He had felt that he did not quite have enough in BTC to sell during the last price rise to $20k, but I think that he got more frustrated than you, LFC, in terms of his NOT really wanting to talk or think about the BTC price falling matter... because that would just bring him further from NOT having enough to just retire... so largely just preferred to HODL through it all, as far as I understood to be what he was doing.
It takes a quite a bit of balls just to HODL through and to try not to think about the cyclical matters too much....
That is basically where I'm at..
I really have barely any BTC compared to most of you, which at the current price is not life changing either way, so I might as well just HODL..
I haven't made/accumulated much BTC since before the $20k peak, as my ways of accumulation are mostly eliminated by the modernization/regulation of exchanges shutting down/shutting me down, so it just is what it is..
Though, my retirement goal ambitions are much lower than most, I am satisfied with a more modest way of life, being a countryboy and all..
I don't need a $1mm estate and $500 dinners.. I only need a couple hundred K to become financially secure..
I think in my entire crypto career I have cashed out about 1.6 BTC for probably just under $10k total.. And I do regret it, but still have a bit more than that..
Most of what I have I have held from under $500..
I haven't ever really been in the position to "invest" into BTC, so all I have is what has been hard earned behind my keyboard, and I try to keep it..
I have a bit more BTC $ at current value than I have debt though, so their may be hope..
But, I am a BTC believer from a libertarian/anarchist point of view, so their is that keeping me HODLing too..
I think I have 0.12
BTC riding 1:1 on the Trump election, Trump wins, so that will be the biggest loss/gain for me in quite a long time..
I really should get back into trading, but all the shit in trading I have been through, and narrowly escaped, is almost like PTSD to me, and I just can't

I tried Binance for a bit and they just shut me down too

Can't seem to find a signature deal..
Don't know wtf I'm going to do to satisfy my accumulation urge yet but I'm looking..
