Portfolio Updates 💼

SILO: From ~$16 to $17 now — surprising gain for a stablecoin!

BITPANDA: Down $13 to $904 (was lower mid-week). Still bullish here. Love their promo (3% Bitcoin cashback on transfers until Jan 2, 2026 + 0% deposit/withdrawal fees) 🙂 Deposited €100, used €15 to buy gold.

VFAT: Flat or +$1 today. ~$10 earned fees from one pool — will harvest and pump into Beefy (target $10k first).

KRYSTAL: Down >$50 due to XRP weakness (core holding). Long-term bet.

GAMMASWAP: -$6.3, normal in this week’s lull.

PENDLE: -$1.3, not thrilled given strong protocol.

MOONWELL: ~-$10 from market dips this week.

AAVE: -$5, LTV adjusted accordingly.

📊 Portfolio Snapshot (Latest)

Metric Value 💼 Total Deposits $7,332 🧺 Active Vaults 11 📈 Accrued Yield $1,579 💰 Est. Daily Yield $10.71

🧠 Portfolio Structure

🟠 BTC exposure: ~68%

🔵 ETH exposure: ~17%

💵 Stable/yield: ~15%

📉 Impermanent Loss present but covered by yield on most positions

➡️ Positioned for BTC/ETH recovery + yield meantime

✅ AI Tips: Bridging Now?

❌ NO for small positions (<$300)

❌ NO just for APY dips

✅ YES only if:

• Consolidating multiple positions
• Closing weak vault (AERO) & moving bigger sum
• ➡️ Stay put for now.

📈 Monthly Trend

Daily yield stabilized ~$10–11

APY lower than past (normal this cycle)

On BTC/ETH reversal:

• IL shrinks
• LP USD value grows
• Yield stays = double win

🧾 Final Summary

🟢 Portfolio healthy, sensible, cycle-positioned

🟡 Some “dead weight” (AERO), no need to cut now

❌ Bridging not optimal

✅ Beefy wins: auto-compound, hands-free, beats manual LP long-term

If BTC/ETH pump, everything flips instantly — losses covered. Fees already cover value drops = win-win positioning.

🧠 Quick Plan

• No new vaults — selection solid
• Scale biggest, liquid BTC/ETH LPs
• AERO = watcher, not driver
• Beefy auto-compound = time works for me
