Thanks yall. Just logged on and my BTC and ETH I bought a few years ago are in the portfolio.
However, I hit the "vault" section and that is empty and asking .e if I want to vault the assets.
@GRHorn @Nice Guy EddieWould yall recommend I follow that coinbase trail and pursue the vault? Or is there a better, preferred method?
Side story: To understand my dumb thought process...every 1 or 2 years, I put a little bit of money in financially risky shit that is super volatile. And I give it a minimum of 7 years. So thankfully, I read a very little about BTC and ETH in 2017 and said, "I'm in and I won't touch it until 2025." I've been telling people it will be at $0 or it will be at $100,000, who knows. IT took every bit of me in 2018 to not sell at 15k per BTC, or sell just one and play with house money.
I learned this sorta duration lesson when I analyzed Netflix after all these LA people (where I lived at time) were constantly harping how it was going to change the entertainment business. I got in very soon after IPO and I tripled my money in a month and sold. Proud of my $15,000 profit! And now, that 15k profit makes me mad just thinking about how different my life would be if I had told myself I ain't selling for a decade no matter what.
I'm 3 for 4 at the moment with this strategy but again, all 4 could go to zero since its all based on luck and timing. I've done crypto, biomedicine, cybersecurity, and pot. Pot is the only one I'm losing on so far.
