Making Your Crypto Work While You Sleep
Hello! Happy Monday!
If you are an artist or a collector in Web3, you know one thing: sales are not always steady. Some weeks are great. Other weeks are very quiet. But your wallet doesn’t have to be quiet too.
This is not a tutorial, and it’s not financial advice. But it might open your eyes and that’s something I have been using myself for quite some time. Let’s talk about DeFi — Decentralized Finance — and one of its most interesting tools: liquidity pools.
You don’t need to be rich. You don’t need to be a pro trader. You just need to be curious and careful.
Let’s get started!

Sunday Thoughts
What Is a Liquidity Pool?
A liquidity pool is like a big jar of money. People put in their crypto, and other people use it to swap coins. Every time someone trades, you get a tiny reward. Over time, those rewards add up.
It’s something I personally use with crypto I want to hold for a long time. Instead of just letting it sit there, I let it work for me. Slowly. Steadily. Without needing to sell.
You can do this on platforms like:
Orca (on Solana)
Uniswap (on Ethereum and more)
Aerodrome (on Base chain)
I like to use strong coins like:
BTC (Bitcoin)
SOL (Solana)
ETH (Ethereum)
These are coins I believe in for the long run. They are not hype. They are solid.
✅ Benefits
You earn without selling your art
You keep your crypto while it works for you
You stay active in crypto, even in slow market seasons
It feels good to see your money grow little by little
You don’t need to watch the charts all day
⚠️ Risks
Impermanent Loss: If one of the tokens in the pair moves a lot in price, your total value will be only on your other coin and you will temporarily not earn any reward while it stays like that.
Smart Contract Risk: DeFi platforms are made with code. If there’s a bug, funds can be lost. Use solid DeFi platforms, and not only one.
Scams and fake tokens: Always double check. Stick to real coins and well-known platforms.
Final Remarks
This is not a get-rich-quick trick. It’s not magic. But it’s something I use personally, and it helps me earn a bit from crypto I already believe in.
I don’t use it with random coins. I use it with crypto I would hold anyway — like BTC, SOL, or ETH.
DeFi and liquidity pools can help you:
Stay in Web3,
Grow your earnings slowly,
And explore something new.
It’s not for everyone. But it’s worth learning about. Start small. Read more. Ask questions.
Art is freedom. DeFi can be too — when you use it with care.
