Holdings
The classic hedge. Did most of the work over five years.
Digital scarcity. Adds upside and volatility; held as BTC on NEAR.
Gold's more volatile cousin, with industrial demand on top.
Thesis
Gold has been the default hedge for a few thousand years. Bitcoin wants the same job. This basket holds both instead of picking a winner.
Over five years, $1,000 here would have become about $1,730, a little ahead of SPY's $1,640, with a 38% worst drop against much deeper falls for bitcoin alone. Mixing them cut swings by about 30%.
Most of the gain came from gold and silver. Bitcoin added volatility more than return over this window, which is why it's capped at 40%.
Risks
None of these pay income. Gold and silver move together (correlation 0.84), so the metals half is really one bet. In a sharp liquidity crunch, all three have fallen at the same time.
Exit signal
I'd trim if real interest rates rise sharply and stay high, which has historically hurt gold.
