Degen was my main side hustle through most of 2024, bringing in a few hundred dollars extra per month... Now that the tipping era is over I need to find a new side income. Maybe I can sell some glitchcam NFTs but I don't expect much from that. I am working on a collection for Manifold. Hmmm... What's the next degen type thing in crypto where people can earn some income by doing some work? How are you making money in crypto rn?

I don't have any suggestions for you other than bounties, and that's kind of piecemeal. Hope to see more experimentation. 

I especially want to see more options for writers, artists, musicians, etc., to earn income streams in the Farconomy. Revenues from minting are barely even a trickle these days for most writers I know (myself included).

Reminds me of this piece: "the real unlock comes when people are earning crypto before they're ever asked to spend it."

It's an excellent suggestion and I should focus on bounties, I've known that a while but been lazy about it besides claiming 1 POIDH so it's a good reminder for me.
But yeah that's how I'd want to onboard people. "Here's how to earn some money" not "buy this gambling thing"

I went from making a few hundred a week on here to $0. I went full degen mode farming airdrops - Telegram, testnets, and DePin.
