My crypto portfolio (as a software developer)

Hello Folks,

I never invested in crypto, but I built many things on the blockchain, I am more fascinated by the technicalities and the possibilities that the blockchain opens rather than the financial aspect.

But this year - for the very first time - I allocated a small part of my investments to crypto, in the following way:

**35% Chainlink** \- I am a big smart contracts believer, and at the moment Chainlink is almost the only player that brings real-world trustable data inside a smart contract environment. Deeply underrated in my opinion

**35% Ethereum** \- Still the backbone of the "build on the blockchain" ecosystem and necessary to keel alive all the L2 networks.

**20% Solana** \- Brings performances to the smart contracts world, and allows Rust or C++ as languages.

**5% Bitcoin** \- because is Bitcoin :)

**5% Polkadot** \- *high risk, high reward*. IMHO is the best technology on the market for chain interoperability.

This is not a portfolio I wanna *trade*, is a portfolio I wanna *hold* for 10/15 years :)

Can I have any honest feedback on it?

Thanks,
Francesco
