Question...wondering what is a recommended or best strategy...if you take a profit on one crypto...like #XRP do you prefer to sell it and take fiat currency (USD or USDC) or do you swap it for #BTC? My understanding is that you pay capital gains tax either way. Looking for thoughts and experiences on taking profits. Thanks.

To add some meaning to my first post...my Mom bought me a necklace with this Ankh charm when I was a teen for good luck. I wore that for quite some time but then stored it. I gave it to my son and he now wears it. Here is an AI search on the meaning of it: The Ankh is one of the most iconic symbols from ancient Egypt, often called the Key of Life or Cross of Life. It represents life, both in the earthly sense and in the eternal, spiritual realm. 🕊️ Core Meanings • Life and Vitality: The ankh was used in hieroglyphs to write the word “life” and symbolized the breath of life itself. • Eternal Life: Frequently seen in tomb art, gods are shown offering the ankh to pharaohs, signifying the gift of immortality. • Union of Opposites: Some interpretations link the shape to the union of male and female energies—symbolizing fertility and creation. • Spiritual Power: It was often held by deities like Isis and Osiris, reinforcing its divine association with resurrection and cosmic balance. 🧭 Symbolic Use in Art and Ritual • Held by Gods: Deities are depicted holding the ankh to the nose of the deceased, offering the breath of life in the afterlife. • Amulets and Jewelry: Egyptians wore ankh-shaped amulets for protection and spiritual strength, and they were placed in tombs to ensure safe passage to the afterlife. • Combined with Other Symbols: Often paired with the Was (power) and Djed (stability) symbols to represent a complete divine blessing. 🔄 Modern Interpretations • Cultural Identity: Adopted in the 20th century by African and Neopagan movements as a symbol of heritage and spiritual continuity. • Christian Influence: Early Coptic Christians adapted the ankh into the crux ansata, a version of the Christian cross symbolizing eternal life. @Isa ⚡️ I noticed that you often wear one in your videos! Awesome! 👍 😎 👏 👏 🙏
