Increased strategic cash

Increased strategic cash

Due to short-term uncertainty surrounding Trump’s policies on trade tariffs and government reforms, we have temporarily allocated 10% of our clients’ funds to cash. This allows us to manage risk and provides the flexibility to buy back at a better price if the market declines further. However, our expectations for 2025 remain unchanged, which is why 90% of the capital remains invested in the market.

We remain positive about the structurally favorable developments in the U.S.: a pro-crypto government, the prospect of interest rate cuts by central banks, and strong institutional adoption. Trump has established a strategic Bitcoin reserve and introduced better regulations for crypto—both major steps forward. However, in the short term, this is overshadowed by uncertainty surrounding his economic policies, which is affecting not just crypto but also the stock markets.

The recent market downturn underscores the importance of investing in the right projects. In a young industry like crypto, these fluctuations separate the strong projects from the weak: solid investments emerge stronger, while speculation gets filtered out.

At Novelist, we conduct in-depth fundamental research on the coins we invest in. We focus on projects with real value that can withstand market corrections and continue to grow in the long run.

Crypto will remain volatile for the foreseeable future, which is why the best strategy is to invest with a long-term perspective and enter the market gradually. By investing a little each month, you remove emotion from the decision and steadily build your wealth.
