 Should I convert my corn into acreage? 🤔 
 That's my plan, but the acreages I'm looking at are too expensive imo. My price target is 0.25 BTC. Until then, I'm waiting. 
 Way too high per acre 
 Should have been more specific. Not .25 per acre. 0.25 total. 

That'd be way too high. 
 I think lots of people, including me, are going to borrow against our corn to buy acreage (when it makes sense).....instead if selling the corn.  
 Only if it's not all of it and you don't already have some. 
 One day... 
 You’re in control of your corn. 
You’ll never be in full control of your land. 

For me I will get that land when 10% of my stack can afford it. And by that time I hope it’s safe to borrow against. 

My logic behind this is if I need to flee because of any myriad of reasons, I still have the corn to go. 

No one  can really advise you on the best decision for yourself. But it is a good mental workshop to think. 

A way  I think of it is;
The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The next best time is today. 

Do you have goals and plans with this land that will suffer if you don’t act now?

I struggle with your same conundrum as well my friend. 

All our goals and dreams are different. 
 No 
 By 2030 - 2040 we will have more inhabitable land via space exploration.
There will only ever be 21m bitties in the entire universe.
Choose wisely. 
 i dont know if the exchange rate is good for that right now. weigh in what could change in your life between having corn or acreage.
