Life Of A Cryptopreneur

avatar

I was a reading a post by one of my favorite authors here on Leofinance, he is @acesontop. I love reading his blog because, most times I can relate to his post. So yesterday, he talked aboutWhen Sunday Feels Like Any Other Weekday You Know You Made it In Crypto. Honestly, I could relate because that’s literally my life right now. Although I haven’t made it big in crypto yet, but am one day and one step closer to achieving my crypto dream and goals. I’m a crypto blogger and crypto trader and like @josediccus profile description, I think it’s time I considered myself a cryptopreneur.

The beauty of being a cryptopreneur is that, you don’t work for anybody but yourself. Just like everyday feels like Sunday so do they feel like Monday. These days I don’t keep track of the days of the week because everyday is just a regular day for me. I forgot yesterday was Sunday and as usual in Nigerian and other places in the world, sunday’s are for going to church.

While you might feel like everyday is a Holiday for you because you don’t answer to anybody, don’t forget that it’s still not as easy as you think because when you don’t trade or make money from the market, the bills will choke you. I wake up everyday with the mindset of “Nobody owes me anything, if I don’t try to get the money today, I can’t afford to feed tomorrow”. This way it keeps me on my toes, so I don’t get lazy and carried away with the amount of freedom I have. Freedom they said comes with responsibility, you are free to do whatever you like but be ready to take responsibilities for your actions.

Blogging and reading stuff on Hive has helped me stay more focus in chasing my goal and also helped me in life. In as much as people find blogging on Hive to be stressful and strenuous, I find it to be therapeutic. Our minds are constantly buried in thoughts, why hoard them, when you can share them here on Hive and interact with people. This alone keeps me on my toes.

Talking about being a cryptopreneur, it’s funny how people who are not really into crypto call you and start asking you for financial advise. I get funny questions like, “which coin can I buy and within a month I get double my money”. That’s so funny because what do you actually see crypto as? A magically money doubling platform? While this is so possible at the same time it’s unpredictable, just the same way you are expecting your money to get doubled, your money can also get halved and there is nothing you can do. Because the market doesn’t care about your feeling, the market is going to do what it wants to do.

The Bear seasons is one of the dark days for crypto traders but the future traders see an opportunity during those days. I don’t do future trading but staying calm is all I got. That’s the reason I will always recommend staking because staking can help a lot during bear seasons, especially when you are living off the blockchain. You spend from your stake rewards to wait for bull run so you can take your profit.

Taking profit during the bull run is essential but my problem is knowing when to leave. Some times I do DCA(Dollar Cost Averaging) during the bull run so I don’t exit to early.

In all of this, am entirely grateful for crypto and its opportunities, because the rewards that come with crypto is enough to give you a decent lifestyle.

Great name cryptopreneur, for sure it will be added to the English dictionary. As content creators on Hive we usually don't get affected too much by the price and simply wait with patience to catch a good crypto price wave and sell during bull times.

It is the cryptopreneurs who keep building regardless of what the market is doing. That is what business people do. They understand that it means showing up each day, regardless of what is going on.

Those who understand this are the ones who are going to enjoy massive success on Hive. It takes time and effort but combine the two and it equals success.

I have never thought about it this way, and my handle is THINKR! Love that take, and definitely want to use it when blogging and sharing my thoughts here on Hive. I have also loved learning and exploring ways to be a cryptopreneur, and I'm looking forward to figuring out more how to make the time I spend here and elsewhere really work for me so that - one day - the weekends can feel like any other day to me and my family. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

The great thing about Hive is we get to combine both. We get to blog and curate content we read, enhancing our wealth while we are thinking and learning.

It is the best of both worlds. Through curating, we essentially pay ourselves to read.

That's something that I'm still trying to figure out, honestly. Not sure how curating works, but I'm definitely enjoying interacting and blogging here and there! It's nice to get even just a little return for the time spent doing something I enjoy anyways!

Curating is very simple.

Each upvote has a value. For example, the upvote I gave your comment is now worth .995 LEO at the time I did it. Since it is a 50/50 split, you get half as the author, I get half as the curator.

There is also a vote value in HP that you will also get 50% of.

So just by interacting with and voting on a post that I like, I'm curating that content - and consequently rewarding both the OP and myself for the simple action of interacting with it?

That might be one of the best decisions you could ever make.

Learn about the future before it arrives.

Cryptocurrency, especially on Hive, puts everyone in business. It is something that those who are successful realize. The focus needs to be long term and we need to keep building.

This is the key to all that is going forward. Thanks for relating your views on this. Crypopreneur...hadnt heard that one yet but it is a good one.

Cheers, I started calling myself a cryptopreneur simply because it's a way I've been able to use my Crypto profits to fund further Crypto deals. It's the life we're living.

And it only keeps growing.

The opportunities on Hive are becoming too great. It is truly amazing how things are expanding.

We will see another terrific year on Hive in 2022. Things are getting off to an amazing start.

I saw a headline that said gaming is now taking over DeFi in terms of activity. Since I didnt read the article, I am not sure the metrics used. Nevertheless, that does not surprise me.

Hopefully gaming on Hive explodes over the next year.

Cryptopreneur is a great lifestyle indeed !

As a question, do you have a 9-5 job or is Hive/crypto one of your main income? You do not have to answer, my question is out of curiosity hehe 😉

Nah, I quit my 9-5 job because it wasn’t giving me time to focus on crypto. Crypto is my main income before I found Hive. After finding Hive, it just made everything perfect and life made more sense. Working my normal 9-5, nothing made sense to me

Keep taking it in piece by piece. It can be overwhelming at first but, over time, you can grasp it.

Hive is a wonderful place to learn about this, Leofinance even better.

A lot of wonderful knowledge being shared here.

A Cryptopreneur is definitely something that sounds appealing but I don't think I am ready to make that move right now. Maybe once I build enough of an income then I might though. Taking profits during the bull season sure does seem a lot more necessary if you are relying on crypto just for living.

Yeah it takes a lot of courage, fear and doubts will come in, but once again, always take your time.

Keep feeding the bags and let them grow. That is the key.

Turn your focus to the 3-5 year time frame is my suggestion. By that point, hopefully you will be in a position, if desired, to make the move. It could some quicker of course but that is a safe range in my opinion.

True words, very well said! Once I leave my day job, I'll have every day hustle just like I am now but without thinking about working for others. Peace!

It's an amazing thing we have here on Hive. We're able to build long term wealth with out time and words. Our Hive accounts are our own businesses as @taskmaster4450 says, and we should treat them that way. If we shift our mindsets this way we will all be more successful within the ecosystem.

We are creating our own business, hence should apply sound principles of building and development to them. Over time, it will expand.

If we view ourselves as a brand, then we can see how all our activity actually enhances what we are doing.

Every day is my Sunday, once I do earn every day,I believe I have what to enjoy. Investing my crypto for one year May give me alot of money. Earning in Hive every day and be investing what you earn, that's my every day Sunday.

Nothing is as sweet as being in-charge of your time and life generally. Cryptocurrency and blockchain technology made this easily possible for many persons like us who have chosen to avoid the normal lifestyle of going about looking for jobs.

Just like you, I'm always proud of myself that I chosed to thread this path. Lastly, being a cryptopreneur, we need to stop seeing market cycles as something new and strange. Some persons are fond of many unnecessary comments during market dips. True cryptopreneurs keep doing what they do regardless of market sentiments.

Yeah, it is a different life. I went all-in on Crypto in late 2019 after being involved for some time and it has been really rewarding in many ways. There is so much scope and potential, it is insane.

Keep going because we are not only doing it for ourselves... we are carving out a path in the Crypto jungle that will help others who come after us :)
