• Litecoin (LTC): 90%, as it is considered a commodity by the SEC
• Dogecoin (DOGE): 75%, also likely recognized as a commodity by the SEC
• Solana (SOL): 70%, but the SEC still considers it a security
• XRP: 65%, mainly affected by the SEC lawsuit, needs to resolve regulatory disputes

Binance allegedly significantly reduced holdings of $BTC and $ETH last month, shifting to $USDC, with a lower reduction ratio of $BNB . Why is this?
According to crypto KOL AB Kuai.Dong's analysis, this move may be to realize profits, adjust asset structure, enhance liquidity, or prepare for future regulatory and market fluctuations. Some users also claim that the reduction is likely to pay fines to U.S. regulatory authorities.

The market capitalization ratio of $ETH has reached a new low of 10%, and the market share of $BTC has continued to rise since 24/12/5.

$ETH A great benefit worth looking forward to! The Ethereum Pectra upgrade will start testing in February and is expected to go live on the mainnet in early April.

This upgrade aims to 1. Improve the user experience of cryptocurrency wallets, with addresses known as externally owned accounts (EOA) on Ethereum being reconfigured to support smart contract functionality; 2. Allow validators to increase the amount of ETH they can stake—from 32 ETH to 2,048 ETH, which will also help speed up the setup process for new nodes—currently, the system causes validators to queue for weeks to launch new infrastructure.

Review of major BTC events in 2024

What type of trading strategy do you belong to?
1) Short-term trading
Trying to establish a trading advantage, focusing on short-term trading, as there are still many stable short-term opportunities in the current market.
Onchain trading, although it has higher returns, also comes with greater volatility, making it unsuitable for those with low stress tolerance.
2) The "barbell portfolio" still applies (suitable for most people without a clear trading advantage)
70-80% of funds allocated to BTC & SOL, leaving a small portion of funds for more speculative investments.
Regular rebalancing to maintain a reasonable asset allocation.
3) Assess your available time and adjust your strategy
If you are just an ordinary person with a job and cannot stay in the market all day, you cannot compete with young traders who sit in the trenches for 16 hours a day monitoring the market.
However, passively holding underperforming altcoins, waiting for the market to turn in your favor, is also not an effective strategy.
4) Explore diversification strategies (combine different fields to improve win rates)
Core portfolio (BTC & SOL) + low-risk arbitrage strategies (e.g., airdrop mining, although the difficulty has increased, there are still opportunities).
Position yourself in new ecosystems that are not yet mature, such as HyperLiquid, Movement, Berachain, etc.
Deepen expertise in a specific niche to become an expert in that field.
