Popular cryptocurrency analyst and trader Michaël van de Poppe is looking ahead to 2022 and how best to capitalize on the cryptocurrency markets.
In a new discussion, Van de Poppe tells his 157,000 YouTube subscribers that he’s focusing on two key categories while seeking to maximize his gains.
“When we’re looking at my portfolio, and I think most of the portfolio should look like it, my portfolio consists of an investment part but also of a trading part.
The investment part is most of the assets that I just keep on cold wallets for the long term, which is approximately 80% of my entire portfolio.
The trading portfolio is approximately 20%, and in that, I try to make more money which I can move towards the investment portfolio, or to my bank account, or towards other assets to de-risk myself or to just build my portfolio further.”
Van de Poppe makes a point of mentioning that while the crypto concept of “long term” is somewhat truncated compared to traditional investing, he does intend to hold such assets for “multiple years.”
When it comes to his specific long-term holdings, the trader has put his money in the top-two crypto assets.
“In my investment portfolio, I’ve got Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). I’ve got some Polkadot (DOT), and I’ve got a staking portfolio… where I switch between certain assets that I want to stake…
The trading portfolio is the one that I want to switch between USDT (Tether) and Bitcoin towards altcoins and such, in which I try to make money. I try to make an allocation towards a certain asset group that makes the most sense.”
Van de Poppe foresees the overall crypto market cap continuing to grow, possibly to as high as $10 trillion by the end of 2022 or into 2023. He says he’s building his portfolio with such massive growth in mind and targeting assets that he believes are undervalued.
At the top of his list is decentralized parallel blockchain network Cosmos (ATOM), which he says is “currently showing strength in the price action but has been seeing some cycles that are important to look at.”
Van de Poppe is also keen on decentralized exchange and automated market maker protocol Curve DAO Token (CRV).
He notes,
“We’re constantly making higher lows, higher highs, which might bring us a result that we’re going to have an acceleration into price discovery for Curve.”
