It generally takes ~2 years to actually turn your unstable stock into a stable dollar value. As many who joined Square (Block now lol) learned - your idiot CEO can tank your money printing machine at any moment, and while your stock may have quadrupled since you started it's just one dumb move away from dropping a ridiculous amount, and all before you could actually turn any of it into a dollar.
