Diversification
Spreading capital across multiple assets, protocols, or strategies to reduce concentrated risk. In crypto: diversification across chains (BTC + ETH + others), across categories (L1s + DeFi + stablecoins), across stablecoin types (fiat-backed + crypto-backed + delta-neutral), and across custody (self + qualified custodian). Concentration in single positions has produced most catastrophic retail losses.
