Hello everyone! This article will be interesting for those who hold cryptocurrencies, stake them, and earn income from it. Many in the cryptocurrency community have tried trading or futures trading at some point, but after that experience, they transitioned to passive income from farming, staking, or some similar types of low-risk instruments. However, all of them have a very simple principle: "buy, invest, earn interest," and many have liked it and continue to like it to this day.
But #defi are rapidly developing, and this is no secret. We see many diverse educational videos, articles, new projects, and methods that offer higher yields but come with increased risks. In particular, the investor must choose the price range in which they will allocate their assets, which may increase their income but also decrease it because when the price is outside the range, the income will not be accrued. There are also many pools where the investor must contribute two tokens at once, and when a transaction occurs between them by some user, the investor will receive a percentage relative to their contribution to this pool. However, the price of those two tokens must always be 50%/50%, and when the price of one of the contributed tokens changes, the ratio must also be 50%/50%. In the worst case, you will be left with just one token out of two; the downside of this could lead to losses of the principal amount that was at the beginning: you had a total of 1000 dollars in these two tokens, and after the investor is taken out of the range, they may be left with, for example, 990.
We have long observed that regular staking of a single token yields not very large returns, and the trend is towards further reduction. Therefore, more and more new tools for generating income are appearing.
An example could be $PENDLE , I once observed it. But recently, I went to the website of this token, and even the guide for beginners was quite complicated, and after reading more documentation, I realized that this tool is not for everyone and definitely not for beginners. Even if you study the guide provided by the platform well, you cannot expect quick returns, as practice is needed, and it’s good if you manage to break even, but the tool is very interesting.
With the help of this project and similar ones, it is possible to earn much more income than from traditional staking, but a strong foundation is needed here, and not everyone will be able to morally learn to use these tools, as they are designed to minimize risks, but they are still present (let's not forget about our beloved volatility).
Personally, I observe that regular staking is becoming less profitable and attractive; it is suitable for beginners in this field. But for those who want to further develop in the field of cryptocurrencies, these tools are simply necessary; there are quite a few of them, and all are interesting in some way.
Personally, I am very interested in trying these tools, especially the one I mentioned above. Staking is becoming less attractive and profitable, and to avoid wasting time and opportunities, it is critically necessary to be able to use these tools; the simple 'buy, hold, sell' no longer surprises anyone; this is not a coincidence but a natural evolution #DEFİ
