GSR has adjusted the asset weightings in its Core3 model portfolio, lowering its Bitcoin exposure while increasing its stake in Solana. The changes were implemented on October 21 following recent shifts in weekly price performance and 30-day market volatility for major cryptocurrencies.
Why it matters
Portfolio rebalancing shifts the risk-reward profile for those tracking these model allocations. Because these adjustments follow recent price gains and volatility drops across major assets, they reflect a change in how specific crypto-assets are currently being weighted in institutional models.
GSR reduced its Bitcoin allocation to 40.5% in its Core3 portfolio, while Solana was increased to 23.5%. These adjustments accompany recent market trends, including a 28.5% drop in 30-day volatility for Solana and a 48% increase in weekly trading volume for Ether.
