The Public Chainwave DeFi Portfolio
Watch, Grow, and Learn From a Live DeFi Portfolio
Read First:
In the following post, I’m going to share with you how I’m going to be growing a blockchain portfolio built from zero, only using proceeds from this newsletter/substack.At the end of the article I’ll provide a link to the live Ethereum wallet which will give you a bona fide look into how #defi / blockchain activity occurs.
If you find this concept interesting, please share with your friends
I really think we’ve got a first-in-history concept here.
Today I’m announcing that the net revenue from the Substack subscriptions are going to be represented in a fully publicly transparent Ethereum wallet.
I’m not using the substack money to buy a coffee, pay rent, whatever.
We’re putting it to work instantly in DeFi.
This is a brand new substack, so we’re starting with $0 in our portfolio.
Well, more than $0.
Thanks to Chainwave Blockchain advisory client and Newsletter Subscriber #1, Michael Bechert - I’ve been guiding him in the blockchain space for a few years now, with great success.
He subscribed to a year subscription and we’ve got around $215 to start with! Thanks Ser!
Before Ben’s consulting, I had little to no understanding of blockchain, the market, or any particular project.
Three and a half years later I feel like I have another degree. Ben was a huge help in exposing me early on to the basics, portfolio diversity, and things to avoid. Through Ben’s most recent council and inspiration, I have successfully participated in a defi project from a smart contract, staked it to farm, unstaked it into a streaming payment protocol that pays out by the second.
He has taken me past the surface and has done it in a way that a working professional, outside of the space, can understand and consume.

Overview
With my own private funds, I will match the equivalent of Every Net Subscriber Dollar (after transaction fees/tax) in an Ethereum Wallet.
The assets in the wallet will be used to grow the portfolio, showcasing various blockchain projects, and demonstrate how to use #defi
The wallet is 100% available for all to review and watch
I will provide the address and links to analysis tools for the wallet address
We will talk about projects and ideas for this wallet in the Discord server and posts
I will provide a posts to recap moves within this wallet so that you can be informed
At least monthly, I will report on the Deposits and General Portfolio Performance
And more ideas to come
Wallet Rules
I will not cash out of these holdings until at least Jan 1, 2025
Track value in USD
Will use a Stablecoin(s) for securing profits in USD
In case of family or extreme emergency I reserve the right to withdraw funds
I reserve the right to withdraw the lesser of 10% or $5,000 of the portfolio each year, which will be donated to a Puerto Rico charity.
Note: This is not an investment at all. This wallet consists of my personal assets, privately controlled.
The publicly viewable account is a #buildInPublic style initiative where I share the data on the growth of this substack along with this privately owned wallet.
Where’s the Wallet?
The wallet and all activity is entirely public on the blockchain. We’ll use a few tools to monitor and analyze the activity over time. Here’s 2 to start:

Before You Go: Get Signed up for Updates
Free tier subscribers will always be able to see the wallet and get the monthly-ish performance summaries.
As a paid sub, you get to see the details of the moves, get the weekly (or even daily) updates showcasing exactly the “what/where/how/why” of the portfolio moves, and access to more posts.
Plus, you get access to our community which will be filled with similarly-minded folk. And, your sub money is going into this wallet!
Ride The Wave,
