Yes. If you choose an in-kind distribution at the end of the Pod’s term (like shares of stock or an ETF), those assets are yours to hold or sell right away. Craft does not impose any additional lock-ups on distributed assets.
We design the term-end options to give you maximum flexibility. For example, if you receive a basket of S&P 500 stocks or a broad-market ETF as your payout, you’re free to sell them immediately on the open market if you want. These are publicly traded, liquid assets, so you can convert them to cash, hold onto them, or even roll them into a new investment if you prefer to keep deferring taxes.
Just keep in mind: selling triggers a taxable event — you’ll owe tax on any gains since your original contribution — but you’re under no restriction from Craft to sell or hold.
