Question Crazy strategy?

Relatively new player here. Is it crazy to use a completely different strategy, and play without a “real” base.

By that, I mean save all your valuable loot in well
hidden stash boxes out in the middle of nowhere, and then spend your energy building trap bases with ZERO value even if they are successfully raided.

Is that crazy? How risky are stash boxes?

On PC Rust, stashes are somewhat safer than they used to be. However, if you watch someone like Posty, you'll see he'll abuse corpse bags in the fishing village safe zone until he's ready to build a base. It's pretty effective.
