Deep潮 Introduction: This is a snapshot of stock allocations from inside the crypto circle—author privately messaged 120 KOLs, with 55 providing detailed holdings. The results show that the rotation from crypto to stocks is accelerating, with AI, metals, and energy as consensus overweight sectors. Humanoid robots are shifting from “watchlist” to actual positions.

Over the past few weeks, I conducted a private survey of all the KOLs I know, covering all my group chats.

Contacted about 120 people, with 55 providing detailed responses.

Survey period: mid-January to early February—some positions may be outdated, please consider accordingly.

Below are the survey results 👇

🎯 Personal Core Holdings

  • Humanoid robots are the biggest opportunity in the next decade—comparable to early Bitcoin buys
  • Memory shortage + AI supercycle + geopolitical supply chain → the most diversified multi-sector theme in this group
  • Pure memory shortage bet, confident over 2 years (from stock hedge funds)
  • INTC + AMZN, from US government/policy perspective
  • Big Tech → macro rotation into metals
  • SanDisk as long-term stock holding

Key Conclusions

  • Capital flow from crypto to stocks is real and accelerating
  • AI, metals, energy/power are consensus overweight sectors
  • Memory/semiconductors are high-confidence themes (multiple respondents provided detailed reasoning)
  • Robots/humanoids are becoming a strong narrative—several KOLs have already built positions
  • Space and defense are gaining actual allocations, not just on the watchlist
  • IBKR is the preferred broker for crypto natives entering stocks
  • @Citrini7 is the most followed stock KOL among crypto traders
  • Rare earths and uranium are popular contrarian/macro bets
  • European and Israeli defense stocks are emerging as standalone themes

This survey is far from scientific rigor—just a snapshot of private messages with people I know. But I believe it reflects the current rotation trends among smart traders/investors.
