You're all right to hold on to some for the future, and I kept a couple just in case, but it does feel really good to have made money and cashed out. For many of the dream chasers here cashing out is a bedtime fantasy. I don't want to dream about it anymore. At what point do you cash out? At retirement or when you have a big purchase and need the money? Never? I hope the price goes to a million a coin and we are all rich off a few coins but I most likely won't live long enough to see that happen.
I haven't spent a coin since Jeremy was selling Amazon cards to Americans. So I've been saving for a long time. Time to spend!

I understand you, I guess it also depends on your circumstances. But I have to admit it strikes me just because I wouldn't do what you did (and in fact I'm not doing that, but cashing out very slowly and progressively). I mean, 20% of what you cashed out is already $100k, which is a reasonable amount. Let's say that $100k buys you 1 year of comfortable life while you still ride this choo choo train with 80% of your holdings. Its so clear for me that's the only way to go with BTC, to hold with as many coins as possible to see if it realizes its potential and the long-term trend continues, that it strikes me to hear stories like yours. But again: I guess its a matter of circumstances too. Congrats and enjoy
You're probably not as old as I am either. lol
Also you could always just buy 4 and wait for them to hit 100,000 but wow you have a lot of money anyway now so it's ok. I would probably cash out 50% when i get to 150,000 pound each
The mortgage is a good tax break.
