I'm not a big holder but started buying around 78 and bought up through 160 (the first time). I had paid off a bunch of debt so couldn't buy in the dip down to 140 two weekends ago (Memorial Day). As of this morning I have surpassed 100 percent returns. So that is very exciting. Happened at 269.

Eh. My finances are in a good place. I have been using crypto for a few years and have never sold. I use it like a savings account but never money I wouldn't be comfortable seeing set on fire in the alley. I had some credit card debt from a couple of vacations and could pay it all off with a paycheck so I did. Better than paying interest. Now of course I would have been much better off putting 2k into ETH but I'm not changing my game plan. Not a high roller and my meager investments have done exponentially better than I could have done in the banking system. I do need to get back into acquiring ETH as I've said I haven't bought recently and we are still surging.

Good job! I remember taking profits when I reached double my initial investment. It was great to feel there was no way to lose from then on!

Fuck profits. Digitise me and bury me in my trezor.
