We've all heard the fairy tales about passive income in crypto: “Buy coins, put them in staking, and the money will flow like a river.” But let's be honest: cryptocurrency is not easy money. It's risk, nerves, and constant swings. Want to know how it really is? Then read on. 🚀

1. Spot market: passive income or endless waiting?

“Just buy and hold,” they say. And you buy, wait, and the market goes in the opposite direction. So what then?

If you entered at the highs, be prepared to hold your coins until better times. This may take years.

You are advised: “Buy the dips.” You buy, and the asset falls even further. And now you're looking at a red portfolio and asking yourself, “How did I get into this?” 😩

Verdict: You can earn on spot, but it's not passive. It's “buy, buy more, and hope.”

2. Staking: a stable percentage... only on paper

Staking sounds tempting: you hold coins, and they earn interest. You lie on the beach while your money works. But the reality is harsh:

10% per annum sounds great, but if the coin drops by 50%, your interest won't even cover your coffee. ☕

Many projects lock coins for months. And what if you urgently need money? Goodbye, liquidity.

Verdict: Staking is not “live and rejoice,” but “hold and pray that the price doesn't drop.”

3. Farming: high percentages, high nerves

Farming is like an amusement ride: fun but scary. 🎢

Yes, 300% per annum looks great, but behind the scenes, projects print tokens like hot cakes. The more they issue, the cheaper they become. 🥖

And there's always the risk that the platform could simply be hacked or the founders could run away with the money.

Verdict: You can earn, but more often than not, you end up with a hole in your pocket.

4. Lending: stability... or frozen assets?

You lend your coins and receive interest. Sounds good, right?

But what if the platform collapses? Remember the stories with Celsius and FTX? 💥

And the interest? 2-5% per annum. This doesn't even cover inflation if your token drops in price.

Verdict: Lending is “it works as long as everything works.” But there are no guarantees here.

So what now?

Let's face the truth: passive income in crypto is a myth with elements of reality. Yes, you can earn if you do everything right. But that doesn’t mean the money will flow like a river.

Want passive income? Then forget about fairy tales and start with the questions:

“How much am I willing to lose?”

“Do I understand what I'm investing in?”

“Am I ready to wait for years?”

Crypto is a tool. And how you use it depends only on you.
