1. So what is on-chain earning?
Simply put, on-chain earning can be summarized in the following 6 points: 'airdrop tasks', 'liquidity mining', 'task-based point earning', 'lending platform interest earnings', 'staking', 'playing games and socializing' to earn coins, etc.
'Earning coins on-chain' = Use your coins + time + interaction to exchange for rewards from the project.
2. Why is it popular?
This is mainly because it fulfills the fantasy of 'low threshold, high return' for ordinary people. Especially for new entrants, a single interaction can suddenly make us wealthy. Next, let’s see why this phenomenon occurs?
✅ 1. It looks like 'zero-cost money making'
In the early days, people just clicked a few times in their wallets, completed some tasks, and could 'get something for nothing', then waited for the project to airdrop coins.
For example: many people received thousands or even tens of thousands in airdrops later because they used chains like Arbitrum, Optimism, Starknet early on.
✅ 2. Low threshold, everyone can participate
You don’t need to invest tens of thousands, nor do you need trading skills; as long as you have a wallet and follow the tutorial, you can participate.
Newbies can completely close the loop from 'interaction → earn points → wait for airdrop', just like playing a task-based game.
✅ 3. Information asymmetry, seize early benefits
Web3 changes quickly, and the first batch of people to jump on new projects often get the most rewards.
So there is a group of people who specifically look for opportunities in the 'on-chain earning' information flow; the earlier you enter, the more likely you are to profit.
✅ 4. Combine social propagation to create a 'FOMO effect'
✅ 5. More 'exciting' than traditional investments
3. So how should we utilize it?
In fact, using on-chain to earn coins is super simple; many platforms have set up special on-chain earning sections in their financial centers. Take Binance as an example.
This is about on-chain trading of the big pancake, and you can see that even the level 3 positions have already been swept away by everyone. The lock-up period isn’t long.
It’s not hard to see that many big players are already focusing on on-chain trading, putting their assets in, benefiting from the platform's security and interest earnings; why not? Everyone can choose their own position for staking.
Moreover, recently solv has also been entering the RWA market, and when it completes its opening, we can directly purchase high-interest real-world items on-chain. Isn't that appealing?
