Another short week of early huge gains tempered by a sell-off at the end of the week. My Bitcoin Stock portfolio still managed to eke out good gains for the week.
There were only slight changes made to the publicly-traded stocks with bitcoin treasuries list; a list I'm most interested in measuring my bitcoin stock performance against.
Other than one stock (Bitfarms), I have been buying these Bitcoin stocks for seven weeks now so, in that context, the results have been spectacular. In that time, I have seen MicroStrategy's BTC plan build up to a $2B value. Absolutely fascinating. Loved their plan to borrow off a debasing currency to buy into something that is appreciating in value-BTC.
Now, a Hong Kong public company - Greenpro Capital - appears to be doing the same thing and they should be added to the list soon. Last week Canadian fintech Mogo announced said they will but have yet to show up on this list of 29 (so far). But it is ironic that for a decentralized money, the amount of BTC held by centralized organizations is burgeoning.
So in the meantime, here are my returns for the last seven weeks based on the percentage gain/loss on the valuation tab on my discount brokerage summary page.
Enterprise
MicroStrategy (MSTR): +124.7% (Dec 31/20) +86.5% (Dec 24/20) +74.2% (Dec 18/20) +65.3 (Dec 11/20)+89.7% (Dec 4/20) +56.9% (Nov 27/20) +28.4% (Nov 20/20)
(Note- MSTR's BTC holding is up 87.0% (now over $2B.) while the stock has more than doubled at 124.7% over the last seven weeks.)
Square (SQ): -1.2% (Dec 31/20) +3.6% (Dec 24/20) +6.9% (Dec 18/20) -1.7% (Dec 11/20)
(Square's BTC stash has almost tripled in value from $50M to $140M. but their stock price has dropped -1.2%.)

Conclusion:
Another amazing week. Every stock in this portfolio is positive except for SQ.
So far, I've made 534.4% on VYGR, which is making more sense each week since they have an brokerage platform, so whether crypto goes up or down, higher volumes mean more trading dollars made on the platform. Do I sell? Not now. Their market cap is only $566M CAD vs Robinhood ($11B USD) and eTrade ($12.3B USD). Note VYGR CEO Steven Erhlich was a former top executive at eTrade.
I have started to add to positions. therefore, returns in the future will drop somewhat.
Happy New Year!
