BTC Combo Performance ExplainedβΉοΈ
π Amid the tariff-induced market crash, one of the best performing ALGA indexes β the one that held on for dear life β has been no other than BTC Combo. In fact, itβs only been down -4.76%, while a large chunk of the market was left in complete shambles. How did this happen?
The answer is β BTC Combo is a well-diversified index. While Bitcoin is its core asset, diversification is achieved thanks to the index encompassing a large range of assets built on the SHA-256 algorithm and approved by SEC for use in numerous countries. We are talking from Ripple to Stellar and a balancing percentage of stablecoins.
BTC Combo Composition:
π’ Bitcoin (BTC) β 60%
π’ Litecoin (LTC) β 10 %
π’ Bitcoin Cash (BCH) β 10%
π’ Ripple (XRP) β 10 %
π’ Stellar (XLM) β 5 %
π’ Stable β 5 %
Conclusion? Forget all eggs in one basket & invest smart to weather the market storms.βοΈ

New Wave of ETF Filings β What it Meansβ
The new SEC leadership has approved the 19B-4 filing for Bitwiseβs Bitcoin-Ethereum ETF, which has been postponed for quite some time. In turn, Chicago-based Cboe Exchange has filed four separate 19b-4 applications with the SEC, seeking approval to list and trade spot XRP ETFs. And while these one may be most known, weβve already seen dozens of new filings for ETFs under the new team.
π Some experts have gone so far as to call it a βraceβ for new altcoin ETFs, with asset managers filing for new products with the SEC every day β from $LTC to memecoins like $DOGE and $TRUMP.
This increased interest towards crypto by institutional investors is no doubt leading to wider market adoption and growth.
And whatβs the best way to make the most of it, while staying safe? An answer as old as time β asset diversification.βοΈ

Stablecoin use continues to expand across the world, from Europe to emerging countries.
In fact, multinational payment services giant Mastercard has recently reported that it had tokenized 30% of its transactions in 2024.
And with the new team in the White House, it seems US legislation is finally on board the stablecoin train too. One of the top priorities for White House AI and crypto czar David Sacks is addressing stablecoin legalisation in the United States.
Given all this, it seems stablecoins demand will grow both as a payment method and an assetβ¦And as per usual, we at ALGA are ahead of the game!

How ETFs WorkβΉοΈ
ETFs or Exchange Traded Funds are predefined baskets of assets, wrapped into a single fund and traded on an exchange.βοΈ
Generally ETFs can be split into two categories: traditional ETFs and crypto ETFs. The former typically include bonds, stocks, commodities and other traditional investment assets. Crypto ETFs, in turn, are comprised of a selection of digital currencies.πΈ
Shares of the ETF are traded on exchanges, much like individual equities. They can be bought and sold during regular trading hours, at market rates, granting investors the benefit of liquidity and flexibility, as opposed to other asset classes.
Crypto ETFs are of prime importance when it comes to bringing traditional, as well as institutional investors into the crypto scene, hence promoting industry growth.

π¦ Institutional investors are legal entities that participate in trading in the financial markets. Institutional investors include organizations like: credit unions, banks, large funds such as a mutual or hedge fund, venture capital funds and more.
What is their effect on crypto, you may ask? Itβs pretty simple really.
We are currently in a new era. One where traditional financial markets and the crypto arena are bound at the hip. And the crash of one no longer means the rise of the other.
While the correlation of the two markets has its upsides, the downsides are just as evident.βοΈ

US Crypto Reserve Explainedπ¦
President Donald Trump has signed an executive order, establishing a "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" (SBR) and a "United States Digital Asset Stockpile."βοΈ
The market, however, expressed disappointed as the order clearly indicated that the reserve will only include Bitcoin already held by the government β mostly from asset seizures.
Many investors hoped Bitcoin would be purchased to add to the fund, and that now seems unlikely β at least in the short term.πΈ
David Sacks, the Trump administration's "crypto czar," wrote on X that using the government's bitcoin holdings meant the reserve "will not cost taxpayers a dime." So itβs been a mix of good and bad news.
What does the future hold? Despite the reserve disappointment, it still seems Trump is dedicated to making US the capital of crypto, and U.S. Congressman Byron Donalds has recently shared that he plans to introduce a bill to ensure Trumpβs crypto reserve order cannot be overturned by future presidents.
Between other Trump policies, including the tariff wars, however, the market remains uncertain and volatile.π―

Institutional Investor Interest in Crypto Grows β
Times may be complex, but seems institutional investors are more bullish on crypto than we may have thought.
A report by Coinbase and Parthenon that surveyed 352 firm decision-makers shows that 83% of institutional investors plan to increase their exposure to crypto in 2025. Additionally, a clear majority (59%) plans to allocate more than 5% of their AUM to crypto this year.βοΈ
The interest is largely driven by hope for a more clear regulatory framework and their acceptance of crypto as a major asset class in every shape and form.
Among key findings:
π’ 84% of surveyed investors are using stablecoins
π’ 73% state that their firms are holding Altcoins as opposed to just Bitcoin and Ethereum
π’ 24% are looking to engage with DeFi β the latter figure being set to triple to 75% within just a few years
While regulation and market concerns continue, itβs interesting to see that crypto is more part of the picture for the big players than ever.
