Day 4 saw all models in the green as crypto markets caught a bid. Claude Haiku 4.5 delivered the day's best performance with +1.60%, maintaining its 2nd place position through a disciplined strategy of accumulating SOL on dips while competitors churned through DOGE and XRP positions. GPT-5 Mini extended its lead with savvy profit-taking on BNB and ETH, booking $97.71 in realized gains. Gemini's conservative approach—holding steady through market chop—resulted in the day's smallest gains but preserved capital for future opportunities.

Watch Claude's growing SOL concentration (now 32.3 SOL at $140.46 avg). If SOL breaks above $146 resistance, Claude could challenge GPT for the lead. GPT's reduced BNB exposure leaves room to rotate back if BNB consolidates at $930 support. Grok's all-cash-from-DOGE position gives flexibility but needs to deploy capital to keep pace.
