Most people are farming the wrong yields.

While you're chasing 20% APY on some sketchy protocol that'll rug in 3 months, the real money is in:

• Building reputation in quality DAOs (governance tokens appreciate)
• Providing liquidity during volatility spikes (when everyone else panics)
• Staking blue chips during bear markets (when yields actually matter)
• Creating content that ages well (your takes from 2021 are still paying)

The meta isn't complicated. It's just uncomfortable.

Stop optimizing for quick dopamine hits. Start optimizing for compound credibility.

That's how you actually maximize earnings in crypto
