Its just insane to have all your liquid assets invested in Bitcoin or any one thing for that matter.
some people never had liquid assets other than the few thousand bucks they threw into bitcoin. which turned, after years, into a little fortune. is it really wise for those guys to sell parts of the most successful financial decision ever? and sell for what? shares? gold? silver? crude oil? currencies? government bonds?
on top of this, for a long time bitcoin maximalist hodler who had bought @$100, would it make sense to sell btc to buy back lower in the midst of a multiyear uptrend?
it may be insane to have 100% in btc, but if it works out, the payout is also insane(ly high)
Exactly my case. I would like to diversify but for what ? Everything is shit compared to BTC.
Not to mention the huge tax problem. Converting my BTC to anything else would require me to lose about half of it in taxes and being registered as a money-launderer-terrorist by the government (extreme socialism and paranoia).
If you bought 100 coins at $100 each, it would make sense to liquidate some of that now. If you have a hundred thousand dollars worth of coins that's mostly profit, why cling to every last coin?
Because no choice really.
The day I cash out, I would have to leave my country for good and never come back.
That is what I am planing to do but right now is too soon, I am not ready.
Even though I got the gist of the message from the Afrikoin thread, it's much better this way. Can I tip you some bitcoins?
