100$ Split Into Top 10 Cryptocurrencies Every Week. Week #41 - Slowly Recovering
Intro
41 weeks in, we have experienced a lot of turmoil. This has been a pretty bad year for investing. Not only in the crypto space, but overall. Even the S&P500 index fund is down by more than 20%. But this week was a bit better for us. The amount of losses is slowly shrinking. But there is still a long way ahead of us. here.
About the experiment
Follow along my journey of investing 100$ every week split equally into the Top 10 cryptocurrencies at the time. I will post updates about the overall growth of my experimental portfolio as well as some insights about the biggest winners and losers of the portfolio.I am not including stablecoins in my experiment, and will not be staking or earning interest on any cryptocurrency in this experimental portfolio. The purpose of this experiment is to see if investing weekly in Top 10 cryptocurrencies is a feasible long-term investment strategy and to measure it against other common strategies. For the purposes of this experiment, I will also not take into account trading fees, so I can invest an equal amount of dollar value into each of the cryptocurrencies.
