ChatGPT has drafted a $1,000 crypto portfolio for 2026 intended to balance liquidity, infrastructure exposure, and differentiated growth opportunities. The portfolio is anchored by Bitcoin (BTC) with a $250 allocation. Ethereum (ETH) follows with a $200 allocation.
Beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, the portfolio emphasizes tokenization and infrastructure. Ondo Finance received $120 exposure to bringing traditional assets on-chain, reflecting demand for compliant, yield-bearing products. Chainlink was allocated $120, positioned to benefit from tokenization and cross-chain activity through its leading oracle and messaging services. Celestia received a $100 allocation, representing a bet on modular blockchain design that separates data availability from execution and consensus, potentially improving scalability and lowering barriers for developers if the modular thesis gains traction.
Render (RNDR) received $80. The project focuses on decentralized GPU rendering, aligning blockchain incentives with growing demand for compute power from AI, 3D graphics, and immersive digital environments. Kaspa (KAS) is allocated $70 as a technically differentiated proof-of-work network using a blockDAG architecture. By prioritizing fast confirmations and high throughput while retaining proof-of-work security, it offers an alternative scaling model outside the dominant Bitcoin and Ethereum frameworks. Arbitrum (ARB) with a $60 allocation, positioned to benefit from Ethereum’s growth by capturing activity and fees as users migrate to Layer 2 networks for lower costs and higher throughput.
Overall, the $1,000 portfolio allocates less than half to Bitcoin and Ethereum, with the remainder focused on infrastructure, tokenization, scalability, and compute-driven use cases. ChatGPT argued this reflects an expectation that the next phase of crypto growth will favor projects tied to real economic activity and technical utility rather than purely narrative-driven momentum.
