What is diversification?

In crypto, diversification refers to the distribution of capital in different types of coins and tokens to reduce the overall risk. It involves combining a range of strategies to create a portfolio made of a wide range of assets.

Diversification is especially important when an investor aims to profit from projects that are still in the early stages of development. 

How to diversify

By having a portfolio that is diversified between 8 to 10 different assets, the risk of failure is spread out. If one project fails to meet expectations and ends up being a poor investment, the loss is limited to the capital allocated to that particular asset.

An investor may choose to invest in some high-growth, high-risk assets (that pay off well in bull markets) as well as some lower-risk, lower-reward assets (which won’t suffer as much during bear markets).

someone invests all of their capital into a single asset, they under-diversify and may experience a loss, even if the rest of the market is on the rise. In a diversified portfolio, positive performing assets tend to neutralise those with poor or negative returns. 

Consider a portfolio where 10% of the total capital is allocated to 10 different assets. If one asset goes to 0, the total loss is 10%. But, if that asset gains 300% (which is a reasonable gain for a crypto asset during a bull run), the investor has made a 30% portfolio gain with a maximum worst-case of 10% risk (assuming the price of the other assets stays the same). 

The main reason for diversification is that nothing is certain in financial markets, no matter how confident an investor is about a particular investment. 

Note that it is also possible over-diversify. If an investor invests in too many assets, returns will be minimal as the capital is too thinly spread.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
