The New Passive Income Model

For anyone active in the crypto space, the volatility of trading is a familiar feeling. One day, you're riding a bull market; the next, you're watching your gains vanish in a sea of red candles. It's a high-stress, high-commitment game that can lead to burnout.

That's why I've been shifting my focus to more sustainable, passive income strategies. Just a few days ago, I had a great experience with the Bitget $PTB Launchpool. By simply staking my $BGB, I was able to earn a solid return with zero stress, chart watching, or babysitting of positions. It was a clear reminder that you can make your crypto work for you without the grind of active trading.

I'm now diving into the new Launchpool for Switchboard ($SWTCH), and this time, the decision is driven by the project’s tangible utility.

For those unfamiliar, Switchboard is a fully decentralized and highly flexible on-chain oracle network. Oracles are a critical piece of the blockchain puzzle—they provide smart contracts with real-time, verifiable data from the outside world. Switchboard’s mission is to make this data easily accessible to developers across more than 10 blockchains, including Solana, CoreDAO, and Arbitrum.

This isn't just another token; it's a vital piece of infrastructure. By providing customizable data feeds, verifiable randomness, and secure storage, Switchboard enables new and complex use cases in the DeFi space that go far beyond traditional price oracles.

The $SWTCH Launchpool, with 5,000,000 tokens up for grabs, is a perfect opportunity to get involved with a project that has real, fundamental value. My personal strategy is to seek out projects that are building the core infrastructure of Web3, as these tend to have a more resilient and long-term value proposition than those focused on short-term trends.

I’m curious to hear your thoughts. Do you prefer a hands-on trading approach, or are you also looking for ways to generate passive income from infrastructure-focused projects?
