Pat yourself on the back, you managed to stay motivated during what has been a brutal bear market!

What has kept you occupied and level headed in Crypto, during this bear market?

Some potential options could be:

On-chain Governance participation, Staking, Yield Farming, P2E gaming, Simple Stacking (DCA strategy, stacking Sats or other crypto), interest in Crypto economic models, NFTs (trading, collecting, potential utility of a certain NFT), degen activities (leveraged plays, doggy token trading, riding hype trains to $0), technology (you enjoy the technology, and are having fun watching as the space, Developer/Builder, you’re a node operator, miner or validator, moon farming, or simply dreaming of getting rich when the bull comes back around.

I feel like this covers a lot of ground, but if you have something to add, please comment. Also, did a specific chain contribute to your motivation? I’m really curious to hear from the ones who have stuck around.

Me, I have been very active in on-chain governance and enjoy Governance drama, it’s very entertaining. For those of you who are involved in Cosmos Governance, you know there is no shortage of drama in Cosmos Hub governance. I find it worth it though. Cosmos and the Cosmos IBC ecosystem have some cool things being built and good features and software updates needing voted on.

I have also been finding new projects to stake tokens to earn some tokens passively. I’m newly staking my DOT, AVAX and am going to branch out to stake some other tokens like ADA as well. Would love to find some others to add to the list, so I’m open to suggestions. I’m heavily involved in staking in the Cosmos ecosystem, ATOM and OSMO are my biggest positions, but I have multiple others staked that I have gotten some smaller positions in or had airdropped and just staked rather than selling.

The main thing that takes my time now a days is trying to understand the different architectures between blockchains like Avalanche, Polkadot, Cardano, Solana, Hedera, Algorand, ICP and a few more. It’s a lot to take in, and requires a ton of repeated information, since I’d say I’m a pretty slow learner, but I’m persistent and it’s kept me entertained and investing throughout the bear market.

Why at has kept you motivated?
