezor.
👉 Keep this in mind: the more your wallet is connected to the internet, the more convenient it is... and the more vulnerable it is.
Tomorrow, we’ll dive deeper: I’ll explain how a seed phrase works — and why it’s the most crucial thing to protect in crypto.

Hey folks. 11 posts. I'm learning just as much as you.

This week: Ethereum, scams to dodge, DeFi, NFTs, volatility.

Next week, we're getting hands-on: how to scoop up your first crypto without getting wrecked. 👀

Stay tuned.

Should we fear volatility?

Bitcoin dropped -80% in 2018. It surged +600% in 2020.

Volatility can be scary. But it's also part of the game.

What protects you? Never invest what you can't afford to lose. Don't panic when it dips. Don't get hyped when it spikes.

Volatility isn't the issue. It's the emotional reaction.

3 new terms: DeFi, NFT, Bull/Bear market

DeFi = banking-free finance. You borrow, lend, and trade — no middlemen involved.
NFT = a digital file with a unique proof of ownership registered on the blockchain.
Bull market = everything's pumping. Bear market = everything's tanking.

One term a day, and in 6 months you'll be fluent in crypto. 💪

The 3 most common scams

Rug pull: the project disappears overnight with your funds.

Fake giveaway: "Send 0.1 ETH, receive 0.2 ETH." Nope.

Phishing: a fake site mimics Binance to steal your credentials.

Golden rule: if it sounds too good to be true, it's a scam. Always.

Bitcoin = currency. Ethereum = platform.
It's like the difference between a phone that only makes calls… and a smartphone with thousands of apps.
Bitcoin was created to replace traditional currency. Ethereum was designed to build decentralized applications on top of it.
Both are valuable. Both are different. Understanding that is already progress.

My Week 1 Recap

This week, I learned:

🔸 What Bitcoin really is
🔸 The rookie mistakes to avoid when starting out
🔸 The basic crypto lingo

What stands out to me: this world is massive. The more I learn, the more I realize how much I still don't know.

Next week, I'm diving into Ethereum. Do you want me to break down what it's really used for?

Let me know 👇 — if there are enough of you, I'll do it!

The first mistake beginners make in crypto (and that I almost made)**

Buying a crypto because an influencer talked about it.

Without understanding what it is. Without knowing why. Just because "it's going to rise".

I almost fell into the trap. Here’s what I learned to do instead:

✅ Look for what the project really does
✅ Check how long it has existed
✅ Never invest what you can't afford to lose

Crypto is exciting — but it requires perspective.

Have you ever made this mistake? 👇

**What is Bitcoin really?**

We hear about it everywhere. But concretely?

Bitcoin is a digital currency that no one controls. No bank, no government. Just code and mathematics.

It was created in 2009 by someone (or a group) under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. And no one knows who they really are.

What fascinated me: there will never be more than 21 million of them. It's written in the code. Forever.

Did you know that? 👇
