Yes! but it’s more of a strategy than a hard exit.
I don’t believe in “selling everything and walking away.” To me, crypto is no longer just an investment — it’s a parallel financial system, a long-term thesis on decentralization, and a core part of how I interact with the world.
That said, I do have an exit framework for specific market cycles:
🔁 1. Cycle-Based Profit Taking
I plan to gradually scale out of certain positions (especially high-beta altcoins and memecoins) as we enter what looks like peak euphoria. I use:
On-chain data (e.g. MVRV Z-score, BTC dominance trends)
Macro signals (Fed pivots, liquidity shifts)
Historical halving-based cycle models
🛡️ 2. Stablecoin Allocation
Part of the exit is rotating profits into stablecoins, then earning yield through low-risk strategies (DeFi or centralized platforms I trust at the time). This keeps me liquid and ready for re-entry.
🧱 3. BTC & ETH as Long-Term Core
I don’t plan to fully exit BTC or ETH unless the thesis behind them breaks. They’re part of my long-term portfolio, much like gold or real estate would be.
🏠 4. Real-World Diversification
A portion of profits will be moved into real-world assets:
Real estate
Index funds
Private equity or angel investing
Cash reserve for peace of mind
🎯 5. Mental Exit Criteria
If crypto stops being fun, if the tech stagnates, or if I feel like I’m just gambling — that’s when I reassess my exposure. Money’s only part of it.
