Earn While You Sleep! Earning Passive Income with Cardano, Solana, and Caged Beasts

Published

on

Passive income is money you earn without investing too much time and effort. It usually requires some upfront work, but once established, you can pretty much earn money while you sleep. Affiliate marketing, dropshipping, and real estate investments are some popular ways to earn passive income, but did you know you can grow your investments with cryptocurrencies as well?

 

It’s true! Through the process of staking, yield farming, and participating in referral schemes, you, too, can rake in the big bucks without getting off your couch. In this article, we look at how you can earn passive income with Cardano, Solana, and Caged Beasts (BEASTS).

Cardano’s Staking System

Cardano (ADA) is a decentralised computing platform and cryptocurrency that has a unique approach to validating transactions while minimising energy consumption. It also offers a lucrative opportunity for investors to earn passive income through staking.

 

Staking refers to the process of validating crypto transactions on the blockchain network. Participants earn additional cryptocurrency by contributing to the network. To stake Cardano, users can create an account on reputable crypto exchanges, deposit ADA tokens, navigate to their staking page, select a staking duration, enter the desired amount to stake, and confirm the choice. Staking benefits include passive income and active participation in the network, but it’s important to consider the potential drawbacks, such as market volatility and selecting a reliable staking pool or exchange. Popular options for Cardano staking include Binance, Kraken, Crypto.com, CEX.IO, and KuCoin, as well as dedicated wallets like Yoroi and Daedalus.

Solana’s Staking System

Solana (SOL) is an open-source platform that utilises blockchain technology to offer decentralised finance (DeFi) solutions. It uses a proof-of-stake mechanism to secure transactions and has created a broad ecosystem of decentralised applications that are responsible for millions of dollars.

 

Staking SOL can be done through a crypto wallet. First, choose a secure wallet that supports SOL staking, like the official Solana Wallet or Exodus. Acquire SOL tokens by purchasing them on a crypto exchange or transferring them from another wallet. Transfer the SOL tokens to the staking wallet and delegate them to a validator through the staking section of the wallet, following the provided instructions. Once delegated, you can start earning staking rewards, typically paid out weekly. Keep in mind that specific personal information and minimum deposit requirements may apply, so be prepared to provide the necessary details and understand the staking process.

Caged Beasts’ Referral Program

Caged Beasts (BEASTS) is a fresh face in the meme coin world, which has adopted an attractive marketing tactic for its presale that is now live. Caged Beasts doesn’t offer a staking function but instead has a referral system.

 

Users generate a unique referral code which they can share with their family and friends. Once they use the code, the referrer receives a 20% deposit in ETH, BNB, or USDT directly into their wallet. The referral recipient will also receive an extra 20% in BEASTS tokens.

 

Earning passive income has become easier and less labour-intensive with the rise of cryptocurrencies. By staking Cardano and Solana, users can earn incentives by supporting the network. Caged Beasts offers a referral program that rewards users for spreading the word. Whichever method you decide to choose, you’re sure to generate income without extensive effort.

IPMAN Raises Concern Over Delay In Chinese Refinery Deal …Predicts Lower Fuel Prices Through Competition

Published

on

The Eastern Zone of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has called on the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) to fast-track the conclusion of the proposed Technical Equity Partnership with two Chinese firms.
IPMAN made the appeal amid growing concerns over the delay in finalising the agreement initiated through the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on April 30, 2026, between NNPCL and Sanjiang Chemical Company Limited as well as Xinganchen (Fuzhou) Industrial Park Operation and Management Company Limited.
It said the proposed arrangement was designed to revive and expand operations at the Warri and Port Harcourt refineries, noting that successful implementation would strengthen the downstream petroleum sector and restore confidence in Nigeria’s oil and gas industry.
The former Unit Chairman and current Zonal Secretary of IPMAN, Eastern Zone (System 2E), Comrade Inimgba Emmanuel Okubowei, made the call in a statement issued by the union after the Good Governance Summit organised by the Working People United (WOPU) in Abuja, and obtained by TheTide in Port Harcourt, at the weekend.
Okubowei expressed concern over the continued hardship faced by Nigerians due to the high cost of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), stressing that households and businesses were increasingly burdened by rising energy costs.
Okubowei stated that fuel prices would naturally decline once the Chinese partners commence full operations at the refineries, explaining that increased refining capacity and a more competitive market environment would positively influence pump prices.
The unionist further noted that the partnership would attract fresh investment, improve domestic refining output, increase petroleum product availability and create a more stable operational environment for industry stakeholders.
He maintained that healthy competition remains one of the most effective mechanisms for achieving fair pricing in the downstream petroleum industry and protecting consumers from avoidable price pressures.
The IPMAN official further argued that the entry of additional technically competent operators into the refining space would discourage monopolistic tendencies, improve operational efficiency and guarantee a more stable supply of petroleum products across the country.
He, therefore, appealed to the Group Chief Executive Officer of NNPCL, Engr. Bashir Bayo Ojulari, and the management of the company to accelerate all outstanding processes required for the successful execution of the Technical Equity Partnership.
Okubowei also called on the NNPCL leadership to publicly explain the reasons behind the prolonged delay and provide Nigerians with a definite timeline for the commencement of the project.
He emphasised that transparency, accountability and timely communication would strengthen public confidence in the initiative, adding that prompt execution of the agreement would enhance Nigeria’s energy security, create employment opportunities, stimulate economic growth and provide lasting relief to millions of Nigerians through more affordable petroleum products.

Gas Economy: Decade of Gas, Pi-CNG/ EV Deepen Media Engagement

Published

on

Poised to achieving an in-depth understanding of the Nigeria’s gas economy by it’s populace, the Decade of Gas Secretariat, in collaboration with the Presidential Initiative on Compressed Natural Gas and Electric Vehicles (Pi-CNG & EV), has deepened media capacity engagement across the country.
The media session, third in its series, and held at the Hotel President, Port Harcourt, recently, brought together 30 journalists from the television, radio, print, and digital media platforms to deepen their understanding of Nigeria’s gas development agenda and further enhance their reportage on the role of gas in driving economic growth, energy security, industrialization, job creation, and improved living standards.
Speaking during the session, the representative,  Decade of Gas Secretariat,Taofeek Balogun , noted that the port Harcourt engagement followed two earlier sessions held in Lagos and Abuja, a move that began in 2025.
According to him, Nigeria’s gas sector continues to record significant progress, with year-to-date gas production reaching 7.85 billion standard cubic feet per day (bcfd).
Domestic gas utilization has surpassed the 2 bcfd mark, while gas exports have risen to their highest level in five years, reflecting growing demand across power generation, industries, transportation, exports, and household consumption.
Balogun emphasised the successful completion of the Obiafu-Obrikom-Oben (OB3) River Niger Crossing by NGIC/NNPCL, describing it as a critical infrastructure milestone that would improve gas transportation across the country, support industrial growth, attract investment, strengthen energy security, and contribute to economic development.
As part of efforts to expand domestic gas utilization, he reiterated the Federal Government’s commitment to increasing access to clean cooking solutions. The government’s target is to distribute cooking gas cylinders to five million households by 2030.
Following the successful rollout of the programme across the six geopolitical zones by the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources (Gas), Hon. Ekperikpe Ekpo, implementation would now move to the state level, beginning with Bayelsa State in July 2026.
Under the initiative, Balogun said, 27,000 households in Bayelsa are expected to receive cooking gas cylinders within the year as part of the 1(one) million homes per year target.
Also speaking, the Chief Operating Officer of Pi-CNG & EV, Tosin Coker, highlighted ongoing efforts to expand the adoption of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and electric mobility solutions as cleaner and more affordable transportation alternatives for Nigerians.
He disclosed that the Federal Government is promoting the adoption of CNG across Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) through the conversion of existing vehicle fleets and the procurement of CNG-powered vehicles as part of broader efforts to reduce transportation costs and improve energy efficiency.
Coker said “more than 100,000 vehicles have now been converted to CNG nationwide under the initiative, reflecting growing acceptance of alternative fuel solutions and supporting the country’s transition towards cleaner and more sustainable transportation”.
Participants commended the initiative for strengthening media capacity and improving public understanding of developments within Nigeria’s energy sector.
The Decade of Gas Secretariat and Pi-CNG & EV further reaffirmed their commitment to sustained stakeholder engagement and public awareness as Nigeria continues its journey towards a gas-powered economy.
