For the week ending January 18, 2024, the portfolio closed at $503.11, up $33.52, or 7.14%.
Passing $500 was a genuine journal milestone, especially because it happened during a sharp Bitcoin pullback rather than a uniformly helpful market.
Market context
From January 11 to January 18, Bitcoin fell from roughly $46,369 to $41,262, while Ethereum declined from around $2,620 to $2,467. The pullback followed the launch of U.S. spot-Bitcoin ETFs as markets digested early flows and post-approval profit-taking.
The journal keeps TerraM and the portfolio separate. Options premium and position management remained the working focus, but the available record does not allocate the weekly NAV gain fully between sources.
