Invested $200 in a multi-asset investment experiment, and the 24-hour profit result was unexpected.

As an investor who enjoys trying new strategies, I recently conducted an interesting experiment: I took $200 and evenly distributed it across 10 different tokens, investing $20 in each. Then I observed what happened within 24 hours. Behind this simple experiment design lie many thought-provoking investment insights.

Why Choose a Balanced Diversification Approach

Although $200 isn’t a huge investment, it’s just enough to conduct a meaningful multi-asset allocation experiment. I didn’t opt for a concentrated approach (all-in on a single token), but instead chose a balanced diversification strategy—$20 in each token. The benefit of this approach is that I can track the market performance of multiple tokens simultaneously, reduce the risk associated with the volatility of any single asset, and observe the performance differences among various tokens within the same time window.

Market Changes and Returns Over 24 Hours

24 hours is a relatively short investment period, enough to capture rapid market fluctuations but not so long as to be overshadowed by long-term trends. The 10 tokens I selected cover different sectors and market cap sizes, ranging from mainstream coins to small and mid-cap tokens. During this period, the market showed divergent trends—some tokens experienced significant gains, while others pulled back. The final results were quite surprising and broke some of my initial expectations.

Insights from Small-Scale Multi-Token Allocation

Through this experiment, I gained several interesting observations: First, even with a small amount like $200, reasonable diversification can capture the main profit opportunities in the market; second, the performance differences among tokens were much greater than I anticipated, highlighting the need for more professional judgment when selecting tokens; finally, although 24 hours is a short timeframe, it’s sufficient to reflect differences in market activity and liquidity among various tokens.

This $200 multi-token investment experiment gave me a more intuitive understanding of the token market. Although the returns were modest, this small-scale trial-and-error approach is very valuable for understanding market patterns and optimizing investment strategies.
