Why rebalancing matters
A basket isn’t a one-time purchase — it’s an active strategy. When you invest in “Made in America” or “Defense Mode,” you’re not just buying a static set of tokens. You’re investing in a thesis, and that thesis has a specific allocation designed to maximize its potential. Markets don’t sit still. Prices move, some assets outperform, others lag. Over time, your actual holdings drift away from the basket’s intended weights. A position that was supposed to be 15% of your portfolio might balloon to 25%, while another shrinks to 5%. Your portfolio no longer reflects the strategy you invested in. Rebalancing fixes that.How it works
Cesto continuously tracks your positions against the basket’s target allocation. When your holdings deviate — whether from market movement or manual changes you’ve made — the Rebalance page shows you exactly what’s out of alignment and what needs to change. One click, and your portfolio snaps back to the strategy’s intended weights. The rebalancing engine handles the complexity — figuring out what to sell, what to buy, and executing it all in a single transaction.Regular updates
Baskets aren’t set in stone. The strategies behind them are actively maintained and updated to reflect current market conditions and the evolving narrative. When a basket’s composition changes — new assets added, weights adjusted, positions removed — your Rebalance page will reflect those updates so you can stay current. This means you’re not just rebalancing against a stale target. You’re realigning with a strategy that’s being actively managed to get the most out of the thesis you invested in.What triggers a rebalance
There are two main scenarios: Market drift. Prices move and your allocations shift away from the target. The further they drift, the less your portfolio represents the original strategy. Manual changes. If you independently buy or sell any of the assets in your basket, your allocations will deviate from the strategy. Rebalancing brings you back in line. In both cases, the rebalance engine accounts for the full picture — every position, every weight, every edge case — so you don’t have to think about it.Staying in control
Rebalancing is never automatic. Cesto shows you the opportunity and handles the execution, but you always decide when to pull the trigger. You approve every transaction. Some things to keep in mind:- Rebalancing involves swaps, which means transaction fees apply
- Timing is yours — rebalance when it makes sense for you, not on a forced schedule
- Review before confirming — you can see exactly what will change before approving
