Small alts outrun Bitcoin and Ether this bull run
In this bull market, smaller crypto coins will grow faster than Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Result
If held over the last 3 months (Jul 24, 2026 – Oct 23, 2026): +46.7%. Over the same days: BTC +27.4%, ETH +30.3%.
What it holds
- Apps people use, 32% of the money, +70.3% over 3 months: HYPE (Hyperliquid), AAVE (Aave), ENA (Ethena), PENDLE (Pendle). Coins with real users and fees can grow fastest when money floods in.
- Big story coins, 32% of the money, +74.5% over 3 months: SUI (Sui), NEAR (Near), TAO (Bittensor), INJ (Injective), LINK (Chainlink). Smaller coins tied to hot themes can get a rush of new buyers.
- Meme rocket fuel, 18% of the money, +36.5% over 3 months: kPEPE (Pepe), DOGE (Dogecoin), PENGU (Pudgy Penguins). Meme coins often jump the most when everyone feels rich and risk-hungry.
- Hedge: sell Bitcoin, 9% of the money, −27.4% over 3 months: against BTC (Bitcoin). A short on Bitcoin pays off if alts beat it, and protects us if the market gets rough.
- Cash, 10%.
The plan behind it
Bitcoin and Ether usually lead first, then money flows into smaller coins that can move much faster. We spread bets across a few kinds of small alts: useful apps, big new stories, and fun meme coins. A small short on Bitcoin acts as a hedge, so we win if alts beat it even in a messy market. The cash is there to buy dips or add to the winners.
ZEC > BTC NEAR > ETH HYPE > SOL My positioning when investing any sort of size in this market (relative). Goal is to outperform lazy allocators who "just buy majors & chill" in this bull market, and win big. Higher.
What would prove it wrong: Bitcoin starts rising faster than the small alts for weeks, or the whole market turns down hard.
FAQ
Can I make one from my own idea?
Yes. Write what you believe in plain words at https://f.xyz/create. fxyz asks a couple of questions, builds the portfolio and shows how it would have done over the last 3 months.
Can I turn a post on X into a theory?
Yes. Reply to the post and tag @fxyzai. It tests the view in the post and replies with the 3-month result and a link.
What can it trade?
Stocks (Tesla, Apple, Nvidia), crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana), pre-IPO companies (OpenAI, Anthropic), indices (Nasdaq 100, S&P 500), commodities (gold, silver, oil, copper) and currencies (EUR/USD, USD/JPY). One theory can mix them, and bet for or against any of them.
How does it react to news?
On each check it reads the last two days of news on its biggest holdings and says whether the idea still holds. It can make one small change at a time: trim or drop one holding by up to 5 points. On autopilot the change waits 10 minutes so the owner can skip it; otherwise it asks first.
How do I run it with real money?
For real money, tap Make it mine, open your copy and choose Use real money, with an exchange connected: Hyperliquid, Lighter, Lighter (Robinhood), Backpack, Pacifica or Binance. The money stays in your own account there. fxyz can place trades, but it can never withdraw.
Can the AI get it wrong?
Yes. fxyz's AI turns the idea into holdings, and it can get that wrong: add a coin or stock that doesn't fit, or miss one that does. Check the holdings before you put money in. In your own copy, ask its chat to add or drop any of them.
What do the 3-month numbers mean?
What $100 would have done holding this mix over the last 3 months, at real prices. It is a what-if, not a record: past or simulated results are no promise of future ones, and nothing here is investment advice.
