Staking crypto?
I tried staking crypto and shorting the same token on a CFD broker. Downside is that I can't offset gains and losses as Crypto is not a derivative. So it's a slightly bullish bet.
Then I found decentralized exchanges and saw the rates there for going long and short and dropped the crypto. You just have to find the right exchanges to go long and short the same token on two different ones and earn interest.
At the moment I only have Injective running on Paradex and Reya. This easily beats any other kind of interest earning market. But it's also work, as you gotta monitor if rates stay the same or not entirely flip. You obviously also have to "research" the interest behaviour of the token on the exchange as it can flip.
I've seen people here saying Crypto has no use. It's use is farming interest through trading activity.
You can obviously also just stake crypto and short the same token on one of those exchanges as a hedge and to farm interest on both (by staking and hedging/trading).
