Yes, if you believe in the project.  I mine Flux and also run several Flux nodes (they are decentralized compute) - to get away from big tech monopolies like Amazon.  I have been working with that project for a few years now and have over $3k in gains and really have not invested a penny other than some time and hardware cycles.

Yeah, I know some people like to downsize when they get older.  Not me.  Having too much space isn't a problem that I acknowledge.  That is like someone complaining about having too much money.  I can always find crap to put in extra rooms, etc.  :)

What is really crazy is there are people around here that will spend hundreds per month to rent storage space for their crap vs just getting a bigger place to live.
