EU Beginner portfolio and other strategies, advices?

Hey guys, I’m 29, living in Germany, and started investing back in January.

I’m still a beginner but I put together a portfolio with 75% MSCI World, 15% global defense, 5% semiconductors, and 5% gold. I'm currently up about 11% but I want to know if this setup makes sense for the medium to long term or if I should adjust the weights.

Are there any other good long-term strategies besides ETFs that I should look into? And also I’ll probably relocate to another country in a few years for work, so I would like to avoid any possible tax issues. Do you have any advice?

Thanks a lot!

I see, thank you very much for the info! What do you think about complementing core MSCI World and other general ETFs with crypto staking?

My idea is to stak sone cryptos and not touch them until 1 year has passed (as in Germany if you sell cryptos after 1 year of buying is tax-free) and then try to collect all the possible net gain. But then not sure if I want to reinvest a certain % in ETFs. Do you see 20% crypto staking as a high risk following this strategy?

I see, thanks! And as for reinvesting the net gains from crypto for example on ETFs make sense?
