Steady Cycle Navigation: Gate Private Wealth Management Offers You Portfolio Adjustment Recommendations for Volatile Markets and Exclusive Reviews

Reflecting on the past quarter, the cryptocurrency market exhibited significant volatility amid the interplay of expectations and reality. Bitcoin (BTC) reached a new all-time high before entering consolidation, Ethereum (ETH) ecosystem activity remained active, while the broader digital asset market sought new narratives. In such an environment, adjusting investment portfolios to balance risk and opportunity has become a core concern for every investor. This article provides Gate Private Wealth Management’s professional market insights, allocation strategies, and a review of overall past performance.

Interpretation of Current Market Volatility Characteristics

According to Gate market data, as of February 11, 2026, Bitcoin (BTC) is priced at $69,175.4, with a market capitalization of approximately $1.38 trillion, accounting for 55.93% of the market. Despite a slight 1.37% correction over the past 24 hours, it demonstrated strong support and resistance within the range of $67,920 to $70,526.3. Ethereum (ETH) remains steady at $2,026.74, with a market cap of $252.82 billion, up 0.2% in the last 24 hours. Overall market sentiment shows a divergence: “Neutral on BTC, optimistic on ETH.”

The main sources of current volatility include: 1) subtle shifts in macro monetary policy expectations; 2) phased profit-taking from previous gains; 3) rotation and revaluation of new and old ecosystem narratives (such as Layer 2, RWA, DePIN, etc.). For high-net-worth investors, this is not purely risk; it’s also a window for position optimization and structural deployment.

Allocation Adjustment Recommendations from Gate Private Wealth Management Perspective

During periods of increased volatility, Gate Private Wealth Management recommends clients evaluate their portfolios from two dimensions: “defense” and “opportunity,” and consider the following adjustments:

Core Asset Positioning and Balance

• Defensive cornerstone (recommended allocation: 40%-50%): Use Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) as the “ballast” of the portfolio. Their market depth and consensus strength can provide liquidity assurance amid systemic fluctuations. Consider using Gate’s regular wealth management products or staking services to earn additional yields during holding periods.
• Steady growth (recommended allocation: 30%-40%): Allocate to mainstream blue-chip tokens and top Layer 1 blockchain ecosystems that have withstood market cycles and have solid fundamentals. Use Gate’s rich trading pairs and deep data analysis to select assets with reasonable valuations and clear development roadmaps.

Flexible Tool Utilization for Dynamic Rebalancing

• Use Gate’s quantitative grid trading, dollar-cost averaging plans, and other tools to automatically execute buy/sell within preset volatility ranges, capturing gains from market oscillations and reducing emotional trading impacts.
• For assets with realized gains, consider setting trailing stop-loss orders to lock in profits, and rotate some funds into undervalued or high-potential sectors.

Expanding Income Sources and Leveraging Gate Ecosystem Advantages

• Gate Earn: Deposit idle assets like BTC and ETH into Gate’s flexible or fixed-term wealth products to earn stable interest income even when market direction is uncertain.
• Gate Staking: Participate in staking ETH or other PoS chains to earn network inflation rewards, representing a long-term passive income strategy.
• New Asset Discovery: Follow Gate Startup and early project launches. Under strict risk assessment, participate with small positions in early value discovery, which could be a source of excess returns.

Review and Reflection on Past Portfolio Performance

During the fourth quarter of 2025 and early 2026, Gate Private Wealth Management’s diversified strategies demonstrated strong resilience. Core allocations in BTC and ETH effectively mitigated downside risks, while early positioning in DeFi and Layer 2 sectors allowed some aggressive portfolios to capture structural upside opportunities.

Notably, Gate’s platform token GT showed independent stability this quarter. As of February 11, GT is priced at $6.96, with a market cap of $759 million, and market sentiment remains “optimistic.” As a value carrier within the Gate ecosystem, holding GT and participating in related benefits (such as fee discounts, voting, Earn products) has become a unique “ecosystem niche,” providing a different return correlation compared to mainstream tokens.

Future Outlook and Key Focus Areas

Looking ahead, Gate Private Wealth Management recommends clients pay attention to the following:

• Macroeconomics: The interest rate policies of major global economies and overall risk asset preferences.
• Technology: On-chain data for Bitcoin and Ethereum (such as active addresses, holding distribution), and ETF capital flows.
• Ecosystem: The upcoming major Ethereum upgrade and new narratives, as well as substantive progress in emerging public chains’ application deployment.
• Regulatory Developments: Clarification of regulatory frameworks in key markets, paving the way for further institutional participation.
