I spent some time discussing passive income, staking, masternodes, mining, DeFi, and more with Seth "MineYour.Biz" Estrada. Learn how you can start earning passive crypto today with a focus on mining. *I accidentally used my webcam microphone, so my audio is awful, I apologize* As Seth describes on his YouTube channel, his channel is part mining report, part video podcast, part instructional media, and part hands-on building/making/DIY learning. ALWAYS fun! These are some of the questions we went over: • Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? • How and when did you originally get into cryptocurrency • Can you give us a brief introduction to what you cover on your channel? • What are your thoughts on censorship on legacy platforms and are you using any decentralized social media platforms? • Let’s talk about DeFi. What’s got you excited in the space? • How are you making passive income with cryptocurrency? • What are some of the misconceptions people have about mining? • What are your thoughts on diversification or are you a crypto maximalist? • If you had $100,000 to invest into an asset today, what asset would that be? • So where can everyone go to learn more about you? Check out https://www.mineyour.biz for more information about him and everything he has going on! You can also find him on many social platforms under @mineyour_biz. Are you participating in DeFi? How do you make passive income with cryptocurrency? Are you interested in trying out anything we discussed?

Support from the people around will come and go, but your self-worth will last forever. I don’t say this to be cynical, I say this to be realistic. If you have big dreams, people around you should naturally doubt them. Then it just comes down to who is taking it too far and negatively impacting your life. Getting past those doubts though can be very challenging as you will quite naturally have those doubts as well, but here’s the thing. Your self-worth and how you perceive your efforts is everything. That is what you must build up so that you needn’t rely on other people’s support because people and circumstances change and your life shouldn’t be dictated by how other people feel. If you enjoy and you love what you do, you will find a way to make it work and the support won’t matter. I don’t need people to support my content if I enjoy doing it because no one supports my playing video games, but I enjoy it. If you can treat your passion like entertainment, then it will be something you’ll do whether or not anyone else even knows you’re doing it. Focus on getting to a point where you feel internally motivated to do what you do and then keep pushing!

With so many hacks, bankruptcies, and now supposed crypto liquidity issues on exchanges, you should never leave your crypto on exchanges or any platforms other than your own wallet. Let’s talk about Celsius & Solend. This is my 524th episode/article. I put a great deal of work into this content so if you find it valuable, please do like, share, comment and subscribe! Recently Celsius halted all withdrawals and transactions from their platform. I know this feeling all too well with Cryptopia locking up over 1 million DOGE a few years ago for me that I would never see again. Some people like myself had to learn it the hard way, but through our experiences hopefully others will learn the easy way. I’ve said for a long time that to avoid any issues around ownership and truly embrace decentralization you should own your crypto in your own wallet. This means no lending or anything of this nature, it’s not safe. Time and time again we have seen even massive platforms having to halt transactions. Binance recently paused Bitcoin trades and withdrawals for just a few hours. Coffeezilla did a good breakdown of the Celsius collapse here: https://youtu.be/1nVG8PF4ECU - the main he touches on that I wanted to note was that Celsius had it in their terms and agreements that you were always lending to them and then they were lending out your lent cryptocurrency. This means they had special ways to get around actually having to collateralize your cryptocurrency and made it extremely risky with leveraged lending that is continually lent through multiple channels for the highest, riskiest yield possible. Recently after Celsius did this so did Babel Finance, a similar lesser known entity that does crypto lending etc. Luckily, Nexo is talking about taking on their accounts, but we will see what happens. With the market in a free fall one has to wonder what will happen to Blockfi or Crypto.com who has invested way too much of their money into marketing while their CRO token has plummeted nearly 90% from its all time high. While most cryptocurrencies are suffering, those leveraged with debt may all come crumbling down and the money used to back that may be lost too. Look no further than Celsius’ pinned tweet - https://twitter.com/CelsiusNetwork/status/1536169010877739009. The reason I’m writing this is simply another reminder that we need to keep our crypto in wallets that we control, preferably hardware wallets. We do this to avoid any possibility that your crypto could be misused or that anyone else even has access to it other than you. It’s not even just lending platforms, sometimes it’s the way entire chains operate. This can be seen with the latest happenings on Solana’s blockchain with the proposal to give Solend Labs emergency powers to take over a user’s account in order to liquidate their 170 million dollars worth of SOL. Since this would result in 46% on chain slippage, they want to do it via an exchange. The only way to achieve this would be to literally take the users funds and do it themselves so they are voting on whether or not to grant full emergency powers. Anything that touches lending is very risky and this is so clear to see that even though this is related to lending, the entire chain itself is at risk and willing to give 100% centralized powers over to a Solana entity. This shows how risky anything related to lending can get and why you should stay as far as away from lending crypto as possible. This tweet gives a great explanation of what’s happening with Solana - https://twitter.com/45BillionCrypto/status/1538534849958625280. The more closely a cryptocurrency is tied to lending, the riskier it is. We already saw this clearly with Terra’s LUNA and the Anchor lending protocol, so it should be clear why something like Solend isn’t going to be any safer. Don’t learn the hard way, go through the extra effort to secure your crypto. For me it cost almost 100K to learn this lesson, I hope for you it won’t cost anything. It’s always made me cringe to see popular finance gurus recommending people use platforms like Blockfi to earn interest on their Bitcoin without explaining that you could lose everything because of it. Have you ever lost crypto like this? Were you affected by the Celsius issues? Do you lend your crypto on any platforms?
