Crypto is following the 2020\u00a0script.<\/p>\n
(I just wrote about this\u00a0here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n And that means the crypto bull market is about to shift into high\u00a0gear.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s my top crypto to buy right\u00a0now\u2026<\/p>\n Five years ago, Helium (HNT) was just another failed wireless\u00a0startup.<\/p>\n Today, Helium deployed 1 million Hotspots in over 200 countries. Helium is the fastest-growing wireless network in\u00a0history.<\/p>\n How did it turn the ship\u00a0around?<\/p>\n In 2019 Helium decided it needed a way to reward<\/em> hotspot owners for providing internet coverage.<\/p>\n Helium discovered crypto tokens were the only way to achieve its\u00a0mission.<\/p>\n Helium debuted its HNT<\/strong> crypto token in 2019. Hotspot owners would earn HNT for providing wireless coverage. These tokens could then be exchanged for real US\u00a0dollars.<\/p>\n The creation of HNT was genius. The ability to earn tokens incentivized individuals to buy and maintain not just one, but multiple hotspots. After all, those Helium hotspots in your living room would be minting\u00a0money.<\/p>\n Giving folks a stake in Helium was the perfect motivator to get them to grow the\u00a0network.<\/p>\n Fast forward to today\u2026 Helium has created the largest IoT network in the world without laying a single cable. You can found it in every US state and almost every major city in the world, as you can\u00a0see:<\/p>\n Source: Helium<\/em><\/p>\n Alongside its IoT network, Helium is building out a fifth-generation wireless technology (5G)\u00a0grid.<\/p>\n You may know 5G is blisteringly fast, but the signal only reaches short distances. Signals only reach up to 1,500 feet if unobstructed. In cities, with lots of buildings, a more realistic estimate is 300\u2013500 feet. That means 5G needs hundreds of thousands of \u201cmini\u201d cell towers to\u00a0work.<\/p>\n Doesn\u2019t 5G sound perfect for\u00a0Helium?<\/p>\n Helium started shipping 5G-enabled in 2021. It deployed tens of thousands 5G hotpots\u00a0since.<\/p>\n 5G has been a real money maker for Helium. Two of the three largest cell carriers in America\u200a\u2014\u200aT-Mobile and Verizon\u200a\u2014\u200aare offloading excess traffic to Helium\u2019s 5G cells. Helium makes over $10,000 in revenue every day from these\u00a0deals.<\/p>\n Bitcoin and the rest of the has been basically flat for the last 3\u00a0months.<\/p>\n But not\u00a0Helium.<\/p>\n While BTC notched just 10% since July, HNT is up\u00a0120%.<\/p>\n During this consolidation, BTC crashed 32% at some\u00a0point.<\/p>\n Whenever you hit volatility in any market, not just crypto market, you want to look for assets that hold up while everything else declines. And that\u2019s what I see Helium crypto\u00a0doing.<\/p>\n It\u2019s also worth noting HNT is up 400% over the past 12 months, while bitcoin is up just\u00a0130%.<\/p>\n In my RiskHedge Venture<\/em><\/a> crypto advisory, we recommend adopting the the lopside barbell strategy.<\/p>\n The barbell strategy is a portfolio construction tool that strikes the right balance between risk and reward. It does so by investing in two distinct types of assets, on both extremes. On one end, you have \u201csafer\u201d assets like Ethereum<\/a> and Solana<\/a>. You would put the majority (75% to 90%) of your crypto investments in the safer\u00a0portion.<\/p>\n The other 10% to 25% would be allocated to \u201chigher-upside\u201d assets like Helium, Render<\/a>, or Hivemapper<\/a>.<\/p>\n So, your crypto portfolio would resemble a lopsided\u00a0barbell:<\/p>\n Bottom line: Put some money into Helium (HNT).
