That's pretty much exactly my thought. I hold a very very small amount in Polygon, but only in order to pay the gas fees for the Polygon network. So I never have more than a few US dollars worth in it at a time.

Yeah, I basically just do Monero, and I use it as a spend account and use it anywhere it's accepted. I don't invest in any cryptocurrencies because I don't think cryptocurrencies have positive expected return (it's all hype), so I keep the amount of crypto I have small.
