This year I launched https://www.tabbydata.com , on track to make $500/month by February.
I stake and lend cryptocurrency (stablecoins and blue-chip coins) on lending protocols and exchanges, and am at around $500 a week. Not really a side-project per-se, but I do quite a bit of calculation on ROI, where to move what share of my funds to, and occasional yield-farming strategies so it does take a up a good bit of time The goal is to have that stable enough so that I can quit and focus on my actual side pro…
How much are you staking to get that kind of return?
For yield farming you are dealing with higher risk, but you can easily get 50%+ APY on liquidity pools, compare that with the 12% above and it's not too hard to get to $500 a week
My Patreon makes >$100/mo. Currently sitting at $100. https://patreon.com/shawwn I figure since people are posting things making many times the $500/mo threshold, I should post something making many times less. :) It's actually pretty cool to just wait a few months and come back to a stash of money. Bought a Quest 2 the other day and didn't give it much thought, partly because of little eggs like this. The effort to…
In that spirit, search.marginalia.nu makes me about $70/month. Hardware investment is about $4-5k, plus a few hundred hours of development time. It was never intended as a means of getting rich though, so I am very grateful for the support.
600$ a month from my open source project ( https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash ) whose idea came from the infamous HN launch of Dropbox ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8863 ). I made that cool frontend for FTP server with an interesting twist as I've abstracted: 1. the backend storage: meaning it connects to a wide range of existing storage like FTP, SFTP, S3, Dropbox, ... 2. the authentication layer:…
> Most of the money comes from companies who needed various degree of customisation and support or didn't want to host on premise. How did you go about customer acquisition?
I designed a healthier men's dress shoe and was able to gain close to $100K in preorders in a Kickstarter this past September; https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/oaka/oaka-the-worlds-he... . Hopefully it doesn't stay a side project for too much longer, fingers crossed.

I'm sorry to say you're seeing the future in tea leaves, but I guess you're learning some stuff along the way.
I think that trading is ultimately a creative endeavor and no matter how one trades whether it's based on phases of the moon or insider information, one needs to know when they are entering and exiting the market. Trading is an incredibly fun and creative endeavor and as long as one takes the time to precisely define what they are doing, it is great <3
I mine cryptocurrency and make about $110/day. I have two L3++s, an AvalonMiner 1246, six RTX 3080s, an RTX 3090 and a couple older cards. It more than pays for the mortgage, and after electricity (residential rate) my profit is about $100/day. I also have the GPUs in a grow tent (designed for growing marijuana) with an 8 inch in-line fan hooked up to the supply of my home’s HVAC system. I’m heating my whole house wi…
I hate what you do (the very idea of all those KWs going to solve sudokus to get monopoly money) but at the same respect you. In the end if someone buys, why not sell.
As far as it being “Monopoly money”, >40% of US dollars were created since the start of the pandemic. Yes, there’s a lot of technical details there and most of that money isn’t “in circulation” and many would argue that the way this is being done shouldn’t be inflationary, but it’s never been done at this scale and we do have the worst inflation in 40 years so it may be a contributing factor. Contrast this with Bitcoin which has a fixed known supply, or other crypto currencies or tokens which may exist primarily for their utility, and IMO “Monopoly money” isn’t a fair characterization. Even BTC which has little in terms of “utility” can be used to move money equivalent to billions of dollars a far lower cost than the traditional financial system so it has its advantages.
At least blockchain related technologies enable new use cases, IMO it would be more fair to blame something like Electron and inefficient web technology replacements for native apps for being inefficient and wasting energy. But I wouldn’t do that either, it’s silly. The people making software don’t control energy policy and that’s the real issue.

That’s a $30,000 rig at least. So 300 days of mining before you just break even. I’m sure that in 300 days it will only be able to mine a fraction of what it does now due to increasing difficulty. I’m not seeing how this truly works out.
This ends when ETH2 arrives.

So ultimately, your open source code and business transparency[0] is what convinced me to pay instead of self-host.
Thank you for making it.
