This morning I received the latest update from the MN Fund which has only been active since July 2025. The fund is the brains of Michaël van de Poppe or known as @CryptoMichNL on social media like Twitter.
$10K invested last July would have returned a profit of $694 or 6.94% which is not terrible considering most crypto coins have lost significant value over the last 6 months. If this can be achieved in a market that is correcting then it will be interesting to see the returns when the market is pumping and on the up.
I receive the news letters and fund updates monthly mainly for the reason of keeping my options open. Having an investment being handled by someone else who is doing this as their job is also reducing the risk. This is just an idea and would like to see what the fund does later this year and how it tracks because having alternative investment options is where my head is right now.
Yes we know you sell your portfolio close to the peak or when you have your selling number triggered and then buy back low when the time is right. Keeping some cash to invest elsewhere just seems like the smart option so you are not having everything under your control. I am no trader and even though I do plan to learn these skills knowing it could take another 3 years or even 5 years to master them.
This last 6 months I have seen my portfolio half in value even though the crypto bags have been growing at a decent rate. The thought of being able to maintain the dollar value and growing that dollar value during these periods does appeal to me.
The end goal I have in mind is a monthly income from my crypto portfolio and diversifying that portfolio trying to lower the risk. At the current rate of growth even though the prices are not great which is an understatement I would need at least another 8 years to get to the levels I require. This should be sped up by the selling and buying back when we see the peak of this cycle. Being able to earn somewhere in the region of $5K-$10K monthly is my initial target and do believe it will happen if you keep grinding away.
These numbers are hard to visualize right now and why this could still be another 8 years away with the foundations being set for this to happen. Thinking long term is not the easiest thing to do, but at the same time one has to be realistic. Crypto is definitely not a get rich quick scheme and one has to have the patience to grind the numbers out. In March this year I would have been in crypto for 8 years and I feel that I have learned more than I have earned, but this thinking would be so different once the green candles return. It is funny how your thoughts reflect the market and nothing has changed besides the portfolio dollar values. We have basically experienced 4 years of negativity and thinking along with planning still needs to happen for when the markets do turn which they surely will.
