Best post ever for a number of reasons. People including myself have seen your dedication and passion along with your value you have brought to hive. Your asset growth as you built your assets and so yes you should cash out if something comes up you feel is the right move. I fully support that and that's why we do what we do here on Hive. We help it grow because we own stake in it but it's still gotta pay the bills and so forth.
The one thing I don't like seeing is someone that comes on to the platform and cashes out 100% or even over 80% of their earnings and just repeats doing it on every post. To me that looks like someone not really committed to helping Hive grow and instead they are simply recycling content to cash out and make a few extra crypto bucks. I've seen people with huge potential get upvoted like wild when they first come on but after they see they are cashing out everything it quickly stops.
I also thinks it's great that you made a point about why you power down. As for the community all we can see if your wallet and when all of a sudden you see a massive dump power down you go hhmmm lol But a post like this is a VERY powerful thing and it doesn't even need to go into detail about why. I also feel like that's what Witnesses should be doing, projects that run on hive etc. Instead of asking for tons of money out of the DAO write updates, progressions etc and have the community vote and help that project if they want through your updates. When it's radio silence you start to wonder. Keep growing, keep contributing but also take care of yourself and family first because honestly no one else is going to. As selfish as that sounds it's the truth of the world we live in but through hive we have a bit of transparency and can understand when things come up and why people do what they do and in that we can all support each other. Keep crushing it!
Thanks man, yeah that was my thinking...I didn't want people to see my account power down and start asking if Jongo was fleeing the scene lol Literally just a week or two of liquidity to be able to get the funds I needed for this big move with my family.
Appreciate the post you made man, it really helped me make the final decision lol Cause wow, I was sitting here for weeks...Debating with myself lol
