    Kai, whats going on with you man? Do you ever rest? Always ahead of your competition. Sometimes i believe you are an alien 👽. LOL.
    Great presentation as always my friend, i am really skeptical on this one though cause market are so high and with the extreme volatility cryptos have i think i will stick to S&P 500 for now. Also, i treat crypto as a risky investment and i am bullish on certain coins. In the future maybe i will give it a shot! Keep it real man! 😜😜😜

      Hahah, thanks a lot mate, doing what I can 😉 Absolutely, crypto is more risky, though if I compare investing all my money in Bitcoin or Tesla for example, I think Tesla would be the more risky investment. And when you say it's high yes, but only when you look at the past prices and since it's a new asset class it still has a long way to go. All crypto combined is still less valuable than Apple or Nvidia and far from gold so I personally think we are still early, but yes, diversification is the name of the game 👌 Cheers ma man

    Well great video once again my friend and this time I actually didn't yet realized that the crypto index are already a reality. Very good news for the crypto world!

      Hi Pedro👋
      Thanks for the kind words 🙌 Crypto indices are definitely a game-changer-giving investors an easier way to diversify across multiple assets without having to pick individual coins. It's a big step toward making the crypto world more accessible and structured for everyone.
      Cheers

    I'm fairly ignorant on crypto, but isn't it the case that they all generally follow BTC, whether its up or down? The thing about the S&P 500 is that not all the companies are in the same sector, (pharma, tech, auto etc.) whereas the CMC100 would all be crypto tokens exclusively 🤔
    If BTC crashes wouldn't it be likely that a crypto fund index would just come down in value overall?

    • @SmartMoneywithKai
      @SmartMoneywithKai  Місяць тому

      Hi 👋
      You're absolutely right-crypto indices like the CMC100 are inherently tied to the broader crypto market, which tends to follow Bitcoin’s lead. If BTC crashes, most altcoins usually follow, so diversification within a crypto index won’t protect you as much as something like the S&P 500, which spans different industries.
      That said, crypto indices can still add value by exposing you to a mix of projects, helping you catch potential outperformers. But as you noted, the overall market correlation to BTC means you’re still betting heavily on the crypto sector as a whole.
      So yes, less diversified than the S&P 500, but they can simplify crypto investing if you want exposure without picking individual tokens.
      Cheers

    Hi Kai, you mentioned you were going to make a video with your portfolio. What changes have you made, and how much have you allocated from your ETF to Bitcoin?😁

    • @SmartMoneywithKai
      @SmartMoneywithKai  Місяць тому

      Hi mate. I do those updates every month so next one will come soon. So far no major reallocation only $5K from ETF into BTC. Might do this one more time though if I see a little dip in BTC prices 👌

    I am not sure CMC100 is such an excellent idea - generally in a bull market BTC moves first, then later ETH, then some of the big alts, then other sectors, such as defi, ai, gaming, and meme. Problem is, that by the time the smaller ones move BTC might already be falling - while in the index it will still be represented heavily.
    Maybe it makes sense for long term investing? But then I do not think that long term investing into crypto makes a lot of sense, it is much better to just ride the bulls every four-five years and then cash out completely, especially in the UAE where there is no tax implication to every trade.
    But thanks for this video - I always learn a lot when you post :)
