Nothing to do with your note, but what are the chances that in the past year or so you posted on twitter about personally liquidating an ira? 
I’m pretty sure it was your post I saw.  In any case, that post spurred me to look into it and I learned I was able to liquidate all of the contributions to my Roth without a taxable event. I did so and used it all to buy btc. 
So, if you do remember mentioning that on twitter, I owe you thanks, because I’m incredibly happy to have made that decision. 
Cheers!
