Other than holding your cryptocurrencies, it makes more sense to explore some of
cryptocurrency business ideas that could potentially be profitable, even with market fluctuations. (Image by Pixabay) |
In an exchange, you can operate either as a market maker or a market taker or trade as both. Market makers provide liquidity to the market and their charges a relatively smaller fee by the exchange. Market takers take away liquidity from the market and are charged slightly higher fees than the makers. Either as maker or a taker, here ways to make money in an exchange:-
• Buy and Hold (HODL) - This is where you have speculated that prices are likely to go up and you simply buy and hold on to your purchase. It is risky but can pay off handsomely. If you hold and prices plummet, continue to hold until things look up again to minimize any possible losses.
• Market making - This is a strategy applied by traders who essentially just buy and then sell crypto from other traders. By doing so, you provide liquidity that is vital to the market. The beauty of it is that you make money whenever the price of a crypto goes up and when it goes down. Every trade for you becomes a money making project.
• Active trading - This is trading by use of other tools like bonds, futures and options to provide the tradeoff between risk and gain with a certain degree of accuracy. Another tool that can be employed is arbitrage. This is trading the same coin on different exchanges and making money from the difference in prices, e.g. buying at $1 and selling at $3 on another exchange platform.

It is possible to make money in ICO business depending on the ways funds raised are used and invested. Assuming both conditions are met, making money through ICO is easy. You enter the market during the inception stage and get cheap-priced tokens. You later cash in by selling at a much higher price. Before choosing to invest in an ICO, ensure that it has a working product so that tokens can be put into use immediately. Also, ensure that the tokens are not ridiculously over-raised and have a maximum cap.
This model is especially feasible for newbies who are hesitant to venture into unchartered waters. A trader borrows money from others at interest and sells at the same prices. When the price falls, the trader buys back at the low prices and returns to the owners. The difference is the profit, and the lender of the money gets their interest, and it becomes a win-win situation.
This was the core way to earn digital currency when the industry came up. The idea of mining pops up an impossibility mental picture that mining can only be undertaken by a technical few. Fortunately, the reality is different. All that is required is a strong computer and mining software. Once these have been installed, mining is in progress. You can then sell your coins when prices double up, or markets reach new highs.
All the above business opportunities of making money using cryptocurrencies mean that with efficiency in operations, the industry has not seen any high profits yet. The potential to break records will be repeated over and over again, and so we have not witnessed anything from declaring their potential to make an all-time profit.

TIME THEORY OF MONEY
Posing the only real threat to (today's) happy scene are the politicians. In their grim global rebellion against the truth of time. They don scarecrow costumes of false disasters such as climate change, trade gap trumpery, debt doom or middle-class woe.
They scowl and leer and demand more power. They rant and vamp like vandalistic clowns of an apocalypse that will never come unless they summon it with their own lunatic fits and furies.
