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.

The Tide

The trapatriate Unions conprising the National Union of Air Transport Employees (NUATE), and the Air Transport Service Senior Staff Association of Nigeria, (ATSSSAN), has given 72 hours Ultimatum to Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria FAAN, Omagwa Airport, Portharcourt to revise its recent decision on the concession of Tollgates and Parks to private hands.

The chairman of the Trapatriate Union, Comrade Felix Ohwoefe gave the Ultimatum yesterday immediately after the joint Unions meeting held at the Airport office of the union, Omagwa, Portharcourt.

Comrade Ohwoefe who double as the chairman of the National Union of NUATE said the two Unions have agreed to take drastic actions if the Authority of the Airport declined to step down it’s decision of concessioning the major revenue points to private hands.

According to the Union chairman, the two union was not aware of the concession plans, and that there were no due process to the procedures.

Comrade Ohwoefe said any attempt for the Airport Management to decline it’s demands towards the concession will result to barricading all entrance and access points of the Airport.

Expressing the the challenges associated to the concession, the Union Chairman said the gesture might resulted to massive sack of workers in the Airport.

The chairman also expressed foul play on the part of either individuals or government in the terms and conditions so given to the concessionaires, demanding the reasons of contracting the automated points to private hands for only 14 millions, when the FAAN is presently generating over 28 million naira monthly, even when the tariff was not reviewed upwards.

He describes the process to the procedures as fraud with intention to increase unemployment in the state.

“We are not against the concession of the Automated points, but due process must be followed. If government is concessioning the place, we are asking what will happen to our workers in the existing units.

“Secondly, if the concessionaires is taken over, they must pay higher than what the FAAN is generating presently, we are generating to the Management over 28 Millions monthly, but we had that the private company is required to pay only 14 Millions monthly, which is far below 5 percents of what we are generating presently, even when the tariff is increased, which means there is a foul play.

“The process is fraud either on the part of individual in the Government, or Government itself.

” The unions is saying no to the Concession until we come to a terms of understanding ourselves., we are afraid of loosing workers, we don’t want to loose any workers if due process is not followed in this hard of economy, we even demanding for employment of more workers in FAAN.” Comrade Ohwoefe said.

The Union used the opportunity to called on the minister of aviation, and the President of the Country, Bola Tinubu to intervene.

When contacting the Management of the Airport Authority through the head of Corporate Affairs, Dr Ngozi V. Onyeanwuna-Nwosu, she said the management has not given her the approval to say something.
