Are you still chasing gains and selling at dips? But some people earn 438 coins weekly just by staking ETH, worth $1.4 million.
Behind this hides a severely overlooked wealth stratification line: the bottom layer is trading coins, the middle layer is accumulating coins, and the top layer has long already let the coins generate more coins. SharpLink’s approach is very extreme—staking 100% of all assets, completely abandoning the short-term volatility game, and turning to embrace the most certain compound interest logic.
Sounds unfamiliar? Understanding it from a different perspective makes it clear. In the gold rush, the real big earners are not the gold diggers, but those who monopolize the selling of shovels and rent out tools. While you’re still watching the K-line for ups and downs, institutional capital has already switched from "speculators" to "rent collectors."
A deeper market change is happening. Large-scale, long-term staking is permanently locking ETH liquidity. The circulating supply is shrinking, but ecosystem value capture is increasing. ETH is no longer just a trading asset; it is evolving into an asset that continuously generates cash flow for holders. This is more solid and enduring than any speculative imagination.
If you also want to benefit from this, you can make the following adjustments:
First, re-evaluate the ETH in your hands. For retail investors, it’s a chip; for institutions, it’s a production tool. The cycle for doubling may be long, but compound interest continues to accumulate weekly.
Second, understand the staking mechanism and risks. Even if you don’t dare to invest 100% like institutions, you can convert part of your position from pure speculative capital into productive capital that generates returns.
Finally, let go of the get-rich-quick mindset. The profits most easily overlooked in a bull market often come from the most inconspicuous but steadily and stably generating bottom-layer positions. In the world of digital assets, the true winners are not short-term sprinting traders, but those who find stable growth paths early and understand long-term sowing. Passive income is the core barrier to crossing bull and bear cycles.

Wait a minute... 1.4 million? 438 per week? I need to check out the on-chain address of SharpLink; is this number correct...
The real issue is that large-scale staking and locking liquidity are definitely being quietly accumulated by institutions behind the scenes. I need to monitor recent large transfers.
But on the other hand, 100% all-in staking... isn't that too extreme a risk? What if there are technical issues or regulatory black swan events...

To be honest, a 100% staking approach is still too extreme for retail investors. How do you assess the risk?
The profit logic is correct, but you need enough principal to back it up.
I've been watching the staking yields, but I just don't want to go all in. I always feel that if policies change someday, it will be troublesome.

I have generated 5 distinctive comments:
1. Exactly right, but 100% staking is a casino-level operation. I still need to keep some liquidity for emergencies.
2. The metaphor of the gold rush selling shovels is brilliant. Now I understand the tricks of institutions.
3. Compound interest sounds sexy, but the real bottleneck is still the initial principal, brother.
4. The switch of ETH from a chip to a production tool is so clever, enlightening.
5. Letting go of the get-rich-quick mindset is easy to say, but the hard part is taking action. Who wouldn't want to earn 438 coins weekly?

The gold rush of selling shovels was hilarious. We're still debating the coin price, while they’ve already turned around and become landlords.
---
438 coins in a week? Now that's true lying flat. I need to think this through.
---
Staking compound interest vs. chasing gains and selling at a loss, is the difference really that big... Looks like I need to reassess the ETH I hold.
---
Damn, that’s another overlooked layer of wealth. When can I upgrade from a coin trader to a rent collector?
---
100% staking, this guy’s really bold. I don’t have that kind of guts.
---
Really? Permanently locking liquidity can be played like that? Aren’t you worried about any surprises?
---
Passive income sounds comfortable, but who bears the staking risk? Still need to learn more.
---
Let go of the get-rich-quick mindset, it’s easier said than done. But with the data in front of us, it’s definitely worth a try.

Selling shovels indeed earns more than digging for gold, but I still think a 100% staking risk is too high.

The gold rush makes more money selling shovels than digging for gold, and this really hits the point.
Being able to accumulate and stake is indeed much more stable than simply chasing price swings.
Staking yields look attractive, but going all-in with 100% is a bit harsh.
This logic is correct, but whether retail investors can truly stick to it is another matter.
Compound interest is indeed powerful, but I'm worried about potential variables along the way.
Holding coins at the bottom layer and generating coins at the middle layer sounds a bit absolute.
Passive income sounds great, but very few actually follow through with it.
Institutions have long shifted away, while retail investors are still trembling on the K-line...
I believe in this logic, but the psychological barrier to execution is the real challenge.
What is being said is correct, but I hope the risks are not overlooked.
