Imagine you suddenly found $1 million sitting in your crypto wallet tomorrow morning. What's your first move?
Do you immediately take profits and lock in gains? HODL it all for the long-term conviction? Or split it strategically across different assets and timeframes?
Some would diversify across multiple cryptocurrencies and use it as a foundation to generate yield through staking or liquidity pools. Others might keep it as dry powder, waiting for the next major market pullback to deploy at better entry points.
What matters most—the narrative behind the coins you buy? Market fundamentals? Pure technical levels? And critically, how much of that million do you actually keep in your wallet versus moving to cold storage or using for active trading?
The real question isn't just what you'd do with the money—it's what kind of investor the decision reveals about you.

Hmm, the first reaction to receiving one million is definitely to transfer it to a cold wallet, or I won't be able to sleep.

Honestly, if I had 1 million in my wallet, I would just go all in on shitcoin and then wait to get rugpulled.

Once awake, just dive straight into LP, stacking gains on top of gains—that's the real play.

Cold wallets are on the move, while the rest are buying the dip in batches. This is the real way for seasoned investors to operate.

On-chain data shows that such hypothetical questions usually reflect traders' risk preferences rather than actual decisions. My observation is that those with millions in assets have long allocated according to contract deployment logic—70% cold wallets, 20% active positions, 10% sniper funds. Armchair strategizing is easy, but in actual operation, the mindset is completely different.
