I am trying to sell some projects where I have small amounts of crypto, as it is too much trouble to check them all, and I will focus on the few 2-3 that are the best. The rule of 80/20, where 20% of the work is bringing 80% of the profit. I am going for that 20% only, ignoring anything else. Got a plan for the rest of the year to buy more HBD and Hive, more liquidity on ACROSS protocol and all the available Gem events on Kucoin, as they brought some huge profits for me in the past 12 months (you need KCS tokens to participate on these events, there are 5-6 of them every month). My brother came to show me how to use my Gnosis card. It is a bit complicated, but for what I understand I can set up some crypto in a wallet or deposit and a minimum amount on the card, like £100, and everytime the value goes bellow, automatically the card will change and add the crypto to my card as money. I even went to the shop and bought a drink to check if it is working (yes, it is).
Blogging/writing/video
Publish0x - $2.65 in OP and ETH this month. Plus 40 USDC from the Across writing contest.
Hive blog and Hive portfolio and layer2 blogs (Leofinance, SPT, UTOPIS, LENM, LBI, BRO, POB, DHEDGE, ARCHONM) - I got 233.65$ in HIVE and HBD.
TOTAL - $276.30 (gained HIVE Layer 2 tokens not included)
Play2Earn - blockchain games
Splinterlands main account - $43.60 from all sources: SPS Airdrop (finished now), DEC, CREDITS and Vouchers, (paid by the licence node), from playing games too.
Axie Infinity - 19 RON and 0 AXS - $37
Risingstar, Golem Overlord and other Hive games - STARBITS and Golem native tokens sold - 40 Hive - $15.24
Wombat Dungeon Master - NFT staking game - 0WOMBAT - $0
TOTAL - $95.84
Staking/Lending/Masternodes
BSC blockchain - 0 Cake ($1.50) on PancakeSwap and Mobox.io (BSC) pools - $8.75 MBOX for now = $10.25
Kucoin - Interest KCS and monthly rewards on Gems - $347
Binance - $0 this month, as most of its events are now not available in UK.
Crypto.com - 25 CRO - $3.63
Maiar (Elrond staking) - sold 99% and stopped - 1 EGLD left on staking with 9% APR and no impermanent loss involved, mostly bought. They just launched a new improved all-in-one app. Check it out. - $0.14
ACROSS protocol - Across is one good place to provide liquidity for the bridge, as you get not only a good interest, but also its native tokens as bonus on top of it. I just added some USDC and ETH for liquidity rewards. Check UMA Protocol to see how they make this bridge safer than other bridges, using Optimistic Oracles. Total =308 ACX - $182
I am also quite active on Discord, assisting the UMA and ACROSS teams, check them in there if you want to learn a bit more, and if you like to spot hidden gems long before they become well known. (This is one of my well guarded secrets).
Dappradar staking - RADAR - $4.52
Contests: $200 Pengu airdrop and $675 worth of BTC returned from Celsius
TOTAL - $1422.54
TOTAL crypto income in December - $1795 (£1430)
A simple strategy done for 2024:
Increase my Hive portfolio to 100K Power up, then until it will generate $50 daily via curation, which I will delegate in order to save time. Focusing on Hive next, for 2024, in order to get a big enough retirement pot, as I can completely automatize everything on Hive Blockchain to do the hard work without my involvment, so I can just write about what I like, when I like. Save more stablecoins in order to reach the final emergency sum of 100K in stablecoins, before my retirement, I hope. Get 1000 CAKE staked on Pancake Swap seems a faraway dream so I may focus on some mutual funds and shares maybe. Buy some of the spare crypto from my list (I need a lot of DEC tokens to stake cards on the Splinterlands lands - $1580).
Projects to follow up in 2024:
Hive - 16.68 % completed
Across - 41.34 % completed
Shares Account no.1 - 17.91% completed
Shares Account no.2 - 13.80 % completed
Cash emergency fund - 100 % completed
Projects that I tested in the past:
Read.cash/Noise.cash blog - stopped
Torum (some kind of crypto twitter) - stopped
Presearch Node - crypto rewards search engine, sold and stopped.
Coinbase - some free crypto quests, high fees, sold and stopped
Polkamon - Polychain Monsters similar with Axie - stopped
Cryptobrewmaster - game in Hive blockchain, stopped playing it.
Maiar (Elrond staking) - all-in-one app - sold 99% of it as it is not UK friendly.
All the best,
George
Why not...
...have fun and win rewards on my favourite blockchain games (Splinterlands- Hearthstone-like card game) (Golemancer - GamiFI NFT platform, great to accumulate more Hive) (Upland - real-life virtual land) (Holozing - Pokemon-like game)and (Rising Star - Music creators game).
...get crypto while writing on the Publish0x blog, using the Presearch search engine to maximize your income with PRE tokens. Use Torum instead of Twitter. I am also writing for crypto on Grill and Hive.
