- 0:00These are three of the assets that I
- 0:02see the most potential in for next year
- 0:04. And, honestly, I intend to add to my
- 0:07positions in the coming weeks,
- 0:09especially if the crypto market
- 0:11corrects. In my last video, I mentioned
- 0:14that I have some theses I’m investing
- 0:16in and that I’m taking on risk right
- 0:18now, just as I bought Bitcoin in recent
- 0:21months. And many people asked me to
- 0:23make this video to explain what those
- 0:25theses are. So, in today’s video, my
- 0:27goal is quite simple. I’m going to
- 0:29reveal three theses, explain the
- 0:30details of each, and at the end,
- 0:32explain the rationale—what I’m
- 0:34truly looking for and allocating into
- 0:36the crypto market right now to achieve
- 0:39good results throughout '27 and '28. So
- 0:41, if you’re hesitant about taking on
- 0:43a bit more risk in your portfolio or
- 0:45looking into an altcoin, this video is
- 0:47essential for you. Just before I dive
- 0:49into the video content, as always, I
- 0:51want to ask for your support. If you
- 0:52enjoy my work, leave a like and
- 0:54subscribe to the channel so I can keep
- 0:56updating you on everything most
- 0:57relevant in the crypto market. And here
- 1:00, I ask you to view this video as
- 1:02something even more important than just
- 1:03grabbing a list of assets; I want you
- 1:05to understand the rationale behind each
- 1:07of these investments. And from that,
- 1:09you can also manage to allocate and
- 1:11take advantage of positions in other
- 1:12assets. Perhaps the first point before
- 1:14I start explaining my first investment
- 1:16thesis is to explain something that has
- 1:18changed significantly in my positioning
- 1:20. In this cycle, I am absolutely
- 1:23focused on assets that are managing to
- 1:26generate results more considerably,
- 1:28especially from a revenue standpoint,
- 1:30and present better-founded
- 1:32characteristics. And naturally, there
- 1:35is no way to talk about these two
- 1:37characteristics without mentioning
- 1:38Hyperliquid. Hyperliquid is a very
- 1:41interesting project to me, first
- 1:42because I have been positioned in it
- 1:44since the very beginning of the project
- 1:46, essentially from zero, because we
- 1:48within the crypto community positioned
- 1:50ourselves heavily for the Hyperliquid
- 1:52airdrop because of one of our analysts,
- 1:55right? Yeah, and a great partner and
- 1:57top analyst here in Brazil, Juan, was
- 1:58one of the guys who brought Hyperliquid
- 2:00—the Hyperliquid thesis—to Brazil.
- 2:02He was one of the guys who brought it
- 2:04right at the pre-airdrop stage, and
- 2:05then we took more significant positions
- 2:07starting from the $ 10 mark. Even so,
- 2:10throughout this entire downtrend,
- 2:13especially when Hyperliquid had this
- 2:16last correction around the 30s and also
- 2:19the 44 level, we bought even more
- 2:21Hyperliquid. And it's interesting here,
- 2:24right? Because this is a project that
- 2:26goes against the market trend a bit. If
- 2:28we look at it from January to now, it
- 2:30has delivered a gain of about 300%. So
- 2:33it showed significant appreciation. I
- 2:35think the million-dollar question when
- 2:37we see something like this is quite
- 2:39simple. Why was Hyperliquid one of the
- 2:41few projects that appreciated even
- 2:43during a bear market? What did this
- 2:45project get so right to make this
- 2:47dynamic possible? And to understand
- 2:50that, we first need to understand some
- 2:53factors that are grounding and driving
- 2:55Hyperliquid. The first is that they are
- 2:58curing the crypto market bubble. Their
- 3:01focus isn't exclusively on being a perp
- 3:03DEX, meaning an exchange for futures
- 3:05markets aimed only at the crypto market
- 3:08. But they are looking primarily at US
- 3:11stocks and the whole regulation process
- 3:14. It's no coincidence that there were
- 3:17recently rumors of a potential
- 3:19partnership between Hyperliquid and
- 3:21Kraken's parent company, Payward, and
- 3:23also that they positioned themselves
- 3:25heavily in real-world assets, becoming
- 3:28one of the reference markets for
- 3:30trading oil, gold, and various other
- 3:32positions, especially in the
- 3:34aftermarket, that moment when the
- 3:36market isn't trading. In fact, during
- 3:39the Iran crisis, a large part of the
- 3:41funds used Hyperliquid to hedge
- 3:43positions and also to speculate in
- 3:46relation to oil. Furthermore,
- 3:48Hyperliquid was also mentioned
- 3:50regarding the regulatory aspect by the
- 3:52US government. One of the major factors
- 3:55that fueled the last leg up for
- 3:57Hyperliquid in early September was
- 3:58precisely during Trump's speech, where
- 4:00he mentioned the asset. And here, for
- 4:03me, we have perhaps the example of
- 4:04everything that is most interesting
- 4:05from the point of view of the
- 4:07protocol's health. The protocol managed
- 4:09to maintain a very significant
- 4:11operational volume there. So they
- 4:14managed to maintain an entire demand
- 4:16structure even during the bear market,
- 4:19while at the same time they managed to
- 4:22introduce new theses, such as price
- 4:24speculation theses focused on
- 4:26prediction markets, betting, other
- 4:28structures, and added to all that, also
- 4:31maintaining the real-world assets
- 4:33thesis. And with all that, they managed
- 4:36to have one fundamental thing: revenue.
- 4:39And here perhaps enters the big point
- 4:40of what I see within the crypto market.
- 4:43The crypto market until 2021,
- 4:45especially the cycle before last, was
- 4:48heavily based on creating narratives
- 4:51and generating FOMO among people,
- 4:54rather than necessarily having a good
- 4:57product or one that delivers any
- 4:59significant results. What happens
- 5:03starting in 2021? We saw investments
- 5:06from many venture capital funds,
- 5:08funding a series of projects. And '24
- 5:11and '25 were marked by the launch of
- 5:13multiple projects that changed
- 5:15absolutely nothing. We literally had
- 5:18the launch of hundreds to thousands of
- 5:21layer-two solutions that are now
- 5:23abandoned. If you look at the activity
- 5:27levels on networks like Scroll, or even
- 5:30other layer-twos that managed to
- 5:32develop minimally, like OTMK. These are
- 5:36very low compared to all the capital
- 5:37they raised. And what does this show? A
- 5:40lack of functionality within the crypto
- 5:42market. So, what do we have that is
- 5:43interesting? Hyperliquid goes against
- 5:45the grain of that. It actually built a
- 5:47product that is highly used and not
- 5:49used exclusively by crypto users, but
- 5:51one that has also attracted its level
- 5:53of institutional investors. And what
- 5:55was the practical result of that? They
- 5:58took a large portion of this revenue
- 6:00and carried out a token buyback process
- 6:02, currently burning almost 5%of the
- 6:03total asset supply. And in practice,
- 6:06the asset managed to renew its market
- 6:08cap, right? Hitting an all-time high in
- 6:10market cap and an all-time high in
- 6:12price. But what is the interesting
- 6:14detail? At the peak of the '25 bull run
- 6:18, Hyperliquid was at a valuation of
- 6:2015.5 million dollars. At this very
- 6:24moment, it has a market capitalization
- 6:25close to 17 million dollars. So, notice
- 6:27that it is very close, right? Thinking
- 6:30by this logic, the price should also be
- 6:32very close. But that is not what
- 6:33happens. At the peak of the bull cycle,
- 6:37Hyperliquid was around 43 to 42 dollars
- 6:39, and at this very moment, it is at 8
- 6:41dollars. So, why did it appreciate so
- 6:46much compared to its market
- 6:47capitalization? Precisely because of
- 6:49this burn process. So, Hyperliquid
- 6:52built a very interesting structure,
- 6:54which was this structure of position
- 6:56buybacks and token buybacks. And this
- 6:59strengthened the entire growth of the
- 7:01asset. So, as long as the asset can
- 7:04bring innovation and structure, that
- 7:06will naturally happen. And for me, it
- 7:09is one of the assets most prepared to
- 7:11capture institutional investors and the
- 7:13new regulatory context in the United
- 7:15States. It is no coincidence that we
- 7:16have been talking about Hyperliquid for
- 7:17a long time on this channel. We talked
- 7:19about it back on March 30th, right,
- 7:21when I commented on some altcoin theses
- 7:22that I would keep watching during the
- 7:24bear market. And the first thesis I
- 7:26mentioned was precisely about
- 7:27Hyperliquid. And we have also been
- 7:29talking about Hyperliquid since
- 7:31December 2024, precisely the period
- 7:33when the project was being introduced
- 7:35to the market. So it's not a new thesis
- 7:37, quite the opposite, right? It is a
- 7:39position we have been holding for 2
- 7:41years now. And this might be the first
- 7:43point I want to reinforce here for you
- 7:45regarding this next cycle. Two things I
- 7:47would be looking at closely. First,
- 7:49projects that are bursting the crypto
- 7:51bubble and that manage to generate real
- 7:53efficiency for the markets and projects
- 7:55that can capture revenue. And based on
- 7:57that, I think one thing that changes
- 7:59within crypto market positions is for
- 8:01us to actually have convictions. In my
- 8:03case, for example, I have held my
- 8:04position in Hyperliquid for practically
- 8:062 years. So, since the beginning of the
- 8:09project, I stayed allocated and I
- 8:11continue to be allocated with a
- 8:12significant portion, over 10%of my
- 8:14personal position within the crypto
- 8:16market and our community's portfolio.
- 8:19In this thesis, that was one of the
- 8:20factors that even helped our portfolio
- 8:22not to suffer so much from the market
- 8:24downturn. So this is just to show a
- 8:26dynamic of how theses that we have high
- 8:28conviction in can have a very favorable
- 8:30impact on our portfolio. The second
- 8:32thesis here is an almost logical and
- 8:34mathematical one. And it was a highly
- 8:36criticized thesis in recent months and,
- 8:38honestly, to me, the best allocation
- 8:41window for it has passed a little, but
- 8:43I still see it as a good allocation
- 8:45window. I am talking about Strategy.
- 8:48Strategy, for those who don't know, is
- 8:49a Treasury Company or a company that
- 8:51buys bitcoins. And what is the base
- 8:54thesis or the main thesis here for
- 8:55Strategy? Basically, they take
- 8:58advantage of market euphoria moments to
- 9:01manage to raise debt at lower prices
- 9:03and buy more bitcoins for their
- 9:05treasury. And it's interesting to
- 9:08mention that it has suffered
- 9:10significantly in recent months. If we
- 9:14look at the MNAV, which is precisely
- 9:16the relationship between bitcoins and
- 9:18the company's value, it went from a
- 9:20level where the company was worth about
- 9:23four times their bitcoin reserve, back
- 9:25in late 2024, to a moment when the
- 9:28company was worth less than what it
- 9:30held in bitcoins in its treasury,
- 9:32especially if we also considered the
- 9:34company's debts. And perhaps the peak
- 9:38of the criticism towards Strategy was
- 9:40precisely during the STRC crisis, which
- 9:42is the main instrument they use to
- 9:44raise debt, when the paper that should
- 9:47have been worth $ 100 reached less than
- 9:49$ 75 by mid-to-late June. Many people
- 9:53claimed at that moment that it would be
- 9:55the end of Strategy, that Strategy was
- 9:57failing and it would stop making sense.
- 10:00It was actually the moment we
- 10:01reinforced the Strategy thesis within
- 10:03the community, doubled down on this
- 10:05thesis, and shortly after, something
- 10:07very interesting happened, which was
- 10:09Sailor selling bitcoins and beginning
- 10:11to accumulate a large dollar reserve.
- 10:14And at first, everyone looked at this
- 10:16as if it were a great betrayal to
- 10:18Bitcoin. And in my view, it was not. In
- 10:20my view, it was Sailor sending the
- 10:22necessary message that the market
- 10:23needed to maintain the stability of
- 10:25Strategy. It is no coincidence that
- 10:29after this move in late September, we
- 10:31see the recovery turnaround of the STRC
- 10:34, which is the main anchor for the
- 10:36entire structure of Strategy's leverage
- 10:38, and at the same time, we see a
- 10:40stabilization of its MNAV above one.
- 10:44And here perhaps enters my main thesis
- 10:46on Strategy: Orlando, why are you long
- 10:48on Strategy? The logic is quite simple.
- 10:51The traditional market naturally does
- 10:53not have such a complete view of the
- 10:55crypto market. And basically,
- 10:57everything involving crypto gets a huge
- 10:59discount during the bear market period
- 11:01in the crypto market. This is something
- 11:03you come to understand over the cycles.
- 11:05What do you notice throughout the
- 11:06crypto market cycles? You will have a
- 11:08horrible year where the metrics of any
- 11:10project will drop 70, 80, 90%. And
- 11:14often, bad projects will die in this
- 11:15process, but good projects will become
- 11:17extremely discounted. And the
- 11:19traditional market also reflects this
- 11:21perception for crypto stocks. So when I
- 11:23look now at stocks like Strategy,
- 11:25Robinhood, Coinbase, to me they are all
- 11:27extremely discounted. Why? Because
- 11:30these are projects that generate
- 11:31revenue, have a very strong
- 11:32consolidation in the market, will not
- 11:34disappear from one cycle to another,
- 11:36and the moment the crypto market heats
- 11:38up again, volume and relevance will
- 11:39return to these projects. And in
- 11:41Strategy's case, the moment Bitcoin
- 11:43starts to appreciate and Strategy's
- 11:45treasury naturally manages to
- 11:46appreciate as well, this will generate
- 11:48a speculative factor that will create a
- 11:50premium on these shares, and
- 11:52consequently, this appreciation. So for
- 11:54me, my position in Strategy is a
- 11:56well-thought-out position. When I look
- 11:58at MicroStrategy today, I see a company
- 12:01with a 5.1 billion dollar reserve, with
- 12:03the capacity to maintain its dividend
- 12:05costs versus its 6.7 billion dollar
- 12:07debt for a long time. So, they will
- 12:10have the capacity throughout the entire
- 12:12market rally to leverage even further,
- 12:14and at the same time, the premium the
- 12:16market is paying for MicroStrategy is
- 12:18only 10%of its treasury size, and that
- 12:20premium tends to expand. So for me, if
- 12:22the market falls, it won't pay a
- 12:24premium lower or much lower than 1%of
- 12:26MicroStrategy's treasury, because it is
- 12:29far from the risk of bankruptcy,
- 12:30especially due to the size of its
- 12:32reserve. On the other hand, if the
- 12:34market appreciates, this 1.1 premium
- 12:36tends to become a premium of 2, maybe
- 12:392.5. This will mean doubling the result
- 12:41in Bitcoin. So, that is why I chose to
- 12:44allocate a portion of my Bitcoin risk
- 12:45to MicroStrategy, because I will remain
- 12:48exposed to Bitcoin, only a more
- 12:49leveraged Bitcoin. And for me, this is
- 12:51a smarter strategy than risking it on a
- 12:53random altcoin, because here I am still
- 12:55effectively exposed to Bitcoin, exposed
- 12:57to the entire Bitcoin structure in a
- 12:59model that has already proven itself
- 13:01over two cycles, just at a cheaper
- 13:03moment. And this was precisely when we
- 13:06explained this thesis, I explained this
- 13:08thesis on May 11th, at the beginning of
- 13:09the whole MicroStrategy crisis, when I
- 13:11commented on why Saylor wanted to sell
- 13:13Bitcoins and what the practical
- 13:14consequences of that would be for this
- 13:16dynamic. So, it was a second thesis,
- 13:19right, that once again required a lot
- 13:20of conviction from us; I honestly won't
- 13:22say that now is the perfect time to
- 13:23allocate to MicroStrategy. The perfect
- 13:26moment was when the NAV was close to
- 13:27one, right, practically at one, and we
- 13:28were able to take advantage of it. But
- 13:30I still see a very good moment there.
- 13:33And before I comment on my third thesis
- 13:34and then give an even broader view of
- 13:36other assets that I believe will
- 13:37perform well within this cycle, I want
- 13:39to ask for your support. If you are
- 13:40enjoying this video so far, leave a
- 13:42like and subscribe to the channel here.
- 13:44Also, if you liked this logic I
- 13:45explained here about Strategy and you
- 13:47want a video focused only on stocks
- 13:49associated with the crypto ecosystem
- 13:51and which theses I see, the good
- 13:52fundamentals that make sense to me,
- 13:54leave it in the comments and I can
- 13:56organize a second video for the week
- 13:58just commenting on stock and crypto
- 13:59theses that I see, right, associated
- 14:01with the crypto ecosystem, which I
- 14:03still believe are well discounted and
- 14:05well positioned. But let's go back
- 14:07there. The third thesis I want to
- 14:08comment on here is about Pendle. I'll
- 14:10comment on this one more quickly.
- 14:12Pendle, among these three, was the one
- 14:14that, let's say, suffered the most,
- 14:15that I'm mentioning here, it hasn't
- 14:16risen that much yet, but it has already
- 14:17had a very good recovery. And what is
- 14:19Pendle's great merit? It is precisely
- 14:21its entire ecosystem construction.
- 14:24Pendle continued to have a very
- 14:25relevant product, continued to get it
- 14:27right with Pendle V2, and despite
- 14:29having lost TVL, it continues to have
- 14:30TVL and a recurring structure. And on
- 14:34top of all that, when we look at the
- 14:36amount of tokens in circulation, it has
- 14:37basically reached very close to its cap
- 14:39, which avoids potential selling
- 14:41pressure and dilution. And when we look
- 14:44at the revenue factor, Pendle is a
- 14:46protocol that keeps generating revenue.
- 14:50And this, for me, is one of the most
- 14:52important metrics that exist, because
- 14:54Pendle now directs part of its earnings
- 14:56to its token structure. So once again,
- 15:00I look at a project that is generating
- 15:02revenue, that has demand, has
- 15:04significant market penetration in its
- 15:06segment, dominates more than 80 to 90%
- 15:08of its total supply, and manages to
- 15:11maintain its relevance. So, basically,
- 15:13that summarizes a bit of my positioning
- 15:15for this cycle. I tend to have a
- 15:17portfolio with few assets. I don't want
- 15:19to have a portfolio with, perhaps, more
- 15:21than 10 assets. And along with that, I
- 15:23intend to have a position in a few
- 15:25theses that I have wide conviction in,
- 15:28that are generating revenue and results
- 15:30at the moment, and that, mainly, have
- 15:33some structure to carry out token
- 15:35buybacks or distribute yields through
- 15:37their main token, which will generate a
- 15:40valuation effect, and this can be both
- 15:42tokens or tokenized stocks, which for
- 15:45me, I also believe should be entering
- 15:48the portfolio of all investors in the
- 15:50crypto market right now. And honestly,
- 15:53in this cycle, I intend not to expose
- 15:55myself much, or practically not expose
- 15:56myself at all, to be quite honest, to
- 15:58more speculative stocks. I'll give you
- 16:00an example, which is the Robin Chain
- 16:02tokens. I know there's a movement
- 16:04happening very similar to what we saw
- 16:06with Pump. Fun within the Solana
- 16:08ecosystem. Honestly, some people who
- 16:10know how to play that game will make
- 16:11money, but I believe the vast majority
- 16:12will end up losing, because those
- 16:14assets are assets without fundamentals.
- 16:15They are rising based on hype, and that
- 16:17will certainly make money for those who
- 16:19manage to time their entry and exit
- 16:21right, but for me, those aren't the
- 16:23type of theses I'm willing to invest in
- 16:25and feel comfortable allocating to. I
- 16:27believe a good structure, a good
- 16:29portfolio is this one. So, if I can
- 16:30give you one piece of advice right now,
- 16:32I would look at your altcoins and
- 16:33review them. Sometimes, making a
- 16:36strategic switch to other assets that
- 16:37have depreciated just as much as your
- 16:39altcoins, but are generating revenue,
- 16:41building structure, and have the
- 16:42capacity for recovery, could be what
- 16:44makes your portfolio take off,
- 16:45especially in this market moment. And
- 16:48with that, I know many people ask: "
- 16:50Orlando, what if I wanted closer
- 16:52guidance from you? Do you have anything
- 16:54like that?" And the answer is yes. For
- 16:56investors who allocate more than 1.5
- 16:57million reais. We have a mentorship
- 17:00model for that. So, if you want to
- 17:01understand a little bit more, I'll
- 17:03leave the link to my team's WhatsApp
- 17:04here to schedule a meeting with me.
- 17:06Feel free to reach out, it will be a
- 17:07pleasure to assist you. So, I hope this
- 17:09video has shown you a more complete
- 17:11vision. Don't forget to leave a like
- 17:12and subscribe to the channel. A big hug
- 17:14and see you soon.
