Ask HN: What would you do if you made $10M from trading cryptos?

I would take 8M of it, drop it into safe "sleep-well at night investments" and then use the rest of pay off my house and live the rest of my days hacking away at whatever projects make me happy and living off the interest from the money.

I'd build my R&D lab and spend my time there.

Basically a complete machine and wood shop, nano-manufacturing compound, and materials warehouse, with a small server farm for various other things I generally have going on.

That'd actually only take about $2-5M.

Liquidate all of it and buy multi-family apartment complexes. Retire and use my freedom of time to create businesses I care about for the simple joy of creating value in the marketplace.

pull half out.
