I will likely need to take some kind of gains somewhere along the line. As much as I used to hate ETH, it isn't quite as bad as it was. With gas prices lower than they used to be, it's actually feasible to do certain things on the chain. I'd like to have some liquid ETH just to make moves occasionally.
I'm pretty sure most of us are going to get "wrecked" during this bull market by taking gains way too early and number just keeps going up. The only problem with this is if we take too many gains or even FOMO back in at the top. I'm still convinced all the real action is going to happen in 2025 but it's fun to make small moves until then.
You are probably right. I didn't take gains like I should have last bull run, so I am probably going to be overly cautious on this one and take them way too soon. Hopefully I don't miss by too much though.
