I think it was a wise decision moving your Hive into BTC for a while. Even Wax came up quite a bit over time. I am holding a relatively small amount of WAX that I actually bought over time using Steem author earnings. Not a huge amount, but percentage wise it is all gains.

When the NFT boom hit, I was able to pull enough money into fiat to eliminate 99% of my debt

That is amazing, man! I wish I had gotten more involved early in NFTs but for some reason I didn't get interested until it was pretty much too late. Probably because I bought some cryptokitties early on which ended up being worthless. By the time I wanted to trade NFTs, ETH tx fees were so insanely high that it wasn't practical for me.

Except Hive, that's the one holding I would be devastated if I lost it all or it went to zero.

Right, for all of my talk about being OK losing it, I still feel pretty invested in Hive. Especially with all the work and ups and downs I've gone through here. It is more than just an investment for me.
