eToro Portfolio Update – March 2026 Investor Report

Welcome to the March 2026 portfolio update.

This report provides a full overview of portfolio performance, current market conditions, and strategic outlook. It is designed both for investors currently copying the portfolio and for those evaluating whether to join the strategy.

While the past months have been challenging, my approach remains unchanged: disciplined risk management, long-term vision, and strategic positioning during market cycles.

Performance Summary – March 2026

March remained a challenging month for the portfolio, even though performance across major cryptocurrencies was more mixed than in previous months.

• Bitcoin (BTC): +1.90%
• Ethereum (ETH): +7.14%
• Solana (SOL): -1.39%
• Portfolio Performance: -3.51%

While Bitcoin and Ethereum posted positive monthly returns, overall market conditions remained uneven across the broader crypto sector. Many altcoins continued to experience weakness, which weighed on portfolio performance during the month.

This reflects an important reality of the current market phase: even when large-cap assets show signs of temporary recovery, broader altcoin participation can remain fragile and inconsistent.

March therefore highlighted the continued divergence between major crypto assets and the rest of the market, with selective strength in Bitcoin and Ethereum not yet translating into a broader recovery across the full digital asset space.

After several consecutive months of weakness since the October 2025 highs, I continue to view this phase as part of a broader correction and consolidation process rather than a structural change to the long-term outlook.

Portfolio Allocation

The portfolio allocation remains unchanged and continues to reflect a balanced and diversified structure:

• Cryptocurrencies: 47%
• ETFs: 27%
• Stocks: 20%
• Cash: 6%

This allocation allows flexibility and positions the portfolio to take advantage of future opportunities while maintaining controlled risk exposure.

Crypto Market Recap – March 2026

March was characterized by continued uncertainty across global markets.

The crypto market remained under pressure due to a combination of macroeconomic factors and geopolitical developments. Liquidity conditions remained tight, while investor sentiment stayed cautious.

Bitcoin traded mostly between $63,000 and $70,000, showing signs of stabilization but lacking strong bullish momentum. Ethereum and altcoins continued to underperform, reflecting a risk-off environment.

One of the key drivers of volatility has been the ongoing geopolitical tension involving the United States, Israel, and Iran. Rising oil prices and global uncertainty have impacted all risk assets, including cryptocurrencies.

Despite this environment, the market has not shown signs of panic selling, but rather a controlled and gradual correction. This type of behavior is typically more constructive for long-term market health.

Market Outlook – April 2026

Looking ahead, April could represent a turning point.

Historically, April has been one of the strongest months for Bitcoin in terms of seasonality, often delivering positive returns. While past performance does not guarantee future results, this trend is worth noting.

After six months of corrections, the market may be approaching a phase of stabilization or early recovery. From a contrarian perspective, extended periods of negative sentiment often create the best long-term opportunities.

That said, volatility is likely to remain elevated due to ongoing geopolitical uncertainty and macroeconomic factors such as interest rates and inflation.

My base scenario is a gradual recovery phase, potentially starting in April, with continued volatility in the short term but improving conditions over time.

Strategy Update

The portfolio strategy remains unchanged for now.

I am currently evaluating potential optimizations and improvements to the portfolio structure, which may be implemented in the coming weeks. These adjustments will be gradual and focused on improving efficiency rather than making drastic changes.

If the market experiences further declines, I will likely look to increase exposure, particularly on major assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.

From a long-term perspective, current price levels represent attractive entry opportunities compared to recent highs.

Core strategy principles:

• Focus on high-quality assets
• Avoid emotional decisions during drawdowns
• Use corrections as opportunities
• Maintain disciplined risk management
• Think long term at all times

Guidance for Investors

For investors copying the portfolio, maintaining discipline during this phase is critical.

• Keep your copy active and avoid stopping during downturns
• Consider adding funds during market corrections
• Aim for a minimum investment of $2,000
• Avoid reacting to short-term volatility
• Focus on long-term growth

Periods like this are often when the strongest future returns are built.

2026 Objectives

• Grow Assets Under Copy above $400,000
• Maintain Risk Score at 6 or lower
• Improve portfolio structure and efficiency
• Outperform Bitcoin in the next market cycle
• Continue building a consistent long-term track record

Final Thoughts

The current market phase is challenging, but not unusual.

Corrections are a natural part of every cycle. What matters is how we position ourselves during these periods.

I remain confident in the long-term outlook of the crypto market. The fundamentals remain strong, and adoption continues to grow globally.

Volatility creates opportunity. Discipline captures it.
