He did the smartest thing possible. He knew what was going to happen but if he cashed everything reddit mob would butcher him in the streets. Instead he just took 13 million (enough for life) and let the rest ride down while remaining reddit saint due to diamond hands meme.

Adulthood is a myth.

Some people accidentally make babies and thus end their life. The boring rest of that life is seen and interpreted by their children as what being "grown up" means.
If you don't do make kids, then there is nothing that looks like this "grown up." state.

It's a misconception due to a systematic bias: Everybody has parents and so everybody's reference-grown ups are their parents. And parents are those post 30yo's who ended their life by having had kids.

There is no other thing to "growing up", it's not something desirable to become what is understood as being "grown up". Unless you think having kids is a good plan. If so, go for it, but that's another story.

Look, the dude made $13 million and is set for life. On top of this, Netflix is making a movie out of this and I have no doubt he will (ghost)write a best-selling book on the events.

If he had sold everything and precipitated an even bigger crash, there is the possibility that Reddit would have turned on him and some of the less immediate benefits (movies, books) would have lessened or gone away.
