What Does This Mean?
[ SLANG ][ CRYPTO ][ NOUN ]
A small leftover portion of a position deliberately kept after taking profit, held purely on the speculative chance the asset 'goes to the moon' later.
REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE
"I sold 90% to cover my initial investment and kept a moonbag just in case it really does 100x from here."
LORE & ORIGIN
Emerged from crypto trading communities as a risk-management compromise between fully selling and holding everything, 'moonbag' became the standard term for the calculated leftover stake traders keep after securing gains.
