I need the fiat and I was planning to sell any way. Just decided to wait until I could maximize my near-term price.

If you've got a lot of speculation risk in this, I don't know what to say. Don't speculate with more than you stand to lose, i.e. be diversified so you are inherently hedged.

I am hedged because I am spending that cash on my expenses so I can have the time to do more important programming which is my best chance for having a good income again.
